The sentence against Rajaratnam is the longest______ [br]
News Item 1
A court in the United States has sentenced a New York-based financier to 11 years in prison for insider trading, (1) the longest sentence in a generation for such an offence. Rajaratnam had already been found guilty of trading on illegal tips supplied by insiders at some of America’s leading companies.
Prosecutors calculated that Mr. Rajaratnam made up to $ 75 m by trading on illegal tips from a group of well-placed insiders. They added that Mr. Rajaratnam has shown no regret for his crimes. (2) But Mr. Rajaratnam’s defense lawyers counted that the Sri Lankan-born businessman made only $7m from the scheme and that his health problems called for mercy. It is thought Mr. Rajaratnam is likely to appeal against his sentence.
选项
A、he has not been proven of insider trading.
B、he has shown regret for his crimes.
C、the amount of money he made is not so large.
D、the illness he got is fatal and hopeless.
答案
C
解析
根据句(2)可知,Rajaratnam的辩护律师通过计算认为,他在这些交易中所获的利益只有七百万美元,而不是之前原告方所说的七千五百万美元,而且鉴于他的健康问题,也会向法庭提出宽大处理的请求,这两方面是他有可能提出上诉的原因,但没有涉及他的疾病问题及严重程度,故答案为[C]。
