Looking at Blank (i), it is hard to select a correct answer, since all three answer choices ft the immediate context well. Looking to the second part of the sentence, however, we can see such expressions as “hide” and “smoke screens,” both of which suggest that the correct answer for Blank (i) is “deceptive.” Making that assumption, we can go on to see that the answer for Blank (ii) is “dissimilar,” since what is deceptive about political advertisements is that they hide important differences. Reading the sentence again with “deceptive” and “dissimilar” in place confrms those choices.
Thus the correct answer is deceptive (Choice C) and dissimilar (Choice E).
