问题 The science of astronomy was begun by amateurs and today remains dependent on their contributions, which are incisive by virtue of being ______ by the a priori assumptions that often vitiate the work of professional research scientists.

选项 A、characterized
B、unencumbered
C、supported
D、contradicted
E、inspired

答案 B

解析 方程等号:by virtue of=because of,因为,同义重复。强词和对应:天文学是由业余爱好者开启的,而且今天它依旧依赖这些人的贡献,这些贡献是深刻的因为它们被想当然的假设所空格,这些假设削弱了专业科学家的成果。本题的方程等号是by virtue of因为,前后同方向,前面说“业余爱好者的贡献是深刻的”而后面说“想当然的假设会削弱专业科学家的成果”,所以空格应填入一个负向词。characterized以…为特征,unencumbered不受束缚,supported被支持,contradicted被反对,inspired被激励。答案选B。
