1.
Although she gives badly () titles to her musical compositions, they () unusual combinations of materials including Gregorian chant, Asian scale patterns and rhythms, electronic sounds, and bird songs.
A.
Exotic belie
B.
Eccentric deploy
C.
Traditional exclude
D.
Imaginative disguise
E.
Conventional incorporate
分析：首先看到although想到上下分句逻辑反义，后半句开头的they指代的上句的musical compositions, 下半句的意思主要是说这些资料结合了很多的unusual的东东，内容是很丰富的有不寻常的，但有although，所以题目应该是不丰富或者是不是不寻常既寻常的广义词，对应到E，也只有这个选项了
2.
Even though the folktales Partout collected and retold were not solely French in origin, his versions of then were so decidedly French in style that later anthologizes of French folktales have never () them
A．
Excluded
B．
Admired
C．
Collected
D．
Promoted
E．
Comprehended
分析：even though前后反义，上半句说这个P收集的东东were not solely——不唯一，也就是说别人那也有，下句的转折就应该说这个东东唯一，别人那没有，而空格前面有never, them指代的当然是P收集的东东，从来不如何如何要表示一个东西是唯一的话那只能这么说“从来不排除它，或者是从来不 不包括它”，所以A
3.
In arguing against assertions that environmental catastrophe is imminent, her book does not ridicule all predictions of doom but rather claims that the risks of harm have in many cases been ()
A.
Exaggerated
B.
Ignored
C.
Scrutinized
D.
Derided
E.
Increased
分析：上半句是个状语从句，含义应该修饰主句的谓语动词，上半句的意思大体是说对与环境灾难要来临的结论持反对意见，下半句有个but rather, 前面大致意思是她的书不是全盘否定上个状语从句中的assertion，就证明这个assertion部分是对的，但是but rather表反义，即使对也存在瑕疵，锁定在A/B选项中，这里我就解释不清为什么选A不选B了，总之就是分析到这感觉就是说的“被夸大”了的事，所以选A
4.
There seems to be no () the reading public’s thirst for books about the 1960’s: indeed, the normal level of interest has () recently because of aspiration of popular television documentaries.
A.
Quenching
moderated
B.
Whetting
mushroomed
C.
Curtailing
waned
D.
Ignoring
transformed
E.
Slaking
increased
分析：第一个空格应该填的词根public’s thirst对应，冒号后面表解释上半句，同义，先看because 后面，说是因为电视题材流行的aspiration,前面说的是books,所以这里应该是说books被电视所取代了，或者是books的重要性，人们对它的兴趣已经转到电视上去了，而第二个空格前the normal level of interest对应的是应该是public’s thirst for books, 那第二个空格就因该填一个动作向下的词，C直接选出来
5.
Despite a tendency to be overtly (), the poetry of the Middle Ages often sparks the imagination and provides lively entertainment, as well as pious sentiments
A.
Diverting
B.
Emotional
C.
Didactic
D.
Romantic
E.
Whimsical
分析: despite可知前后句反义，后半句说这个poetry能够启发人，带给人entertainment根据despite前面应该就是不启发人，让人感到没意思的那种感觉，C说教的，尊尊教诲的，这个词又是负面词又很符合原意，所以C了
6.
One of the first () of reduced burning in Amazon rain forests was the chestnut industry: smoke tends to drive out the insects that, by pollinating chestnut tree, allow chestnuts to develop.
A.
Reformers
B.
Discoveries
C.
Casualties
D.
Critics
E.
Beneficiaries
分析：冒号表解释作用，冒号后面说烟让这个昆虫离开，这个昆虫呢对C树是有危害的，昆虫一走C树就生长的和好，就是说烟对C树有好处，前半句说减少reduced燃烧，那烟就少，烟少C树就不好，所以空格填一个负面词， 且要表达一种结果，应该是C了
7.
The research committee urged the archaeologist to () her claim that the tomb she has discovered was that of Alexander the Great since her initial report has been based only on ()
A.
Disseminate
supposition
B.
Withdraw
evidence
C.
Undercut
caprice
D.
Document
conjecture
E.
Downplay
facts
分析：我在看到only这个词的时候，就武断的判断出第二个空格应该填一个不好的词，按着这个思路，锁定的有A，C，D，看第一个空，后半句说人们认为她的报告是有瑕疵的，那么前半句就应该说test这个报告的真伪，这个报告指代的是her claim, document不仅有文献的意思，还有证明的意思，所以我直接选D，但是错了，这道题求高人指点~

1。第一空应和unusual对应，然后根据although，把第二空锁定在e选项上

大梦先觉UID：2984318

第七题同感选D，答案是什么呢？

老冯UID：2886825

3# 大梦先觉
答案给的是C，百思不得其解

老冯UID：2886825

2# dark白

原来如此，谢~

天媛UID：2681448

第七题我觉得C也有道理，only的判断挺合理，我觉得the claim就是后面的
initial report，后面说这个不好，所以前面有人催他改正这个不好，所以是
undercut

6# 天媛


可是我觉得问题是并不是催“她”，而是催的考古学家，而且即使催的是她自己的话为什么就不能用“证明"呢？呵呵

大梦先觉UID：2984318

是不是因为C中caprice是"怪想"的意思，相比conjecture这个中性词，更能表现其负面含义？

老冯UID：2886825

8# 大梦先觉

是因为她最初实验的怪想？？？
感觉没法确定这么理解是对还是不对啊~呵呵~
