With the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most【C1】______ issue across the United States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective deterrent(威慑)to murder,【C2】______ others maintain there is no convincing evidence that the death penalty reduces the number of murders.
The principal argument【C3】______ by those opposed to the death penalty, basically, is that it is cruel and inhuman punishment, that it is the mark of a【C4】______ society, and finally that it is of questionable effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway.
In our opinion, the death penalty is a【C5】______ evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those extreme individuals in every society who were【C6】______ of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others.
For example, it is one thing to【C7】______ the life of another in a fit of blind rage, but quite another to coldly plot and【C8】______ the murder of one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder,【C9】______ all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While it could be argued with some conviction, that the【C10】______ in the first instance should be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the latter type of murderer.
【C9】
选项
A、unlike
B、as
C、like
D、alike
答案
C
解析
从语法角度考虑,本题要求填人一个介词。D项alike(相同的,相像的)是形容词,用在这里显然不合适。B项as作介词时的意思是“作为”,如:He is very success—ful as a writer.“作为作家他很成功。”因此as用在这里与句意不合。A项unlike(不像)和C项like(像)都是介词,意思正好相反,因此需要结合上下文来考虑。由上文提到的两种凶杀案可知,杀人有度的区别(a matter of relative degree)。若填A项un一like,意味着所有其他的犯罪没有度的区别,这与常识不符,因而A不正确,而应填人C。
