Not all who【C1】______these sorts of cruelties are mentally ill, but【C2】______have been. After each, the national discussion quickly, but temporarily, turns toward the mental health services that may have【C3】______to prevent another attack.
   Mental illness usually is not as dangerous or dramatic.【C4】____ 23 million Americans live with mental disorder, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Very few of these men and women are【C5】______mass-murderers; they need help for their own well-being and for that of their【C6】______.

【C10】

选项 A、bill
B、method
C、link
D、law

答案A

解析 本题考查名词辨析。理解上下文是作答此题的关键。此处的句意为“这个______将重组联邦政府拔给心理卫生服务机构的数十亿美元”。本段句首介绍了Rep.Tim Murphy提出了一个法案。此处讲的是法案的实施细节,故A.bill“法案”是对前文的呼应,为正确答案。method“办法”不能替换bill;link“联系,关系”不符合题意,应排除;law“法律”表示颁布实施后的法案,与题意不符,故排除。
