In a significant【B2】______of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a【B3】______bill that will propose making payments to witnesses【B4】______and will strictly control the amount of【B5】______that can be given to a case【B6】______a trial begins.
In a letter to Gerald Kaufman, chairman of the House of Commons Media Select Committee, Lord Irvine said he【B7】______with a committee report this year which said that self regulation did not【B8】______sufficient control.

The Lord Chancellor said introduction of the Human Rights Bill, which【B13】______the European Convention on Human Rights legally【B14】______in Britain, laid down that everybody was【B15】______to privacy and that public figures could go to court to protect themselves and their families.

【B20】
选项
A、assure
B、confide
C、ensure
D、guarantee
答案
C
解析
考查动词辨析。guilty verdicts意为“(陪审团的)定罪决定”。此处意为“证人被鼓励在法庭上夸大事实,目的就为了______定罪”。assure“使人相信”,一般用于assure sb.of sth./assure sb.that。confide“吐露(内幕),托付”,与题意无关。guarantee“保证,担保”,但不符题意,保证有罪判绝不是证人能做到的。ensure表示努力推动或确保某事的发生,证人的目的就是想确保让被告得到定罪,符合题意,因此选C。
