Question: 289

19. Even though the architect's designs were _______ to the surrounding buildings, she had to _______ them because of the impending deadline.

  • A. disproportionate … submit
  • B. comparable … deliver
  • C. excessive … affirm
  • D. consistent … present

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

A is correct. Comparable (choice B) and consistent (choice D) do not fit the "even though" construction of this sentence. Excessive fits the first blank, though affirm (meaning "to declare positively" or "maintain to be true") makes no sense in the second blank. Disproportionatesubmit (choice A) is the correct answer.
