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the U. S. Sentencing Guidelines when they【C4】______ penalties, and in the case of animal fighting, those guidelines are outdated and extremely【C5】______ .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
【C4】
选项
答案
D
解析
动词辨析题。此空格位于when引导的状语从句中,空格前为从句的主语they,空格后是名词penalties,因此空格处应填入一个动词作从句的谓语,且应与后面的名词搭配。主句中有一个专有名词《美国量刑准则》,由此推断法官们是依照这个进行判决的,因此选D)determine。备选动词中creates为第三人称单数,与主语they在语法上不匹配,hesitate和strengthen在意思上与penalty不匹配,故均排除。
