Explanation
Because of the word Although, the correct pair must contrast “accommodating.”
Both tenaciously and doggedly convey the idea that Orwell refused to back down. Note that the pair obsequiously and sycophantically are the exact opposite of what you are looking for.
Hence options tenaciously, doggedly are best fit!
