The government is to ban payments to witnesses by newspapers seeking to buy up people involved in prominent cases 21 the trial of Rosemary West.
In a significant 22 of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a 23 bill that will propose making payments to witnesses 24 and will strictly control the amount of 25 that can be given to a case 26 a trial begins. In a letter to Gerald Kaufman, chairman of the House of Commons media select committee, Lord Irvine said he 27 with a committee report this year which said that self regulation did not 28 sufficient control.
29 of the letter came two days after Lord Irvine caused a 30 of media protest when he said the 31 of privacy controls contained in European legislation would be left to judges 32 to Parliament. The Lord Chancellor said introduction of the Human Rights Bill, which 33 the European Convention on Human Rights legally 34 in Britain, laid down that everybody was 35 to privacy and that public figures could go to court to protect themselves and their families. "Press freedoms will be in safe hands 36 our British judges," he said.
Witness payments became an 37 after West was sentenced to 10 life sentences in 1995. Up to 19 witnesses were 38 to have received payments for telling their stories to newspapers. Concerns were raised 39 witnesses might be encouraged to exaggerate their stories in court to 40 guilty verdicts.
选项
A、present
B、offer
C、manifest
D、indicate
答案
B
解析
offer此题属于语意搭配题。选项[A]present作动词时表示“赠送,呈现”,用法为present sb.with sth.或present sth.to sb.,例如:The boy presented the singer with a bunch offlowers.该选项与本题语法上不符,可排除。选项[C]manifest作动词表示“证明,表明”(show a feeling,attitude etc.),例如:They have so far manifested a total indifference toour concerns.选项[D]indicate表示“表明,指出”,例如:He indicated the importance ofexercises.这两个选项与句子中的宾语sufficient control搭配,不能说明什么。因此选项[B]offer(提供)是正确答案。全句可译为:Irvine勋爵在给下议院大众传媒特别委员会主席Gerald Kaufman的一封信中说,今年该委员会的一篇报告中指出了单靠自我约束这一措施并没有能充分控制媒体;对于这一点,他很赞成。
