第2題:參與此案件的兩位律師TheodoreB.Olson和DavidBoies分別是共和黨和民主黨派人士，按照常理來推斷這兩位政見完全不同的人是不可能為了同一個(gè)目的而統(tǒng)一戰(zhàn)線的，所以用了unlikely來說明這個(gè)組合是多么讓人難以想象。選項(xiàng)C符合題意。

第3題:文章第三段第一句IfthePerrycasesucceedsbeforetheSupremeCourt,itcouldmeanthatgaymarriagewouldbepermittednotonlyinCaliforniabutineverystate提到同性結(jié)婚只有在加利福尼亞是合法的，在其他州還沒有合法，選項(xiàng)C符合題意。

第5題:文章主要講述了各方，包括律師、同性戀組織等對(duì)這次案件勝算的預(yù)計(jì)，盡管以O(shè)lson為代表的律師對(duì)這次案件很有信心，但是從后文可以看出這是場(chǎng)有風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的訴訟，所以選項(xiàng)A符合題意。
