Bruno admits that Philip is occasionally 1 "obnoxious", but writes that his integrity is indisputable 2.
1 occasionally: This is correct. Bruno writes that Philip can be obnoxious "from time to time". The expression "from time to time" means "occasionally" or "once in a while".
1 always: The expression "from time to time" does not mean "always". If Bruno had wanted to express that Philip is "always" obnoxious, he might have written "all the time".
1 never: The expression "from time to time" does not mean "never"
1 frequently: The expression "from time to time" does not mean "frequently". If Bruno had wanted to express that Philip is "frequently" obnoxious, he might have written "often" or "many times".
2 indisputable: This is the best choice here. Bruno writes that Philip's "integrity has never been questioned". This means that Philip's integrity is "indisputable" or "unquestioned".
2 under consideration: If someone's integrity "has never been questioned" it means his integrity has never been doubted, not that it is "under consideration".
2 questionable: This is incorrect. Something that is "questionable" is "in doubt". Bruno is trying to express just the opposite.
2 a subject of inquiry: This is incorrect. "A subject of inquiry" is something under investigation or something which is trying to be established. This is not what Bruno writes about Philip's integrity.
