Lawyers are less than 1% of American adults,【C1】______ they are well-represented in government. Both the president and the vice-president trained as lawyers. So did 55% of senators and 100% of Supreme Court justices. There are【C2】______ to having a bit of legal expertise among those who write and【C3】______ the nation’s laws, or assess their constitutionality. But there is also a potential conflict of interest. If florists had such a lock on the levers of power, you might expect subsidies for weddings and a campaign to beautify cities. Lawyers, alas, are no more【C4】______.
The American legal system is the most lawyer-friendly on Earth. It is dizzily【C5】______. The regulations that accompany the Dodd-Frank law governing Wall Street, for example, are already more than 3 million words long—and not yet half-written. Companies must hire【C6】______ lawyers to guide them through a labyrinth(迷宫)created by other lawyers. They must also hire lawyers to defend themselves against attacks by other lawyers on a playing field【C7】______ by lawyers. The cost—roughly $800 a year for every American—is passed on to consumers. The benefits are hard to detect. Americans are probably no less likely to be injured or【C8】______ than the citizens of countries that spend a fraction as much.
So it is hard to feel sympathy for lawyers facing a【C9】______ labour market. America’s 250 biggest law firms shed more than 9,500 people last year. Law students are struggling to find the lavishly paid work they expected after graduation. One big law firm even went bust. None of this is nice for the people【C10】______, especially those with large student debts.
【C1】
选项
答案
D
解析
空格前后为成分完整的分句,因此空格应填入并列连词或从句的引导词。空格前的分句说“律师仅占成人的1%”,强调数量少,而空格后的分句说“他们在政府中很有代表性”,两者是转折关系,故选but。
