In a letter to Gerald Kaufman, chairman of the House of Commons media select committee, Lord Irvine said he 27 with a committee report this year which said that self regulation did not 28 sufficient control.

选项
A、as to
B、for instance
C、in particular
D、such as
答案
D
解析
such as此题属于语意搭配题。选项[D]such as可指对上文的举例说明,表示“像那样的”,as后接名词,例如:I visited several cities such as Shanghai,Beijing and Guangzhou.也可分开用,即such...as,例如:students such as these(=such students as these)。空格后的thetrial of Rosemary West(对Rosemary West的审判一案)是对空格前的prominent cases(重大案件)的举例说明,因此[D]符合上下文的意思,是正确答案。选项[A]as to表示“关于,至于”,例如:As to money,he is indifferent.在wh-从句或短语前的as to可省略,例如:She was at a loss(as to)what to say.选项[B]for instance表示“例如”,放在句子中间时,前后常有逗号隔开,例如:There are rare animals in Australia,for instance,koalas and duckbills.(澳洲有稀有动物,例如考拉和鸭嘴兽。)选项[C]in particular表示“特别”,相当于especially,例如:This boy student,in particular,is good at playingbasketball.全句可译为:政府将禁止报界买断卷入非常惹人注目的案件的证人而付给证人报酬的这种行为,如Rosemary West一案。
