23. The function of government is to satisfy the genuine wants of the masses, and government cannot satisfy those wants unless it is informed about what those wants are. Freedom of speech ensures that such information will reach the ears of government officials. Therefore, freedom of speech is indispensable for a healthy state.
Which one of the following, if true, would NOT undermine the conclusion of the argument?
(A) People most often do not know what they genuinely want.
(B) Freedom of speech tends ultimately to undermine social order, and social order is a prerequisite for satisfying the wants of the masses.
(C) The proper function of government is not to satisfy wants, but to provide equality of opportunity.
(D) Freedom of speech is not sufficient for satisfying the wants of the masses: social order is necessary as well.(D)
(E) Rulers already know what the people want.
我的理解是: 政府职能是满足大众需求,如果满足了大众需求,就说明政府已经获知了大众的需求.言论自由保证了政府的获知,所以言论自由是健康政府的必要条件.
satisfy wants -à informed , satisfy wants 是informed的充分条件
neg(freedom of speech)-àneg( informed) freedom of speech 是informed 的必要条件
这样就推出neg(freedom of speech )àneg(informed)àneg(satisfy wants ) freedom of speech是satisfy wants的必要条件
但是答案D 说) Freedom of speech is not sufficient for satisfying the wants of the masses: social order is necessary as well.
Is not sufficient for ..不就是说不是必要条件嘛?
