问题    The English word "veto" means "I will not permit". It is a way for one member of a group or government to 【C1】______ action by other members.

Britain and France did this in 1956. They vetoed a resolution 【C4】______ Israel to withdraw its forces from Egyptian territory.
   The most 【C5】______ use of the veto is by an executive over the legislative in a government with a president. The United States Constitution 【C6】______ such a veto. The 【C7】______ also says a president’s veto can be changed by a second vote of Congress. This is called overriding the president’s veto. For a bill to become law, 【C8】______ of the members of both houses of Congress 【C9】______vote to override the president’s veto. Throughout American history, presidents 【C10】______ more than 2 500 congressional bills. Congress has been able to override the president’s veto 【C11】______ 104 times. Presidents in the late 1800s and early 1700s did not use the veto frequently.

He has different ideas about 【C15】______ parts of government should be cut and by how much. He already vetoed at least one of these bills.
【C3】______
选项 A、Both
B、All of which
C、Every
D、Each
答案D
解析  从语法角度分析，本题答案为该句主语。根据前文及常识，可以知道在此充当主语的为上述五国。然后根据选择项一一排查。Both意为“两者都”，用来表达双方的情况，但是，此处有五个国家，因此可以排除选择项A。B．All of which虽然可以用以表示“其中所有的”，但通常用于非限定性定语从句句首，而此处为独立的句子，并非从句，因此选择项B．也可排除。C．very也可以代表全体，但它是形容词，不能做主语。D．Each为代词，意为“每个”，满足了语法和词义两方面的要求，是本题正确答案。
