Sometimes the combination of several(i)______improvements creates an overall improvement much greater than would be predicted by merely adding the individual contributions together. For instance, Oliver Cromwell’s New Model Army revealed the(ii)______ relationship that could be achieved through organized discipline, regular pay, meritocracy, and, of course,(iii)______devotion to a Puritan cause.
选项
答案
B,D,I
解析
The best answers are B, incremental; D, salutary; and I, fervid. The improvements themselves are all minor and build upon one another; in other words, they are incremental. However, together they create synergy, a healthful, or salutary, effect. Part of this effect was grounded on the troops’ fanatical, fervid, devotion to their religious cause. Lackluster means "unimpressive," and picayune means "tiny"; both are a bit harsh for the kind of improvement referenced here. Meretricious means "vulgar or gaudy," and minatory means "threatening"; neither one describes the generally positive relationship. While the Puritans were not saturnine, or "gloomy," they may have seemed sanctimonious, or "morally fussy"; however, the real function of the sentence is to stress their fanatical, fervid devotion to their cause.
