T-4-Q38

In one state, all cities and most towns have antismoking ordinances, a petition entitled “Petition for Statewide Smoking Restriction” is being circulated to voters by campaign workers who ask only, “Do you want to sign a petition for statewide smoking restriction?” The petition advocates a state law banning smoking in most retail establishments and in government offices that are open to the public.

Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide?

 

A.      Health costs associated with smoking cause health insurance premiums to rise for everyone and so affect nonsmokers.

B.       In rural areas of the state, there are relatively few retail establishments and government offices that are open to the public.

C.      The state law would supersede the local antismoking ordinances, which contain stronger bans than the state law does.

D.      There is considerable sentiment among voters in most areas of the state for restriction of smoking.

E.       The state law would not affect existing local ordinances banning smoking in places where the fire authorities have determined that smoking would constitute a fire hazard.

这道题题目把我绕晕了，哪位兄弟姐妹帮忙解释解释，谢谢哈

原文主要谈论"禁烟请愿"

注意以下内容:

sign a petition for statewide smoking restriction和 in most retail establishments and in government offices that are open to the public

问题:易产生误导请愿的情况.

选项:A ---- Health costs,  C----state law would supersede,  D----considerable sentiment,  E----affect existing local ordinances 以及fire authorities均与原文探讨不相关,为无关选项.

正确选项B----因为在乡村法律所产生的效益远小于城市(retail establishments and government offices乡村 <城市)  ,故而乡村地区人民在“Petition for Statewide Smoking Restriction”情况下赞同请愿从而导致请愿通过,但最终导致城市受其重要影响.

IMO, I go for E.

The translation from the upstairs is ok, but B, rather than E, is irrelevant to the question.

E is the answer which cracks the question. The question is "Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide". Read it twice, then you will find out.

不好意思,我不同意你的观点,还望大家指教.

我即将考试,还望大家指教,但我暂且保留意见选B..

B吧。觉得关键是理解问题
Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide?
   

其实这句可能这样更正确些
Which of the following circumstances would make the petition misleading as circulated to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide?
    

什么情况可以让这个请愿活动误解人们

活动的名称是你是否赞成全州禁烟，但是其真正目的只是想禁止在对公众开放的地方禁烟。B说在乡村，基本就没有对公众开放的地方。所以那里的人赞同的是全州禁烟，结果在乡村根本就没有任何作用。所以误导。

E说州的法律不影响地方已经禁止的地方，禁止的地方还是禁止的，没有误导嘛。
