1. Quebec superior court justice Brian Riordan said
2. the companies had put profits before the health of their customers.
参考译文：魁北克高级法院法官布莱恩·赖尔登说, 这些公司把利润放在顾客的健康之前。

彩蛋来了！

2.a lawyer with one of the firms（不是烟草公司） that took on the tobacco companies
3. not just for the compensation for victims but also for public health and accountability".
参考译文：
参与较量烟草公司的一家律所的律师布鲁斯·约翰斯顿称这项裁决“具有历史性意义，不仅对补偿受害者来说，对公众健康和问责也是如此。“
思考题：
The rule by the Canadian court is called “historic” mainly for _____
法庭的判决被成为是历史性的，主要原因是：
(A) the compensation for justices in damages.
（法官们损失的赔偿）（这个选项太魔幻了吧！完全不对。）
(B) the sum of money involved with awarding.
（赔偿的金额）（不是主要原因！）
(C)the profits being put before court’s decision.
（利润被放到了法庭的决定之前）（这是偷换！）
(D) the concern about public health and responsibility.
（正确答案）
有的时候没有套路反而成为了一种套路，但是最好的办法就是以不变应万变，找到文中线索句：最后一句：not just for the compensation for victims but also for public health and accountability". Not just for… but for…but for= mainly for！所以 public health and accountability= public health and responsibility 完美替换！
2019考研英语中一定会有25%左右的题目是这个难度！
