Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

Accuse means to find fault with; blame. So, we need a negative word in the 1st blank. So, 1, 2 and 3 are eliminated. Cerebral means characterized by the use of the intellect. It doesn't fit the 2nd blank here. Vapid means without liveliness or spirit; dull or tedious; boring. So, it fits the 2nd blank.
