In one state, all cities and most towns have antismoking ordinances. A petition entitled “Petition for Statewide Smoking Restriction” is being circulated to voters by campaign workers who ask only, “Do you want to sign a petition for statewide smoking restriction?” The petition advocates a state law banning smoking in most retail establishments and in government offices that are open to the public.
Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide?
A. Health costs associated with smoking cause health insurance premiums to rise for everyone and so affect nonsmokers.
B. In rural areas of the state, there are relatively few retail establishments and government offices that are open to the public.
C. The state law would supersede the local antismoking ordinances, which contain stronger bans than the state law does.
D. There is considerable sentiment among voters in most areas of the state for restriction of smoking.
E. The state law would not affect existing local ordinances banning smoking in places where the fire authorities have determined that smoking would constitute a fire hazard.
好难,主要是不明白它到底问的是什么。Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide? 这句话怎么理解,谁能翻译一下?我的感觉是:下面哪种情况会使这个请愿书成为对(把这个请愿理解为“把地方法规全州化”的)投票人的广泛传播的误导。可是,这句话啥意思?是不是说,使这个请愿书成为一种误导(说这个请愿不是要把地方法规全州化而实际上它就是地方法规全州化) 可是我还是不知道选什么 考试碰到就惨了,谁对这个题有研究,指点指点吧! |
