标题: 请教一题
Q38:

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.

我选E。这个不是ＧＭＡＴ题吧？感觉和ＧＭＡＴ不是一个思路的。

这是哪的题呀? 我选C.

答案应该是B

理解问题很重要。该问题是：该请求对那些认为该建议要将Local 立法扩大到整个state范围的选民，是起误导作用（misleading）。其实就是找个选项WEAKEN选民对该建议的理解，即该建议不能使选民的希望实现。理解了这点，就明白B是答案了。其实这些人在开空头支票，银行里本来没钱，却开出不小金额的支票。

该问题是：该请求对那些认为该建议要将Local 立法扩大到整个state范围的选民，是起误导作用（misleading）。其实就是找个选项WEAKEN选民对该建议的理解，即该建议不能使选民的希望实现。

这点我当时就是按这个思路解题的,我的问题在于对选项B和C的理解上.我当时理解B的few是"几乎没有", 但我认为它没有完全否定,且题干中是most town,所以该pertition还是能扩大范围的.可能我太钻牛角尖了 C我想它实际上是supersede the local antismoking ordinances, 而原来的local antismoking ordinances更严格,所以支持该state law的pertition 就不是extending the local antismoking ordinances statewide.

请问C错在什么地方?

注意选民对该建议的理解是extending the local antismoking ordinances statewide。是范围的扩大，不是要求的严松。B的few正是几乎没有，就是所有RURAL中几乎没有或者很少对外开放的retail establishments and in government offices，就是该建议其实作用很少，不需要完全没有。就是实际没有或很少extend，所以才误导他们认为有extend statewide。

lawyer,我赞成你对题目的理解

但是我认为B不对

因为proposal说的是对对公众开放的地方禁烟而B说的农村没有对公众开放的地方这一点也不能削弱因为focus的对象不一样啊

其实问题在于extend的副词是statewide，就是范围的extend，不是严格不严格的extend。

这道题我懂了, 确实应是B正确.我就晕在这个"严格不严格的extend"上了, 还是没有读清题意. 其实即使是The state law would supersede the local antismoking ordinances, 结论还是照样成立, 该 proposal 还是 extending the local ordinances statewide.

咳, lawyer, 想让我不佩服你都不行!
