问题 While many outside the company attributed the company’s success to its president s(i)______, insiders realized that this success owed more to the president’s inflexibility than to any(ii)______that the president might be supposed to have displayed.

选项

答案 C,F

解析 The second part of the sentence suggests that there is a contrast between a negative quality of the president("inflexibility")that was the actual primary cause of the company’s success and a positive quality named by Blank(ii)that the outsiders took to be the cause. Among the answer choices for Blank(ii), only "foresight" denotes a positive quality, so it is the correct answer. The sentence as a whole implies that the answer to Blank(i)must be similar in meaning to the answer for Blank(ii); the only answer choice that is synonymous with "foresight" is "prescience," so it is the correct answer for Blank(i).
Thus the correct answer is prescience(Choice C)and foresight(Choice F).
