标题: last-5-2-25

25.  The public in the United States has in the past been conditioned to support a substantial defense budget by the threat of confrontation with the Eastern bloc. Now that that threat is dissolving, along with the Eastern bloc itself, it is doubtful whether the public can be persuaded to support an adequate defense budget.


Which one of the following indicates a weakness in the position expressed above?


(A) It presupposes that public opinion can be manipulated indefinitely, without the public’s becoming aware of that manipulation.


(B) It refers to past and present events that do not have a causal connection with public support of the budget.


(C) It assumes as fact what it seeks to establish by reasoning.


(D) It fails to give any reason for the judgment it reaches.(E)


(E) It hinges on the term “adequate,” the precise meaning of which requires reevaluation in the new context.


e选项是什么意思啊???HELP ME.

就是说adequate在不同情况下的意义,在有危机时,adequate budget包括support substantial defense,但在和平期,一般的defense就够了,但对于这个和平时期还是adequate的,所以这个adequate有问题。
