The jury, a【C3】______of ordinary citizens chosen to decide a case, is an【C4】______ part of our common-law system.
Use of juries to decide cases is a 【C5】______feature of the American legal system. Few other countries in the world use juries as we do in the United States. 【C6】______the centuries, many people have believed that juries in most cases reach a fairer and more just result 【C7】______would be obtained using a judge 【C8】______, as many countries do. 【C9】______ a jury decides cases after "【C10】______", or discussions among a group of people, the jury’ s decision is likely to have the 【C11】______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【C12】______among 【C13】______ citizens, and criminal cases, which decide cases brought by the government【C14】______that individuals have committed crimes.

【C14】
选项
A、asserting
B、alleging
C、maintaining
D、testifying
答案
B
解析
考查动词辨析。空格处填入的现在分词做定语修饰名词cases,表示“由政府带来的刑事案件______个人犯罪”。因此关键是辨析几个核心动词。assert主观意味强,指“明确肯定,断言”,即自认为某事就是如此,而不管事实如何;allege多指“不提供证据的断言或宣称”;maintain指“坚决维护某种主张或观点”;testify多指“在法庭作证,庄严地宣称自己所说属实”。由于文中提到的案件是在陪审团作出裁决前由政府提出诉讼的案件,因此B.alleging“指控”为正确答案。
