Complete the following sentence with a (compound) word derived from the one(s) given in bracket. Write your word on the ANSWER SHEET.
Although art criticism and art psychology are two （ ） disciplines, they are related to aesthetics（美学）.(dependent)
【正确答案】：INDEPENDENT
【题目解析】：
本题考查常见形容词的反义词。
由two和disciplines（名词）可知，空缺处也应填形容词，dependent意为“依赖的”，分析句意，“虽然...但他们都与美学相关”，前后出现转折，故加上反义前缀-in变为dependent的反义词independent“独立的”。
句意：虽然艺术批评和艺术心理学是两门独立的学科，但它们都与美学相关。
