1.题目的主干是ideas compels form, compel就是一个关键字，“内容”驱使、限制“结构”，所以选C，两者统一完整的。A是有症状的，符合题意。. ^& L2 ]) g/ U7 c
2.The combination of ____ and ____ in Edmund's speech can be starting, especially when he slyly slips in some juicy vulgarity amid the mellifluous circumlocutions of a gentleman of the old school.

答案D,我选C
" h' I$ d, m5 d. c9 f& F2.前后对应，注意后面vulgarity amid..circumlocutions of a gentleman.老式学校的绅士应该是彬彬有礼的，所以用了mellifluous circumlocutions(流畅而婉转的叙述)来形容gentleman的演讲技巧，这个对应的是elegance优雅的一面，另一个空对应的是vulgarity粗俗的，所以两者的混合统一是startling。

这里的句型是ALTHOUGH...AS,后面应该是BUT引出的和前面相反的意思,既"尽管"科学家把它"当成"什么,但其实它并不是什么的意思,这说明前一句的事实应该是不正确或和后面相反的,那也就是说应该是一个消极的词语来说明盲肠应该是个没有用(VESTIGAL)的器官,从而后面再说它其实很有用(SIGNIFICANT).如果选D,前一个空用IGNORE说的过去,但后面如果用PIVOTAL,前一部分的意思成了"尽管科学家长期把盲肠忽略成一个'关键'器官,也就是说它不应该是重要的器官了,这和后面说的它是重要的器官就违背了,所以应该选择B.7 J* V6 R/ R! i3 ]- N8 B; R) l

选E,句子的意思就是:关于大米产量保持稳定的论断决不是"万无一失"的,因为常年充盈在亚洲的骚动使得其(大米产量)反复无常.选A,后面的词语可以,但前面如果用UNCERTAIN的话,前一句的意思就成了:关于大米产量保持稳定的论断决不是"不确定"的,也就是说大米一定保持产量了,这和后面说的那些消极因素矛盾了.所以还是选E比较合适.
