问题 Prior to the work of Heckel, illustrations of fish were often beautiful but rarely (i)______; this fact, combined with the (ii)______ nature of most nineteenth-century taxonomic descriptions, often kept scientists from recognizing differences between species.
选项 A、impressive…inaccurate
B、realistic…detailed
C、traditional…progressive
D、precise…inexact
E、distinctive…sophisticated
答案 D
解析 空格(i)
- 方程等号：but但是，前后取反；rarely相当于not，再次取反，两次取反，取同。
- 强词和对应：空格(i)和beautiful根据but和rarely两次取反取同，空格填一个正向词，impressive令人印象深刻的，realistic现实的，traditional传统的，precise精确的，distinctive独特的，排除C。A、B、D和E选项备选。
空格(ii)：
- 方程等号：combined with相当于and，前后取同。
- 强词和对应：this fact指代的是rarely+空格(i)，是一个负向词，所以空格(ii)也是一个负向词。inaccurate不精确的(对)，detailed详细的(错)，progressive先进的(错)，inexact不精确的(对)，sophisticated高级的(错)。
-比较A和D两个选项，因为要体现“没有空格(i)会使得科学家不能识别在物种之间的差异”，相比于A选项，D选项是更直接的答案。因为即使是很平常(rarely impressive)的插画书，只要标清物种的差异，还是会让科学家识别出其差别。但是如果不精准的话，那必然无法识别其中差异。
