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.

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.

选项
A、better than
B、other than
C、rather than
D、sooner than
答案
C
解析
考查语篇理解。空格前后连接的是两个短语to judges与to Parliament,显然两者是对立的,只能选其一,结合全文来看,应该选to judges,因此答案为C.rather than“是…而不是…”,意为“把隐私控制的解释权留给法官而不留给国会”。better than“比…好”;sooner than“比…快”;other than“除了,不同于”,均不符合题意。
