Based on her convincing eyewitness testimony,a 22-year dad black man named Ronald Cotton was sentenced to prison for two life terms.Cotton's lawyer appealed the decision,and by the time of the the hearing,evidence had come to light suggesting that the real rapist might have been a man who looked v, like Cotton,an imprisoned criminal named Bobby Poole.________(47)Jennifer Thompson looked at b。 men face to face,and once again said that Ronald Cotton was the one who raped her.
Eleven years later, DNA evidence completely exonerated(证明……清白)Cotton and just as unequivocally (明确地)convicted Poole,who confessed to the crime._________(48)"The man I was so sure I had never seen in my life was the~who was inches from my throat,who raped me,who hurt me,who took my spirit away,who robbed me of my soul,"she wrote."And the man I had identified so surely on so many occasions、 absolutely innocent."_______(49)Remarkably both were able to put this tragedy behind them,overcome the racial ban that divided them,and write a book,which they have subtitled"Our memoir of injustice and redemption".Nevertheless,Thompson says,she still lives"with constant pain that my profound mistake cost him dearly,_________(50)"________(50)A:Jennifer Thompson decided to meet Cotton and apologize to him personally.B:Many criminals are sent to prison on the basis of accurate testimony by eyewitnesses,C:I cannot begin to imagine what would have happened had my mistaken identification occurred in a capital case。D:Another trial was held.E:Thompson was shocked and devastated.F:During the attack,she made an effort to memorize every detail of his face,looking for scars,tattoos(纹身),or other identifying marks.

解析
文章第二段最后-句话说,当警察让Jennifer Thompson从犯罪嫌疑人面部照片相册中指认伤害她的人时,她选出了一个人,并且认定这个人就是伤害她的那个,可推测出,她在遭受伤害时曾经见过嫌疑犯的脸并且看到过他身上的某些标志。故选F。
文章第三段前两句说,Ronald Cotton被判刑之后,又有证据显示另一个与他长相十分相似的人可能是真正的犯罪嫌疑人,而最后一句说,Jennifer Thompson又从这两个人中辨认,并上确定Ronald Cotton就是伤害她的那个人。联系上下文可以推测出,法院又对此案件进行了审理。故选D。
文章第四段第-句话说,十-年后,DNA证据彻底证明Ronald Cotton是清白的,并且;-个犯罪嫌疑人坦白了他的这-罪行,可以推测出Jennifer Thompson听到这个消息后一定是非常震惊的,并且说出了后面的话。故选E。
