1、 The senator's reputation, though _________ by false allegations of misconduct, emerged from the ordeal _________
(A) shaken...unscathed
(B) destroyed...intact
(C) damaged...impaired
(D) impugned...unclear
(E) tarnished...sulliedwww.ExamW.CoM
分析：空格 1 填入一个过去分词，表示"这个参议员的声誉(The senator's reputation)"被对他的"不端行为的无理指责(false allegations of misconduct)"做的动作，根据手段和行为一致，空格 1 应该填入一个负动作;空格 2 填入一个形容词性的词，修饰声誉，though 表达让步转折， 所以空格 2 应该填入一个正动作，并且不能和空格 1 矛盾。A 动摇""未被损坏的，无恙的;B 完全破坏，摧毁""完好无缺的;C 损坏，破坏""被削弱;D 被攻击，发难""不清楚的;E 败坏、玷污""被玷污。A 和 B 都可能被选到，但是 B 会导致前后矛盾，所以答案只能是 A。
翻译：尽管这个参议员的声誉被对他不端行为的无理指责所动摇，但这次严峻的考验并没有破坏他的声誉。
