In a significant 22 of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a 23 bill that will propose making payments to witnesses 24 and will strictly control the amount of 25 that can be given to a case 26 a trial begins. In a letter to Gerald Kaufman, chairman of the House of Commons media select committee, Lord Irvine said he 27 with a committee report this year which said that self regulation did not 28 sufficient control.

选项
A、since
B、if
C、before
D、as
答案
C
解析
before此题属于语法题。本题中需填入一个时间状语连词。从本文的主题和本句的含义判断,Irvine勋爵主张在案件审判之前不应该对其进行过多的报道,故选项[C]before是正确答案。选项[A]since和选项[D]as都可引导时间状语从句,但从语意上与原文不符。选项[B]if引导条件状语从句,也不适用于本题。全句可译为:为了加强法律对媒体的监管,大法官Irvine勋爵将提议起草一个法案:付给证人报酬这种行为是非法的,在审判之前必须严格控制有多少案情信息可以披露于众。
