5.(D)     The government has proposed a plan requiring young people to perform services to correct various current social ills, especially those in education and housing. Government service, however, should be compelled only in response to a direct threat to the nation’s existence. For that reason, the proposed program should not be implemented.

Which one of the following is an assumption on which the government depends?

(A) Government-required service by young people cannot correct all social ills.

(B) The nation’s existence is directly threatened only in times of foreign attack.

(C) Crises in education and housing constitute a threat to the nation’s existence.

(D) The nation’s young people believe that current social ills pose no direct threat to the nation’s existence.（E）

(E) Some of the social ills that currently afflict the nation do not pose a direct threat to the nation’s existence.

D是不是错在young people believe……如果去掉,是不是就对了呢?

E,的Some of the social ills that currently afflict the nation 画线部分从原文哪里可以看出来啊?

Some of the social ills that currently afflict the nation---------------"various current social ills"

If D is changed to what you said, it would be a correct answer
