问题 No longer (i)____ by the belief that the world around us was expressly designed for humanity, many people try to find intellectual (ii)____ for that lost certainty in astrology and in mysticism.

选项 A、satisfied…reasons
B、sustained…substitutes
C、reassured…justifications
D、hampered…equivalents
E、restricted…parallels

答案 B

解析 空格(i):
- 方程等号:that指示代词,指代内容与前文同义重复。
- 强词和对应:certainty的释义是something that is certain。that lost certainty和the belief构成同义重复。lost表示失去,为负向,和No longer构成同义重复,因此空格(i)填入不改变句意和逻辑方向的词,体现确信(信仰)失去,人们不相信。satisfy满足,sustain支持(to give support or relief to),reassure再次确认,hamper阻碍,restrict限制。A、B和C三项合适。
空格(ii):
- 方程等号:逗号,同义重复。
- 强词和对应:前文说人们不再相信一种信仰,人们试图寻找这种“不相信的信仰”的空格(ii),空格(ii)体现人们寻找“其他相信的信仰”。reason推理(错),substitute替代品(对),justification正当的理由(错),equivalent相等的东西(对),parallel类似物(对)。信仰已经丢失,人们无须为其找“理由”,因此排除选项A和C。综合空格(i),答案选B。
