CONTINUED决定了后两空和前面的A CONTEXT OF JARGON AND VERBAL DELICACY有一致的作用（至少应该不违背）。偶当时看到这个题就觉得JARGON有意思，JARGON的特点是行话，不好理解，有点像EUPHEMISM，而他的特点正好对应IMPENETRABLE，所以就选了C。结果对了。

additional/further都在暗示着第二个空格是比identified更进一步的动作（而不是简单的重复identified），那么surpassing/emulating/mimicking可以备选。但surpassing明显不符合常识(似乎further的太过了)，emulating虽然有“效仿”的意思，但是主要强调的是“赶上并超越”；而mimicking，就是很客观的、甚至很“生物”的“模仿”。完全可以从第二个空格找出答案的哦。

这题我第一反应也是finite。但是其实是不对的，因为broader不是limitless，所以反义词不应当是“有限的”，而应当是“未拓宽的”，specific显然是更好一些吧，“细致的，精确的，具体的”。

说的不对的地方，再讨论。

解释：首先可以肯定是，Rhetoric和hyperbole是上下义词的关系。修辞当然应该是包括夸张，使用夸张的。with……是独立主格结构做伴随状语，所以空格二填“使用，包含”等含义的词就可以。所以C直接就对了。如果把握不准确词汇的含义，D可能也被候选，但是D的第一个空明显不是人话，所以不对：）从第一个空格入手比较麻烦，这里就不多解释了。

解释：between...and...一定是表达对立对比关系的，至少不是一致的关系，所以在GRE考试中直接考虑为对立对比关系。credit with是归功于谁的含义，但是搞不清楚P和B到底是什么关系，所以空格二是无法填的（除非有背景）。因为如果P和B是对立关系，那么空格二填的是“支持，赞扬”的含义，否则填的是“否定，批判”的含义。所以只能看空格一，选一个能表达“思想陷入双方对立冲突”的含义。A和E候选（C不可以的理由是C通常指一个观点或论点内部的自相矛盾，而不是双方的斗争和冲突）。但是E的第二空格“替代”跟支持和反对都没关系，所以A为正确选项。当然，如果有背景，知道立体学派，知道这些画家的关系，那么这个题目就好做的多了。
