　　B. an illustrious              E. feigned

　　C. a contentious            F. manufactured

　　解析：CD

　　逻辑关系提示词：“，”，取同

　　填空对应：blank i -outlawed+blank ii+ ridiculed

　　解释：outlawed...then...and...三句都在对blank i进行解释，blank ii结合outlawed句和ridiculed 句与blank i联动。二空根据语义，不是制造或捏造，因此选D。有同学在一空可能会选obscure，obscure指的是令人费解的，晦涩的难懂的。这段历史实际是非常清晰的，每段时间发生了什么都在后面呈现了出来，只是不同阶段人们对kilt的看法不同，所以是contentious，引起争议的。

　　词汇：obscure 难懂的

　　Illustrious 杰出的

　　Contentious 引起争议的

　　Reclassify 重新归类

　　Feign 捏造

　　Manufacture 制造

　　解释：一空有些同学会认为decadent是pomposity或baroque的反义词。实际上，decadent是表示的一种衰落的，颓废的状态，它的反义词应该是繁荣的，欣欣向荣的。而pomposity/baroque是一种浮夸的风格，它们的反义词应该是简约的。
