In a significant【C2】______of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a【C3】______bill that will propose making payments to witnesses【C4】______and will strictly control the amount of 【C5】______that can be given to a case【C6】______a trial begins.
In a letter to Gerald Kaufman, chairman of the House of Commons Media Select Committee, Lord Irvine said he【C7】______with a committee report this year which said that self regulation did not 【C8】______sufficient control.
【C9】______of the letter came two days after Lord Irvine caused a【C10】______of media protest when he said the 【C11】______of privacy controls contained in European legislation would be left to judges【C12】______to Parliament.
The Lord Chancellor said introduction of the Human Rights Bill, which【C13】______the European Convention on Human Rights legally【C14】______in Britain, laid down that everybody was【C15】______to privacy and that public figures could go to court to protect themselves and their families. "Press freedoms will be in safe hands【C16】______our British judges," he said.
Witness payments became an【C17】______fter West was sentenced to 10 life sentences in 1995. Up to 19 witnesses were【C18】______to have received payments for telling their stories to newspapers. Concerns were raised【C19】______witnesses might be encouraged to exaggerate their stories in court to【C20】______guilty verdicts.
【C17】
选项
A、impact
B、incident
C、inference
D、issue
答案
D
解析
考查名词辨析。此处意为“自West被判十次无期徒刑后,付款给证人的做法成为了______”。结合前面提到的the trial of Rosemary West,可知这个事件的影响很大,政府和法官都意识到要严格控制报界付款给证人的行为。由此可以推断出付款给证人的做法应该成为颇有争议的问题(issue),故选D。impact“影响”,一般用于have/make a great impact on sth.incident“突发事件”,inference“推论”,均与题意不符。
