33.
The correct answer is (A).
Evaluate each of these adjectives to
see which one is the most accurate description of Boswell’s
attitude. Do not inject your own attitude; this question is about
the author’s attitude. After careful reading, you will no doubt
arrive at choice (A), admiring. Consistency among questions can
help you here. Note that in question 32, the answer indicates
that Boswell is very balanced in his reporting of Johnson’s
character, so choice (B), fawning; choice (C), idolizing; and
choice (E), indulgent, would be contradictory. Choice (D) might
work, but the connotation is not quite right. Boswell did
describe Johnson accurately, but he admired his subject, too.
