【C17】
选项 A、remedy
B、amend
C、correct
D、rectify
答案B
解析 动词辨析题。句意同上。四个动词为近义词，都有“纠正，改正”的意思，容易混淆，其区别是：remedy基本意思是“治疗，纠正”，当表示“纠正”时，尤指对困难或棘手问题的解决。amend“改善，改进”，侧重在原有基础上更正或改变，使之更好，符合更高的要求。例如：Congress may amend the proposed taxbill．(议会可能会修正提议的征税法。)correct“调整，纠正错误”，指纠正或改正不正确、不真实或有缺的东西。例如：We correct these errors in the next steps．(在以下步骤中将改正这些错误。)rectify“纠正，整顿”，指彻底改正偏离了正确标准或规则的东西，例如：The local government was taking emergencymeasures to rectify the state of chaos．(地方政府正在采取紧急措施整顿这种混乱局面。)由文章可知，各个机构是根据调查结果来改进原有政策，所填入的动词应具有“改进”的含义。四个选项中只有amend的含义为“修订，改进”，所以为答案。
