Explanation:
1. Blank (i): The sentence mentions "different and (i) $\qquad$ versions," implying that the versions not only vary but may also contradict each other.
- (A) conflicting (contradictory) fits best, as it emphasizes disagreement.
- (B) dissimilar could work but is weaker than "conflicting."
- (C) complementary (supporting each other) does not fit, as the context suggests disagreement.
2. Blank (ii): The phrase "it is a dastardly act that must be condemned" requires an adverb that means "without doubt."
- (E) unequivocally (clearly, without ambiguity) is the best choice.
- (D) equivocally (ambiguously) contradicts the meaning.
- (F) furtively (secretively) does not fit the context.
Thus, the correct pairing is (A) conflicting and (E) unequivocally.
Final Answer:
$\(\mathbf{A}\)$ (conflicting) and $\(\mathbf{E}\)$ (unequivocally).

why not dissimilar conflicting could mean maybe people thought the incident was heinous and conflicting thought by people was that it wasn't heinous.
