The blank is preceded by the word ''aversion'' which means reluctance and it is described as a drawback of a democratic majority. Therefore the blank must be positive word.
The correct responses are A and E. Cosset means to pamper. Accommodate looks like a good option too , but the lack of synonyms in the options makes it invalid.
