Having turned out forty solo recordings, this hardworking harpsichordist can almost be classed as

  • A. a contradiction
  • B. a sluggard

  • E. an industry
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: E 🗳️
The harpsichordist (a musician who plays the instrument harpsichord) referred to in the sentence is described as hardworking, and is stated to have turned out as many as forty solo recordings. He can therefore not be classed as a contradiction, or a sluggard (meaning a lazy person) or an apprentice. Classifying him as an event is not as appropriate as classifying him as an industry by himself. So, E is the answer.
