选项
A、binding
B、convincing
C、restraining
D、sustaining
答案
A
解析
此题属于语意搭配题。选项A binding表示“有约束力的”,例如:a binding contract/ agreement。上文提到了the Human Rights Bill(人权法案),可与binding搭配,故A binding是正确答案。选项B convincing表示“有说服力的”,例如:His explanation is convincing.选项C restraining表示“制止,抑制”;选项D sustaining表示“支撑,继续”;这两个选项一般都不用于这样的结构。
