With the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most【C1】______ issue across the United States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective deterrent(威慑)to murder,【C2】______ others maintain there is no convincing evidence that the death penalty reduces the number of murders.
The principal argument【C3】______ by those opposed to the death penalty, basically, is that it is cruel and inhuman punishment, that it is the mark of a【C4】______ society, and finally that it is of questionable effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway.
In our opinion, the death penalty is a【C5】______ evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those extreme individuals in every society who were【C6】______ of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others.
For example, it is one thing to【C7】______ the life of another in a fit of blind rage, but quite another to coldly plot and【C8】______ the murder of one or more people in the style of a butcher. Thus, murder,【C9】______ all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While it could be argued with some conviction, that the【C10】______ in the first instance should be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the latter type of murderer. [br] 【C5】
选项
A、dreadful
B、necessary
C、fierce
D、prevalent
答案
B
解析
本句是以作者为代表的一部分人的观点。通过下文的线索,即第四段中作者对两种杀人方式的区分和提出的惩罚措施,可以推断出作者对死刑是支持的。B项necessary(必要的)符合上下文的意思,因此是正确答案。A项dreadful意为"可怕的",C项fierce意为"凶猛的",都与文意相冲突。D项prevalent意为"流行的,普遍的"与文意相差甚远。
