The contention that Hopkin’s extensive anthropological fieldwork led to a unified theory is ____________ – close scrutiny reveals a ____________ of observations that, at times, even prove ____________ one another.
Blank (i)
redoubtable specious unbiased
Blank (ii) mere hodgepodge
coherent system
meticulous scaffolding
Blank (iii) inimical to
convergent with
susceptible to
不太清楚题目解释中 ‘…close scrutiny…’ implies that that the ‘contention’ was misleading
先从blank2入手,hodgepodge和close scrutiny可以知道是与unified相反
再看blank3 其中上下句有even连接 相互之间不是unified,是hodgepodge 更是一种inimical to one another 最后看blank1整句话负状态是specious了
