One of the really startling things about today’s decision on the Affordable Care Act is that the whole broccoli issue. One might have thought it【B1】______the dignity of the Court, for the broccoli was not only raised in the various rulings and differences but tossed around, argued back and forth, and made【B2】______central to the whole thing. In his ruling, Chief Justice Roberts jumps right into what Justice Ginsburg calls " the broccoli horrible," meaning the mention of broccoli as the【B3】______consequence of unrestrained big government.【B4】______the idea that the Commerce Clause allows Congress to regulate a consumer’s【B5】______, he repeats what is by now the familiar mocking【B6】______of the right: What would stop a government that can make you buy health insurance from also making you buy healthy vegetables? That【B7】______the health-care market, too.【B8】______, we wouldn’t want to live in a country where they can make you eat broccoli!
Consider the chain of inferences the Court would have to accept to【B9】______that a vegetable-purchase decree was likely to have a(an) 【B10】______effect on the health-care costs borne by Americans. The Court would have to believe that【B11】______forced to buy vegetables would then eat them, would【B12】______the vegetables in a healthy way, and would not allow other factors to【B13】______the improved diet.
【B14】______, if you eat broccoli raw, steamed, or even deep-fried, it’s going to seem【B15】______, the kind of thing the government would have to force【B16】______your plate. But broccoli is a bad thing only when it is badly done. The truth is that broccoli should always be【B17】______roasted or pureed, in the French style, and if you tasted it, you would not just【B18】______but demand government-mandated broccoli. In fact, if you could force all the right-wing Justices to taste these dishes, they would never mention " the broccoli horrible" again. They’d【B19】______just move on to Brussels sprouts, though, legal argument being【B20】______it is.
【B1】
选项
A、above
B、beneath
C、below
D、beyond
答案
B
解析
本题考查介词的用法。该句主要讲“在法院大谈西兰花事宜有失身份”,所以选[B]beneath“在……下方”,如:He considered the job beneath his dignity.“他认为该工作有失身份。”其他选项均不符合文意和语法,故排除。
