Which of the following best fits in the blanks (A), (B) and (C)?
Congress is considering a series of bills that, if passed into law, would (A)________ changes to the Endangered Species Act that could shift control of conservation measures to state and local governments, accelerate decisions about whether species need protecting, and (B)________ courts’ power to overturn decisions to lift or loosen species protections, the Associated Press (AP) reports. Many Democrats and wildlife advocates argue that the proposed changes will put the world’s biodiversity at risk. “The wildlife extinction package is an extreme and all-encompassing assault on the Endangered Species Act,” Bob Dreher, senior vice president of conservation programs at the nonprofit conservation organization Defenders of Wildlife, says in a statement posted by YubaNet.com. “These bills discard science, increasing the likelihood of harm to species and habitat, create hurdles to protecting species, and (C)________ citizen’s ability to enforce the law in court, while delegating authority for species management to states―or even corporations and individuals―that are ill-equipped to assume it.”

빈칸에 알맞은 조합은 “institute”(시행하다), “limit”(제한하다), “undermine”(약화시키다)이다.
(A)는 changes를 목적어로 받아 법 개정을 도입한다는 뜻이다. (B)는 “put the world’s biodiversity at risk”(세계 생물다양성을 위험에 빠뜨린다)는 비판을 받는 법안이 보호 해제 결정을 뒤집는 법원의 권한을 줄인다는 뜻이고, (C)는 “create hurdles”(장애물을 만든다)와 나란히 시민의 소송 능력을 해친다는 뜻이다.
“initiate / hinder / rectify”: “rectify”(바로잡다)는 시민의 권리를 해친다는 비판과 맞지 않는다.
“bolster / indulge / remedy”: “indulge”(마음껏 하게 하다)와 “remedy”(개선하다)가 (B)·(C)에 맞지 않는다.
“nullify / expand / ruin”: “nullify”(무효화하다)는 changes와 맞지 않고, “expand”(확대하다)는 (B)와 반대이다.
“instruct / widen / block”: “instruct”(지시하다)는 changes와 호응하지 않고, “widen”(넓히다)은 (B)와 반대이다.
