　　A. fickle

　　B. stalwart
　　
C. solicitous
　　D. pretentious
　　E. whimsical
　　答案：B
　　解析：and 前后方向一致。And后面Jane Goodall 拒絕編輯以一種更不帶感情的語(yǔ)言去編輯她的描述，因此前面半句也要體現(xiàn)她反對(duì)不帶感情，即她支持要帶有感情，因此選B—堅(jiān)定她決心將那些(懷著共如此共情情緒去觀察的)動(dòng)物人格化的想法。
　　2. Though acquaintances are first overwhelmed by his ______, they soon appreciate that, contrary to appearances, he is not without self-interest.
　　A. egotism

　　B. magnanimity
　　C. ambition

　　D. profligacy

　　E. brilliance
　　答案：B
　　解析：Though 讓步，因此逗號(hào)前后轉(zhuǎn)折，后半句說(shuō)他并不是無(wú)私的，前面半句應(yīng)該體現(xiàn)無(wú)私，選B慷慨大方。
