Researchers have wrecked the old thought that Mozart was a(n) (I) _______ academic, interpreting the music that played in his cerebrum. Or maybe, he appears to have refined his plans to a practically uncommon degree.

    Essentially, there was a prevailing opinion that Mozart was a prodigy, who simply "interpret[ed] the music that played in his cerebrum" BUT it turns out that "maybe he refined his plans to a practically uncommon degree." We're looking for a positively charged word here that indicates the "old thought" of his precociousness. <Diligent> is the opposite of what we need. <Cautious> doesn't fit the context because there is no proof. <Casual> fits best.

Assessment of Mozart's enduring portrayals and drafts (ii) _______ the attestation that the writer once in a while started a piece, put it in a safe spot, and continued it months or years after the fact; revamped alarming segments a few times in succession; (iii) _______ when a first endeavor neglected to fulfill and stood by to complete an aria until a vocalist had evaluated the opening.

    Assessment of this second piece further elaborates the "old thought" that researchers wrecked. This sentence tells us that evidence ("enduring portrayals and drafts") illuminates that he actually worked hard to refine his work ("continued it months or years after the fact"). The portion after the semicolon ("revamped alarming segments....opening") also add to emphasise his revision history. Therefore, for (ii), we're looking for a word that proves this fact - probably something neutral. <Substantiates> fits best here but in checking the rest just in case, <undermines> is a negative word and this would defy that proof. <Debates> is also the wrong tone - the author of the sentence isn't debating the attestation.

    For (iii), a little bit more difficult to pull out a fill-in, but I assumed we were looking for a word that reflected his hard work/focus when a "first endeavour neglected to fulfill" his expectations. There's no proof that he <reacted furiously>! He's just hyper-focused! Did he <modify his style>? Maybe, but we don't know this for sure. That's not a proper inference here. <Started from scratch> fits best here since it reflects "revamp[ing] alarming segments" and the general vibe of the baby passage of Mozart being a fanatic for refining his work to a "practically uncommon degree."
