参考解析
解析：
推理判断题。文章第二段第三句提到“the idea behind devolution was to restore the balance within the union of nations making up the United Kingdom.”为了重新建立英联邦各成员国之间的平衡。该段后面又具体指出，一直以来，英格兰都是had bragging rights，而这次部分立法权的转交就是为了让其它成员国有更大的发言权，这样做的目的就是实现各成员国之间的平等，故C项符合。A文中并未提及，可直接排除。本段第五句提到“The partial transfer of legislative powers from Westminster, implemented by Tony Blair...”由此可见减少英格兰的立法权并不精准，只是转移了它的立法权，并且这并不是devolution的目的，而是一项措施，故B项也可排除。D项说法过于绝对，并不是所有的成员，只是“to give the other members of the club-Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales”，故排除D。
