选项
A、binding
B、convincing
C、restraining
D、sustaining
答案
A
解析
binding此题属于语意搭配题。选项[A]binding表示“有约束力的”,例如:a binding contract/agreement。上文提到了the Human Rights Bill(人权法案),可与binding搭配,故[A]binding是正确答案。选项[B]convincing表示“有说服力的”,例如:His explanation isconvincing.选项[C]restraining表示“制止,抑制”;选项[D]sustaining表示“支撑,继续”,这两个选项一般都不用于这样的结构。
