问题     The country’s inadequate mental health system gets the most attention after instances of mass violence that the nation has seen repeatedly over the past few months. Not all who 【B1】______ these sorts of cruelties are mentally ill, but 【B2】______ have been. After each, the national discussion quickly, but temporarily, turns toward the mental health services that may have 【B3】______ to prevent another attack.
    Mental illness usually is not as dangerous or dramatic. 【B4】______ 23 million Americans live with mental disorder, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Very few of these men and women are【B5】______mass-murderers; they need help for their own well-being and for that of their【B6】______. The Affordable Care Act has significantly increased insurance coverage 【B7】______ mental health care. But that may not be enough to expand 【B8】______ to insufficient mental-health-care resources.
    Rep. Tim Murphy has a bill that would do so. The Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act is more 【B9】______ than other recent efforts to reform the system and perhaps has the brightest prospects in a divided Congress. The【B10】______would reorganize the billions the federal government pours into mental health services. It would【B11】______the way Medicaid pays for certain mental health treatments. It would fund mental health clinics that【B12】______certain medical standards. And it would【B13】______states to adopt policies that allow judges to order some severely mentally ill people to undergo treatment.
    Not everyone is satisfied. Some patients’ advocates have【B14】______Mr. Murphy’s approach as coercive and【B15】______to those who need help. The government should not be expanding the system’ s capability to hospitalize or impose treatment on those【B16】______severe episodes, they say. It should instead be investing in community care that【B17】______the need for more serious treatment.【B18】______, for a small class who will not accept treatment between hospital visits or repeat arrests, they say, states have good reason to【B19】______them to accept care, under judicial supervision. Mr. Murphy’s reform package may not prevent the next Sandy Hook.【B20】______the changes would help relieve a lot of suffering that does not make the front page.
【B19】

选项 A、invite
B、allow
C、require
D、refute

答案C

解析 此处的句意为“…政府有理由______他们在司法监督下接受治疗”。根据前文的分析,此处应为政府对病人的敦促或强制,故C.require“要求,命令”符合题意,为正确答案。invite“邀请”在语气上不符合语境,应排除。政府从未禁止病人就医,故allow“允许”不符合题意;refute“反驳,驳斥”后跟言论或人作宾语,但无refute sb.to do sth.的结构,且在含义上不符合语境,故排除。
