问题     Politicians beware. Software can examine legislative bills, working out the【C1】________of the text. It could allow voters to see who【C2】________determines what goes into bills.
    There is a long history of companies and other vested interests【C3】________legislation by lobbying (游说) politicians. So researchers at the University of Chicago’s Data Science for Social Good programme have created the Legislative Influence Detector. This traces the text of US bills, searching for passages that have been cribbed (抄袭) from lobbyists or the legislatures of other states.
    To get the real story behind a bill, the software【C4】________through 500000 state bills, as well as thousands of pieces of text drafted by lobbyist groups that were saved into a database. An algorithm (运算程序) then calculates the top 100 documents most【C5】________to the bill in question before examining each one more closely, searching for passages the two have in common.
    The software can turn up lines of text【C6】________written by activists and special interest groups. Or it might find that the bill borrows largely from laws already in place elsewhere, giving【C7】________citizens the chance to explore how the policy worked out there.
    The detector is the latest in a string of projects that try to use computers to hold governments to【C8】________.
