Schlesinger has recently assumed a conciliatory attitude that is not (i)______ by his colleagues, who continue to (ii)______ compromise.
【正确答案】
E
【答案解析】空格(i)+空格(ii)：
- 方程等号：by说明前后句意同义重复。who引导的定语从句修饰colleagues，前后修饰同义重复。
- 强词和对应：根据题意，not+空格(i)体现同行对Schlesinger和解态度的看法，conciliatory和compromise取同。因此空格(i)和空格(ii)根据not取反，联动。代入选项，eschew回避…dread害怕，取同，排除；share分享…defend支持，取同，排除；question质疑…reject拒绝，取同，排除；understand理解…advocate支持，取同，排除；commend称赞…disparage贬低，取反，正确。答案选E。
