C、rather than
D、sooner than

C
解析
联系上下文,全题意思是“当Irvine 阁下说,包含了欧洲法规的对个人权力控制这方面的解释将归法官而不归议会时,引起了媒体的强烈抗议。”rather than 与其……不如……,不是……而是……,除了。符合文义。other than 除了……之外,不同于,非。有的词组形式上是比较级,但并不真正用来表示两个事物,而是构成了固定的表达法。例如:more than 不止;more than a little 十分,非常;no more than 不过,仅仅;more or less 大体上,或多或少;no more...than...与……同样不;no less than 不亚于;not less than 不少于;all the more 因而更知;other than 除了; rather than 而不是。
