After the horror became public in his hometown, Sylacauga,
Alabama, city council president George Carlton told a reporter,
"This is not the type of place that this happens. " A week ago, few【S1】______
people could have pointed out Sylacauga on a map. A tiny city of
13,000, halfway between Birmingham and Montgomery, Sylacauga
was known as for its white marble quarries, textile mills and ice-【S2】______
cream factories. And last week Sylacauga became a chapter in the【S3】______
recent history of hatred.
According to police, Steven Eric Mullins, 25, and Charles
Monroe Butler Jr. , 21, plotted for two weeks to murder Billy Jack
Gaither, 39. In Feb. 19, they arranged to meet him at a Sylacauga【S4】______
bar and lured him to secluded area. There they beat him and【S5】______
dump him into the trunk of his car. They then drove about 15 miles【S6】______
to Peckerwood Creek. There, says Sheriffs Deputy Al Bradley,
" they took him out of the trunk, took an ax handle and beat him to
death. " They set two old tires flame, says Bradley, "then they put【S7】______
the body on the fire. " They did it all, the deputy says, while【S8】______
Gaither was gay.
Gaither’s death has become a rallying point for gay-rights
organizations and state legislators’ pushing a bill that would extend【S9】______
Alabama’s three-year-old hate-crimes law beyond race, color,
religion and national origin to cover crimes related to sexual
orientation as well. "It’s fortunate that somebody had to lose his life【S10】______
in order for this legislation to pick up momentum here in the state of
Alabama," says state Representative Alvin Holmes, who failed to
get the original law amended when it was passed in 1996.
【S10】
选项
答案
fortunate—unfortunate
解析
语义错误。这句话的意思是“州议员阿尔文·福尔摩斯认为非得用某人的死来使这项法律在阿拉巴马州得以通过的动力实在是件令人遗憾的事。”所以应该使用unfortunate。
