_____________ the theatrical devices normally used to create drama on
the stage.
Blank (i) Blank (ii)
A. pedestrian D. jettison
B. startling E. experiment with
C. celebrated F. distil

Here A E also makes sense the writer approach is pedestrian because he expermints with normally used techniques . so he is using commonplace conventional methods hence can be banal or pedestrain right???

2

we can use block of 4 for the second blank.

  1. Normally----use theatrical devices.
    2.not normally----theatrical devices are abandoned.

abandon=jettison, so option D for 2nd blank

if he doesn’t follows the normal thing, then he is doing some different and surprising thing. So for blank 1 option B is correct.
