问题    The country’s inadequate mental health system gets the most attention after instances of mass violence that the nation has seen repeatedly over the past few months. Not all who【C1】______these sorts of cruelties are mentally ill, but 【C2】______ have been. After each, the national discussion quickly, but temporarily, turns toward the mental health services that may have 【C3】______to prevent another attack.
   Mental illness usually is not as dangerous or dramatic.【C4】_____23 million Americans live with mental disorder, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Very few of these men and women are【C5】______mass-murderers; they need help for their own well-being and for that of their【C6】______. The Affordable Care Act has significantly increased insurance coverage 【C7】______ mental health care. But that may not be enough to expand 【C8】______ to insufficient mental-health-care resources.
   Tim Murphy has a bill that would do so. The Helping Families in Mental Health Crisis Act is more 【C9】______ than other recent efforts to reform the system and perhaps has the brightest prospects in a divided Congress. The【C10】______would reorganize the billions the federal government pours into mental health services. It would【C11】______the way Medicaid pays for certain mental health treatments. It would fund mental health clinics that【C12】______certain medical standards. And it would【C13】______states to adopt policies that allow judges to order some severely mentally ill people to undergo treatment.
   Not everyone is satisfied. Some patients’ advocates have【C14】______Mr. Murphy’ s approach as coercive and【C15】______to those who need help. The government should not be expanding the system’ s capability to hospitalize or impose treatment on those【C16】______severe episodes, they say. It should instead be investing in community care that【C17】______the need for more serious treatment.【C18】______, for a small class who will not accept treatment between hospital visits or repeat arrests, they say, states have good reason to【C19】______them to accept care, under judicial supervision. Mr. Murphy’s reform package may not prevent the next Sandy Hook.【C20】______the changes would help relieve a lot of suffering that does not make the front page.
【C1】

选项 A、grant
B、commit
C、afford
D、award

答案B

解析 此处的句意为“不是所有______这些残酷罪行的人都有心理疾病……”。此处所填 动词需与后面的cruelties构成搭配,故B.commit“犯,犯罪;做错事”符合题意,为正确 答案。grant“授予”后接“权利、财物”等词,afford“给予;买得起”后接某一种物品,award “授予,奖励”常跟奖励的具体东西。三项均不符合题意,故排除。
