The answers are B, D and I.
Blank (i):
The sentence describes the new art museum's building, suggesting that it bodes well for the institution. To convey a positive outlook for the museum, the word here should describe the building in a positive light. The suitable word is "outstanding," as it indicates a remarkable or exceptional quality, aligning with the positive connotation intended for the building.
Blank (ii):
The sentence continues to discuss the board of directors' stance or attitude reflected in the construction of the new museum building. The selection here should describe the attitude or mindset demonstrated by the board of directors in their choice of architecture. The appropriate phrase is "a discernment about," which suggests a careful perception or understanding regarding contemporary architecture, indicating a thoughtful approach by the board.
Blank (iii):
The sentence implies a correlation between the board's approach to contemporary architecture and their potential understanding of contemporary art. The choice here should indicate a potential outcome based on the board's actions in selecting the building's architecture. The correct word is "promise," signifying a potential or likelihood that the board's discernment about contemporary architecture might also translate into an equal level of astuteness or understanding about contemporary art.
