选项
A、defied
B、denied
C、declined
D、deprived
答案
B
解析
语义衔接题。下段提到的these infringements(侵害)of civil rights指代本句Civil liberties suchas the right to vote…disability,由此可知,此处是说公民的自由权因为残疾被侵害。由Congress responded bypassing realior legislation recognizing people with disabilities…(国会以通过认可残疾人…的重要法律的方式作为回应)可知,这里说的自由权被侵害指的是权利不被认可,故答案为[B]denied“被否认的”,同时排除[D]deprived“剥夺”,它常与of搭配使用。[A]defied“公然违抗”常用来指公开地、勇敢地反对或抵抗法律、权威人物,有时含公然挑衅之意;[C]declined“拒绝”指婉言谢绝他人的帮助或邀请等。
