Famous personalities found guilty of many types of crimes in well-publicized trials are increasingly sentenced to the performance of community service, though unknown defendants convicted of similar crimes almost always serve prison sentences. However, the principle of equality before the law rules out using fame and publicity as relevant considerations in the sentencing of convicted criminals.
The statements above, if true, most strongly support which one of the following conclusions?
(A) The principle of equality before the law is rigorously applied in only a few types of criminal trials.
(B) The number of convicted celebrities sentenced to community service should equal the number of convicted unknown defendants sentenced to community service.
(C) The principle of equality before the law can properly be overridden by other principles in some cases.
(D) The sentencing of celebrities to community service instead of prison constitutes a violation of the principle of equality before the law in many cases.（D）
(E) The principle of equality before the law does not allow for leniency in sentencing.
我选C,正确答案为D.不明白,请指教
1。C错在原文并没有说对celebrities的判决是proper的。
2。相反，原文用however将该判决转折掉，意味着否定，然后提出一个和该判决相违背的原则，说明该判决违背该原则。即D
题目先说了一个现象：同样的罪行，普通人重罚，名人轻罚。然后用however说：法律面前应该人人平等。题目让你conclusion！当然是D
如果该题变成请解释现象和原则之间的矛盾，则C是一个答案。
你可以再体会一下conclusion题和解释矛盾题之间的区别。
