When someone commits a criminal act, we always hope the punishment will match the offense. But when it comes to one of the cruelest crimes—animal fighting—things【C1】______ work out that way. Dog-fighting victims are【C2】______ and killed for profit and "sport," yet their criminal abusers often receive a【C3】______ sentence for causing a lifetime of pain. Roughly half of all federally-convicted animal fighters only get probation(缓刑).
Some progress has been made in the prosecution(起诉)of animal fighters. But federal judges often rely heavily on the U. S. Sentencing Guidelines when they【C4】______ penalties, and in the case of animal fighting, those guidelines are outdated and extremely【C5】______ .
The U. S. Sentencing Commission, which【C6】______ these sentencing guidelines, is revisiting them, proposing to raise the minimum sentence from 6-12 to 21 -27 months. This is a step in the right【C7】______ , but we’d like to see the U. S. Sentencing Commission make further changes to the guidelines.
Along with this effort, we’re working with animal advocates and state and federal lawmakers to【C8】______ anti-cruelty laws across the country, as well as supporting laws and policies that assist overburdened animal【C9】______ that care for animal fighting victims. This help is【C10】______ important because the high cost of caring for animal victims is a major factor that prevents people from getting involved in cruelty cases in the first place.

选项
答案
M
解析
动词辨析题。空格前面有不定式to,而从句意上判断,这里是说我们正与一些动物保护者以及州和联邦立法者们一起努力,想要达到某一目的,因此这里是to引导的目的状语,空格应填入动词原形。备选动词中hesitate不符合句意,因此应选M)strengthen。在备选的动词原形中,determine已选,故排除。
