Re: [求譯] 一小段法律英文

: 補充一下lintz大的解釋
: legislative history = 立法歷程 ok
: congressional commitment to X = 國會對 X 的支持
: cross-sectional ideal 沒有 context 翻不出來

cross-sectional ideal is a legal concept
it refers to the selection of jury - there are two options
1) a jury that represents a typical cross-section of the community
 (in the extreme case, there could be mentally retarded jurors
  sitting next to a university professors)
2) a jury that represents "better than average intelligence
 (also known as blue ribbon jury)

you can consider 跨領域代表制 or something similar for the word.

consider:
從立法歷程可以看到，國會對於以跨領域代表制遴選陪審團的支持
並非如條文所寫的一往無前，而是持一種審慎、保留的態度。
(my chinese is not exactly good, but i guess you can start from this)
