考试类型: Critical Reading > Sentence Completions
Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.
Although they are perceived as ------- by some, the various vocalizations of the common loon may sound harsh and ------- to others.
A. irritable . . migratory
B. mellifluous . . discordant
C. soothing . . palatable
D. pervasive . . strident
E. loathsome . . intolerable
正确答案:B
解析:
The word "Although" indicates that there is a contrast in the sentence. It makes sense to say that even though some people think loon vocalizations are "mellifluous," or have a smooth and rich sound, other people think the sounds are "harsh and discordant," or harsh and jarring.
