When someone commits a criminal act, we always hope the punishment will match the offense. But when it comes to one of the cruelest crimes—animal fighting—things【C1】______ work out that way. Dog-fighting victims are【C2】______ and killed for profit and "sport," yet their criminal abusers often receive a【C3】______ sentence for causing a lifetime of pain. Roughly half of all federally-convicted animal fighters only get probation(缓刑).
Some progress has been made in the prosecution(起诉)of animal fighters. But federal judges often rely heavily on the U. S. Sentencing Guidelines when they【C4】______ penalties, and in the case of animal fighting, those guidelines are outdated and extremely【C5】______ .
The U. S. Sentencing Commission, which【C6】______ these sentencing guidelines, is revisiting them, proposing to raise the minimum sentence from 6-12 to 21 -27 months. This is a step in the right【C7】______ , but we’d like to see the U. S. Sentencing Commission make further changes to the guidelines.
Along with this effort, we’re working with animal advocates and state and federal lawmakers to【C8】______ anti-cruelty laws across the country, as well as supporting laws and policies that assist overburdened animal【C9】______ that care for animal fighting victims. This help is【C10】______ important because the high cost of caring for animal victims is a major factor that prevents people from getting involved in cruelty cases in the first place.
A)convenient I)method
B)creates J)minimal
C)critically K)rarely
D)determine L)shelters
E)direction M)strengthen
F)hesitate N)sufferings
G)inadequate O)tortured
H)inspired
【C1】
选项
答案
K
解析
副词辨析题。空格前面是名词,后面为动词短语work out,因此空格处需要填入副词,以修饰其后的动词。前一句中提到人们希望惩罚与罪行相当。接下来的But提示我们在动物角斗这件事上并非如此,因此,空格处需要填入一个表示否定的副词,修饰work out。因此确定K)rarely“很少地,难得”为本题答案。备选词语中只有两个副词,而critically意思为“特别地,关键地”,与此处要表达的“极少地”语境不符,故排除。
