I took the approach of solving it as a math strategy. The because is a support which means the first and second half of the sentence should be in similar tone. In second part I understood that she chose to criticise , hence blank D . Similarly I choose negative word for first blank - pejorative . Can someone please confirm if my approach is right or wrong?

[quoteThe review favors belittling (putting down; disparaging) criticism, so it could be described as pejorative (disparaging). Such a review would necessarily have dispensed with (gotten rid of) cordiality (cheerfulness; warmth).[/quote]
Ask if you do need further explanations
