Choose the word or set of words that, when inserted in the sentence, best fits the meaning of the sentence as a whole.

Laboratories have been warned that provisions for animal protection that in the past were merely ------- will now be mandatory;------- of this policy will lose their federal research grants.

(A) comprehensive . . adversaries

(B) nominal . . advocates

(C) disregarded . . proponents

(D) recommended . . violators

(E) compulsory . . resisters

答案：D

解析：

The word “merely” indicates that the past provisions were not as strict as the “mandatory” provisions and “recommended” is the only first term that conveys a lesser degree of strictness. Only “violators” could logically be penalized by losing their federal research grants.
