标题: LSAT-6-2-20

Questions 20-21

Policy Adviser: Freedom of speech is not only a basic human right; it is also the only rational policy for this government to adopt. When ideas are openly aired, good idea flourish, silly proposals are easily recognized as such, and dangerous ideas can be responded to by rational argument. Nothing is ever gained by forcing citizens to disseminate their thoughts in secret.

20. The policy adviser’s method of persuasion, in recommending a policy of free speech to the government, is best described by which one of the following?

(A) a circular justification of the idea of free speech as an idea that flourishes when free speech is allowed

(B) advocating respect for basic rights of citizens for its own sake

(D) a warning about the difficulty of suppressing the truth（C）

(E) a description of an ideal situation that cannot realistically be achieved

我自己觉得题目看懂了，可是就是不知道，正确选项（C）中的self-interest是如何来的呢？

还有，为什么（E）不可以呢？

self-interest的表现：

good idea flourish, silly proposals are easily recognized as such, and dangerous ideas can be responded to by rational argument.

也就是说，提出freedom of speech建议的Policy Adviser，本身需要自己的建议可以被自由的表达以及被政府采用，所以说freedom of speech对adviser来说是关乎自己的self-interest的，是这个意思吗？

self-interest 中的self 在这个句子中指任何一个采纳freedom of speech的国家。
