  逐日一練

  To most, the word ‘architecture’ connotes a grandeur typically associated with the Old World--flying buttresses, Doric columns, baroque flourishes, byzantine arabesques--and thus many of the more_____ structures, especially those not obviously inspired by neo classicalism, are often thought to be cobbled together haphazardly instead of following some prescribed architectural idiom.

  A. modest

  B. secular

  C. unassuming

  D. dilapidated

  E. ramshackle

  F. sedate

  A C

  謎底剖析

  The trap here is to contrast grandeur with the blank. If you do so, you will end up with (D) and (E). The contrast, however, is not between grandeur and dilapidation. Rather, between what constitutes architecture and what does not. Therefore, (A) and (C) fit this context much better. The contrast is between everyday buildings and the grand structures of the Old World.
