"Although she gives badly _____ titles to her musical compositions, they _____ unusual combinations of materials including Gregorian chant, Asian scale patterns and rhythms, electronic sounds, and bird songs."

A.exotic … belie
B.eccentric … deploy
C.traditional … exclude
D.imaginative … disguise
E.conventional … incorporate

参考译文：尽管她糟糕地给她的音乐作品赋以寻常的(传统的)题目, 但是这些作品却体现出对一些材料的不寻常的整合, 比如罗马教的圣歌、亚洲的音阶风格节奏、古怪的声响和鸟鸣。"
"根据主干大法, 本题的线索主词是she、titles和they、combinations, 显然这里they只能是指代her musical compositions (看作titles的同义重复), 也就是说句子的转折围绕titles展开。转折前对于titles的评价由第一空决定, 转折后titles(they)的评价unusual combinations决定(这取决于第二空的动词是正评价还是负评价), 如果第二空是正评价词, 表明titles与unusual combinations一致, 那么转折前就应该相反, 所以第一空填unusual combinations的反义表达; 如果第二空是负评价词, 表明titles与unusual combinations相反, 所以第一空填unusual combinations的同义表达。第一空只有CE是清楚的unusual combinations的反义表达, 候选。第二空选项单词正负评价正好相反(这是ETS惯用思路, 2空题先变成2选1, 再取舍就容易多了), 根据前面逻辑分析只能选正评价的词汇
