37. Thyrian lawmaker: Thyria’s Cheese Importation Board
inspects all cheese shipments to Thyria and rejects
shipments not meeting specifi ed standards. Yet only 1
percent is ever rejected. Therefore, since the health
consequences and associated economic costs of not
rejecting that 1 percent are negligible, whereas the
board’s operating costs are considerable, for
economic reasons alone the board should be
disbanded.
Consultant: I disagree. The threat of having their
shipments rejected deters many cheese exporters
from shipping substandard product.
The consultant responds to the lawmaker’s
argument by
(A) rejecting the lawmaker’s argument while
proposing that the standards according to which
the board inspects imported cheese should be
raised
(B) providing evidence that the lawmaker’s
argument has signifi cantly overestimated the
cost of maintaining the board
(C) objecting to the lawmaker’s introducing into the
discussion factors that are not strictly economic
(D) pointing out a benefi t of maintaining the board,
which the lawmaker’s argument has failed to
consider
(E) shifting the discussion from the argument at
hand to an attack on the integrity of the cheese
inspectors
怎么理解啊不太明白谢谢啦~

lawmaker: 设了个关卡检查，不合格的产品就退回去，结果发现只有1%不合格，所以说设这个关卡是浪费成本应该撤销

consultant: 不同意。因为这个关卡可以起到防止别人把不合格产品送过来（也就是有震慑效果）
D----指出这个关卡有个lawmaker没有留意到的好处---也就是原文说的震慑效果---所以这个是答案
