Question
In each of the following questions, a sentence with two
blanks is given. Choose the pair of words that best fits the context of the sentence. The philosopher rejected excessively ______ interpretations of morality, arguing instead that ethical judgment frequently emerges from historically ______ social experiences rather than universal abstractions.Solution
The sentence contrasts: Rigid morality, with Historically shaped ethical experiences. “Dogmatic interpretations” refers to rigid and unquestioned beliefs. “Contingent social experiences” means experiences dependent upon historical and social circumstances. This pair best preserves the philosophical complexity of the sentence. Other options either weaken the contrast or distort meaning. Hence, option (b).
