England has long been the jurisdiction (辖区) of choice for wives who have the luxury of being able to choose where they divorce.English law tries to(36)lifelong need and fairness.The poorer partner(37)a wife bringing up children——can expect housing and many years of income, especially if she has(38)her career for the marriage.
A court ruling on February 23rd has nonetheless continued a recent(39)of turning the scales a little for husbands.Tracey Wright objected to her ex-husband"s bid to cut her £ 75,000 annual(40), awarded after an 11-year marriage failed in 2008.

参考解答
正确答案:B
balance。空格位于triest0之后,故应填人动词原形。根据上文提到的“英格兰一直是拥有选择在哪离婚这种奢侈权力的妻子们喜欢选择的辖区”可知,此处说的应该是英国法律试图平衡终身需求与公平。故空格处应填入balance“使平衡”。备选的动词中,appeal“上诉,申诉”、cut“切割,削减”和provide“提供,供应”不符合文意,故排除。
