12、move didnt work well. DPfingsts move greatly encouraged the jailed prisoners. 篇章剖析 本文采用的是记叙文的模式。第一段指出芬斯特作为一位铁面无私的检查官的一些做法;第二段指出芬斯特实施“清白计划”的打算及做法;第三段指出实施“清白计划”造成的反应以及可能存在的问题;第四段和第五段是实施“清白计划”的结果和影响。 词汇注释 prosecutor 5prRsIkju:tE(r)n.检察官 ,检察员,起诉人,原告 controversial kRntrE5v:F(E)ladj.争论的, 争议的 mandate 5mAnd

14、Even before the tragedy是本句的时间状语;主句是Pfingst had stood behind;that引导的宾语从句修饰law;在从句中，asas是一词组，意思是“和一样”;出现的第三个as是介词，意思是“作为”。 句子译文：甚至在这场悲剧发生之前芬斯特就支持加利福尼亚州的一项颇有争议的法律。这项法律规定，以成人身份受审的谋杀嫌疑犯的最低年龄可以降到十四岁。 题目分析 1.答案为C，属事实细节题。文中对应信息“Pfingst told his attorneys to go back over old murderand rape convictions and se
15、e if any unravel with newly developed DNA-testingtools.”是对第二段第一句的补充说明。 2.答案为A，属推理判断题。从上下文我们可以得知，实施“清白计划”就是使用先进的DNA技术来重新审理过去的案件当中可能存在的冤案错案。 3.答案为D,属猜词题。从第二段第一句话我们得知芬斯特可能是美国第一个实施非常独特的“清白计划”的人，因此他的做法很可能是令人感到吃惊的，从而可猜出该词的含义。 4.答案为B，属推理判断题。从第一段和第二段给出的事例我们可以看出，芬斯特不愿放过任何一个犯罪的人，即便他的年龄还不算大;他也不愿使无辜者蒙冤，即便案件已经审理。 5.答案为C，属推理判断题。正因为 “Pfingsts move works well”,美国才又有“ten other counties arestarting DNA audits”,而且，“no budgets have been busted or prosecutors ousted”.
