As former colonists of Great Britain, the Founding Fathers of the United States adopted much of the legal system of Great Britain. We have a "common law", or law made by courts 【B1】______ a monarch or other central governmental 【B2】______ like a legislature. The jury, a【B3】______of ordinary citizens chosen to decide a case, is an 【B4】______ part of our common-law system.
Use of juries to decide cases is a 【B5】______ feature of the American legal system. Few other countries in the world use juries as we do in the United States. 【B6】______the centuries, many people have believed that juries in most cases reach a fairer and more just result 【B7】______ would be obtained using a judge 【B8】______, as many countries do. 【B9】______ a jury decides cases after "【B10】______", or discussions among a group of people, the jury’ s decision is likely to have the【B11】______from many different people from different backgrounds, who must as a group decide what is right.
Juries are used in both civil cases, which decide【B12】______among【B13】______citizens, and criminal cases, which decide cases brought by the government【B14】______that individuals have committed crimes. Juries are selected from the U.S. citizens and【B15】______. Jurors, consisting of【B16】______numbers, are called for each case requiring a jury.
The judge【B17】______to the case【B18】______the selection of jurors to serve as the jury for that case. In some states,【B19】______jurors are questioned by the judge; in others, they are questioned by the lawyers representing the【B20】______under rules dictated by state law.
【B2】
选项
A、agency
B、organization
C、institution
D、authority
答案
D
解析
考查名词辨析。空格处填入的名词和governmental搭配,表示“像立法机关这样的中央政府______”。D.authority可表示“有权力做决定或在某个地区有特别责任范围的人们或组织”,即“当局,当权者”。文中legislature指“有权制定或修改法律的一群人”,即“立法机关”。因此D项为最佳答案。agency一般指“服务机构,尤其是代理或经销机构”;也可以指(提供特别服务)的政府专门机构,如the Central Intelligence Agency(美国中央情报局);organization泛指各种组织、团体和机构;institution多指“大规模的用于特殊目的的组织”,如educational institution(教育机构);或者指各种慈善机构和社会福利机构,均不符合题意。
