T/C문제 1개, SE문제 한개 같이 봐주실수있을까요?...ㅠㅠㅠGRE초보에게 도움의 손길 부탁드립니다.
(1)The young researcher's conclusions flew in the face of established scientific knowledge; she therefore stated her findings (i)_______ in her paper. Despite her confidence in her theories, she wanted to avoid accusation of (ii)____________ that might come from more seasoned academics, and determined that she could forgo recognition for the time being. Once her ideas were corroborated by additional experimentation, she would receive her due (iii)__________.
(i) eruditely, facetiously, diffidently
(ii) brazenness, ineptitude, deference
(iii) compensation, kudos, diligence
답이 diffidently, brazenness, kudos라는데...
(ii) (iii)이 헷갈리네요...ㅠㅠ (ii)에 ineptitude는 왜 안되는 건가요? 저는 ineptitude가 brazenness보다 더 어울린다고 생각이 드는데...어디서 어떻게 잘 못 생각을 하고 있는 걸까요?
(iii)의 경우 kudos가 되는 것은 알겠는데, compensation이 어떠한 이유로 답이 안되는지가 궁금합니다. 이전에 forgo 했던 recognition을 compensate하는 것도 말이 되지 않나요?
(2) The laboratory maze has grown ever less _________ since it was first invented; instead of hoping to lose a rodent in a labyrinth, today's scientists design mazes to elicit a few simple, easily measured behaviors.
A. intricate
B. extensive
C. effective
D. convoluted
E. useful
F. prevalent
답이 a,d라는데, 이 문제는 사실 해석이 잘 안되네요...뒤에 hoping to lose a rodent in a labyrinth가 어떤 의미를 지니고 있는 것인지 몰라서 그런지, 답이 어떻게 돼야하는지 감조차 안잡혀서 이렇게 질문 올립니다.
감사합니다ㅠㅠㅠ
