Can you change your name just because you don’t like it? And the answer appears to be "yes" in Virginia and "no" in New York. The Virginia【C1】______ involved two women who wanted to take their maiden names【C2】______ even though they were still married. The lower court in Virginia【C3】______ their request for change of name on the【C4】______ that Virginia law, like that of many states, allowed a married woman to【C5】______ her maiden name only after she was divorced. But the Virginia Supreme Court【C6】______ the lower court saying that there was nothing in the law【C7】______ indicated that a name could only be changed after【C8】______ . The court then pointed out that【C9】______ the common law, a person is free to adopt a new name as【C10】______ as it’s not for a fraudulent purpose or to cheat creditors.【C11】______ you live in New York, however, you【C12】______ well have a more difficult time changing your name. A woman named Copperman went to【C13】______ to have her name changed to Copperperson. She explained that she believed in the feminist【C14】 and felt that the name Copperperson could more properly【C15】______ her sense of human equality than could the name Copperman.【C16】______ New York Supreme Court Justice John Scileppi did not agree with her reasoning and refused to【C17】______ the change-of-name request. He wrote that "the possibilities are【C18】______ endless and this would truly be【C19】______ the realm of nonsense." So Miss Copperman,【C20】______ she gets married, or move to Virginia.
【C8】
选项
A、marriage
B、check
C、appeal
D、divorce
答案
D
解析
语义衔接题。上句提到the lower court反对这两名女士改名字的原因:只有离婚后才能恢复自己结婚前的名字,而此句是说并没有法律暗示只有离婚后才能用自己的名字,故答案为D项。
