The second blank is an easy place to start, and refers to the speaker. The clue for the second blank is add meaning and richness. The transition phrase while some… others indicates that the word for the second blank will be an opposite of the clue, so use “ignorance” as a word for the second blank. Eliminate (D) and (E) because they do not match “ignorance,” and the correct answer for the second blank is (F), benighted. Now, look at the first blank, which refers to some. The clue for the first blank is such as Lewis Carroll’s lasting creation “chortle,” so use “a new word” as a word for the first blank. Choices (A) and (C) can be eliminated, because they do not match “a new word.” The correct answer for the first blank is (B), neologisms. The correct answer is (B) and (F).
