答：感觉这题如果反意做的多的话就不会选B，BLENDING和INDEPENDENTLY共同决定了空中意思要表达独立的反意，混合的同意。

答：上半句能够看出是Rhetoric和Reason的比较，无法定意；再看下半句，是一个明显的粘连结构，其中hyperbole对第一个空起到决定。先看第二个空，可以填C和E，再看第一个空，结合第二句意思，E明显不对，所以得出答案。

这个题目首先over代表着前者对于后者的优势，所以cloud/prevail/triumph/都是可以的，D:reverberate作为“反响，回声”被排除；E:trample和on连用，不和over连用被排除。这时候大体知道前半句的意思是“修辞似乎（在热烈的辩论中）强于推理”，with是一个限定情况，那么第二个空格实际上就是找出能使得前半句意思成立的with情况。注意，hyperbole（夸张法）对应重复的是rhetoric（修辞学），那么rhetoric在前半句是占了上风的，在with中也绝对不可能是A:subsiding（衰减）。在剩下的B:yielding（屈服）,C:engaging中选择，比较符合句意的应该是C。屈服的意思不太讲得通。

第二个空重复credit没有错，但是值能够排除掉E:substitute。不过，既然出现了B/P两个人名，而且明显是两派的不同意见，那么第一个空格应当表现出两派意见不同，crossfire/paradox被留下。另外，第一个空格还要表现出两派和C的关系。deliberation是商议、考虑的意思，如果是考虑或者商议，就只需要商议B/P就可以了，和C就完全没有关系了。paradox只表示了矛盾，跟第三方C也没有关系。所以crossfire是符合逻辑的。

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。

. P0 \5 V5 {1 m
1 W# _) j! f9 k: s- T1 p解释：从第二个空格看，重复blending正确，所以B和E都要候选，因为这俩词在“混合，合成”这个层面上完全是可以相互替换的。（请参考WEBSTER或COLLINS词典）；这时要根据第一个空格判断，magical修饰“exemplar（模范，榜样）”好，还是“apparition（幻影，奇特景象）”好呢？很显然后者正确！所以答案是E。提醒注意的是：SYNTHESIS和AMALGAM在这里是看不出区别的，虽然SNYTHESIS有化学反应导致的合成的意思层面，但是也有物理合成的意思层面。

/ ]2 d) a  L; Q7 S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：began...continued构成了很明显的前后不变比较关系。空格一表达“context of jargon and verbal delicacy”的含义。所以A和C候选。as...as是同级比较，所以填哪个的性质都是可以的，空格二继续表达“委婉语”的特点即可。A的literal正好说反了，所以答案C正确。

(E) tussle...substitute
答案是A,我想第二空应该是重复credit吧,但是为什么不能选C呢?

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。

答案是E, 我想知道为什么不能选C?

翻译：by引导的是手段，后面说的学到更多非遗传得到的东西是目的（结果），根据目的手段一致，空格二要表达的是能“acquire further information”的含义。在已经确认父母的情况下，你说的C不能得到“further”的东西，所以只有D和E候选。空格一D明显不合适，所以E正确了。
