标题: 请教一道LR， 谢谢 [打印本页] 作者: didiwei 时间: 2009-4-24 09:18 标题: 请教一道LR， 谢谢 Editorial: a recently passed law limits freedom of speech in order to silence dissenters. It has been said that those who are ignorant of history will repeat its patterns. If this is true, then those responsible for passing the law must be ignorant of a great deal of history. Historically, silencing dissenters has tended to promote undemocratic policies and the establishment of authoritarian.
The editorialist's reasoning is flawed in that it fails to take into account that
A the law may have other purposes in addition to silencing dissenters
B certain freedoms might sometimes need to be limited in order to ensure the protection of certain other freedoms
C some historical accounts report that legal restrictions on freedom of speech have occassionally undermined the establishment of authoritarian regimes
D many good laws have been passed by people who are largely ignorant of history
E even those who are not ignorant of history many repeat its patterns
这道题答案选E。 读得不是很懂，不太明白为什么选C。 哪位大牛帮我解释一下啊？谢谢
