Question and options
Their achievement in the field of literature is described as __________; sometimes, it is even called __________
- magnificent, irresponsible
- insignificant, influential
- significant, paltry
- unimportant, trivial

Correct answer: D - unimportant, trivial
The second blank intensifies the first ('sometimes it is even called...'), so both words must point the same way: 'unimportant' and even 'trivial'. The other pairs are contradictory.
