What is the topic of the news?
[8] A judge in the American state of Utah has sanctioned the execution of a convicted murderer by firing squad. Ronnie Lee Gardner will be the first person in the U.S. to face a firing squad in 14 years. Gardner was convicted in 1985 of killing an attorney in a botched escape attempt.
In signing the warrant for Ronnie Lee Gardner’s execution, a judge in Salt Lake City gave the convicted murderer the choice of death by lethal injection or facing a firing squad. Gardner chose the latter. The case has already re-ignited the debate in Utah about the use of firing squads. Oklahoma is the only other state to sanction them since capital punishment was reinstated in the U.S. in 1976. But it has never killed anyone this way.
选项
A、The execution of a convicted murderer.
B、Firing squad execution.
C、Capital punishment.
D、American law ruling death.
答案
B
解析
主旨题。听音后可知, 新闻报道的是美国犹他州一名死刑犯被行刑队(firing squad)执行枪决的事, 新闻整篇都在讨论行枪决这种死刑方式。 因此新闻的主题就是[B]。
