We have a "common law", or law made by courts 【B1】______ a monarch or other central governmental 【B2】______ like a legislature. The jury, a【B3】______of ordinary citizens chosen to decide a case, is an 【B4】______ part of our common-law system.
    Use of juries to decide cases is a 【B5】______ feature of the American legal system. Few other countries in the world use juries as we do in the United States. 【B6】______the centuries, many people have believed that juries in most cases reach a fairer and more just result 【B7】______ would be obtained using a judge 【B8】______, as many countries do. 【B9】______ a jury decides cases after "【B10】______", or discussions among a group of people, the jury’ s decision is likely to have the【B11】______from many different people from different backgrounds, who must as a group decide what is right.

【B11】
选项 A、outline
B、outcome
C、input
D、intake
答案C
解析 考查名词辨析。空格所在句子的意思为：陪审团的决定可能有来自不同背景的不同人的______。要填入的单词受到from many different people from different backgrounds，who must as a group decide what is right的限定，既然这些人“能够决定事情的对错”，那么他们的决定一定是有影响力的，因此C．input是正确答案，可表示“影响”。outline意为“概述，略述，轮廓”；outcome一般指“(事件或行为的)结果，效果”；intake意为“摄取量，接收入数”，均不符合题意。
