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the U. S. Sentencing Guidelines when they【C4】______ penalties, and in the case of animal fighting, those guidelines are outdated and extremely【C5】______ .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
【C9】
选项
答案
L
解析
名词辨析题。从句子结构来分析,此空格位于第一个that引导的定语从句中,that是从句的主语,assist是谓语动词,后面应该是名词短语作assist“帮助,辅助”的宾语。由此可知,空格前面overburdened animal为定语,空格处需要填入一个名词。再根据句意来分析,“不堪重负的动物收容所”最恰当,故L)shelters为本题的答案。
