acquitting the innocent It is often said that the British trial system is more
like a game than a serious attempt to do justice. The lawyers on each side are
so engrossed in playing hard to win, challenging each other and the judge on
technical points, that the object of finding out the truth is almost forgotten.
All the effort is concentrated on the big day, on the dramatic cross-examination
of the key witnesses in front of the jury. Critics like to compare our
"adversarial" system (resembling two adversaries engaged in a contest) with the
Continental "inquisitorial" system, under which the judge plays a more important
inquiring role. In early times, in the Middle Ages, the systems
of trial across Europe were similar. A. the British legal system can de the basic job well—convicting the guilty and acquitting the innocent B. the British legal system is worse than the Continental legal system C. the British legal system is often considered to be not very fair D. the British legal system is very efficient
