选项
A、better than
B、other than
C、rather than
D、sooner than
答案
C
解析
本题的考点是词汇辨析。空格连接前后两部分:left to judges和to Parliament,二者描述的对象都是interpretation of private controls,因此二者只能选一个,空格处填入的词要表达出这种选择的关系。选项A和B表示的程度上的比较,而非选择。选项D“other than”可表示“不同于”,但用于文中表示的意思是“把隐私控制权留给法官不同于留给国会”,这个客观事实是不至于引起新闻界的抗议的。选项C是最恰当的答案,表示“把隐私控制权留给法官而不是留给国会”。
