In the Middle Ages, the ____ of the great cathedrals did not enter into the architects’ plans; almost invariably a cathedral was positioned haphazardly in ____ surroundings.

  • A.situation - incongruous
  • B.ambience - salubrious
  • C.durability - convenient
  • D.location - apt

Answer: A

Correct answer: situation - incongruous

Positioned haphazardly is the clue for both blanks. If placement was haphazard, then what the architects ignored was placement itself - the cathedral’s situation - and the surroundings it ended up in would not suit it.

Incongruous supplies that mismatch, while salubrious, convenient and apt all describe surroundings that suit, which is the opposite of haphazard. Ambience and durability are not what haphazard positioning affects.
