Although the committee recognized the proposal's theoretical promise, they voted against its implementation due to its ______ budget projections and ______ schedule.

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. unrealistic ... unfeasible

  1. Step 1: Analyze context clues: 'Although' establishes contrast between 'theoretical promise' and practical shortcomings.
  2. Step 2: The committee voted against implementation, so both blanks must express negative, impractical attributes: 'unrealistic' and 'unfeasible'.
Answer
unrealistic ... unfeasible.
Why not the others: 'modest ... conventional' describes acceptable attributes that would not warrant voting against the proposal; 'detailed ... flexible' and 'promising ... organized' are positive characteristics.
