A or D?

0 "A number of writers who once greatly 01i00___ the literary critic have recently recanted, substituting ___02i00 for their former criticism. 02br
00A. lauded … censure 02br
00B. influenced … analysis 02br
00C. simulated … ambivalence 02br
00D. disparaged … approbation 02br
00E. honored … adulation" 02br
02br
00I chose D. But someone said A would be better. I don't think so. Because I don't think there would be many writers who would like the criticism on their writings. 02br
02br
00What do you think? Thanks! 0-
