Those who seek the advice of scientists in this matter should recognize that, because the knowledge available is ____________. The reliability of the advice cannot be ____________.

  1. technical; documented
  2. coherent; explained
  3. explicit; understood
  4. inadequate; guaranteed
  5. extraneous; denied

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The words “documented”, “explained” and “understood” are not suitable adjectives for the noun “reliability”, and can straight-away be discarded for that reason.
Since it is logical to say that, if the available knowledge is inadequate, the reliability of the advice based on such limited knowledge cannot be guaranteed, “inadequate; guaranteed” is a suitable choice.
The pair “extraneous; denied” does not result in a logical sentence, and is wrong.



The ____________of modernist architecture ____________the natural human desire to celebrate the decorate, to take delight in ornament.

  1. elaborateness; neglects
  2. austerity; recognize
  3. embellishment; undermines
  4. severity; opposes
  5. uniformity; reflects

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The information that the second part of the sentence imparts is that there exists a natural human desire to celebrate and decorate, and to take delight in ornament. If modern architecture is “elaborate”, it would be fulfilling, and not neglecting, this desire. So, “elaborateness; neglects” is wrong.
If modern architecture is “austere”, it would be neglecting this natural desire, and not recognizing it. So, “austerity; recognize” is wrong.
If modern architecture is “embellishes”, it would again be fulfilling by this natural desire, and not be undermining it. So, “embellishment; undermines” is also wrong.
If modern architecture is “severe” (meaning austere), it would be opposing this natural desire. So, “severity; opposes” leads to a logical sentence, and is the correct answer.
Since there can be no uniformity about decoration or ornamentation, “uniformity; reflects” does not result in a logical sentence.
