11、际情况，不是人们对其的看法。B(2020绍兴高三调研)The United States Congress is responsible for making and approving federal lawsrules that everyone in the country must follow. But exactly how do those laws get made? The process is not easy, and it takes a long time.A law begins when someone puts forward an idea. The idea
12、 can come from anyone, but it has to get to a US lawmaker who wants it to become legislation(法律). In time, the idea is further developed into a written proposal, called a bill.Then, a member of Congress officially proposes the bill. After the bill is introduced, it is sent to a small group of lawmak
13、ers, called a “committee”. Sometimes committee members seek more information about the proposal by holding hearings. Sometimes the committee changes the bill. Sometimes it decides not to take any action. In that case, we say lawmakers “table” the bill, or let it “die in the committee”But now and the
14、n, the bill is offered to lawmakers not on the committee. Those lawmakers debate the bill further. They might change the bill again. Finally, the full House or Senate votes on the bill. If it does not earn the majority of votes, the bill does not advance.Finally, the agreedupon bill is sent to the p
15、resident. If the president signs it, the bill becomes a law. If the president does nothing and Congress is officially meeting, the bill becomes a law. But if the president does nothing and Congress is not in session, the bill does not pass. Or the president can officially reject the bill. If that ha
16、ppens, the bill is not stopped. Instead, it is returned to both the Senate and the House. If twothirds of the senators and twothirds of the House members approve the bill once again, even with the president objecting, they turn the bill into a law.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了美国法律的制定过程。4Who is the first to propose

19、roposed, the bill cant be changed.A解析：推理判断题。根据对全文的整体理解，尤其是最后三段的内容可知，一项议案最终变成法律需要走很多程序，在这些程序中议案有可能被搁置或被否决，由此可推知，并不是每一项议案都会变成法律。.完形填空Sitting at a table in my school cafeteria, I looked around, slowly taking in everything.
