问题     Politicians beware. Software can examine legislative bills, working out the【C1】________of the text. It could allow voters to see who【C2】________determines what goes into bills.
    There is a long history of companies and other vested interests【C3】________legislation by lobbying (游说) politicians. So researchers at the University of Chicago’s Data Science for Social Good programme have created the Legislative Influence Detector. This traces the text of US bills, searching for passages that have been cribbed (抄袭) from lobbyists or the legislatures of other states.
    To get the real story behind a bill, the software【C4】________through 500, 000 state bills, as well as thousands of pieces of text drafted by lobbyist groups that were saved into a database. An algorithm (运算程序 ) then calculates die top 100 documents most【C5】________to the bill in question before examining each one more closely, searching for passages the two have in common.
    The software can turn up lines of text【C6】________written by activists and special interest groups. Or it might find that the bill borrows largely from laws already in place elsewhere, giving【C7】________citizens the chance to explore how the policy worked out there.
    The detector is the latest in a string of projects that try to use computers to hold governments to【C8】________. At the University of Texas at Arlington, computer scientist Chengkai Li is building a system to fact-check the【C9】________of politicians in real time. Li envisions a final platform that can scan through the transcript of a speech or presidential debate, picking out the lines that we already know to be true or false so journalists can work on【C10】________more complicated claims.
    A) account         F) digs            K) remarks
    B) actually        G) exactly         L) sees
    C) checking        H) influencing     M) similar
    D) concerned       I) originally      N) source
    E) curious         J) relevant        O) statements [br] 【C2】
选项
答案 B
解析 副词辨析题。空格处于一个宾语从句中，该从句的主语为who，空格后有谓语动词determines，且句子主干完整，可以判断该处应填入副词。由第二段首句可知，立法提案背后常常由一些利益集团操控，因此本句的意思就是要找出谁是法案内容的真正决定者，故答案为B)actually“实际上，真正地”。
