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 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?
Health costs associated with smoking cause health insurance premiums to rise for everyone and so affect nonsmokers.
In rural areas of the state, there are relatively few retail establishments and government offices that are open to the public.
The state law would supersede the local antismoking ordinances, which contain stronger bans than the state law does.
There is considerable sentiment among voters in most areas of the state for restriction of smoking.
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.
民众认为是地方法的拓展:地方法的禁烟强 请愿 变成statewide
误导: 洲际法 会取代地方法 且洲际法禁止范围不如地方法
民众被骗了
文章:有一个请愿,就像民众问了一个问题”你愿意参与设立一个州级的禁烟令“吗?这个禁烟令涉及了XXX
问题:什么背景下,使得这个请愿实际上是对民众会认为这个请愿是对地方禁烟令的延申(也就是比本地的还要严格)的误导。
C:实际上最后成型的州级禁烟令会取代本地禁烟令,而地方禁烟令实际上要比州级的更严格。
这就直接点名事与愿违了。所以明显是误导人民群众。
但如果实际操作的时候是地方法律包含更多的restriction,那么就会和这些voter的想法有出入
原文:ask only, "Do you want to sign a petition for 【statewide 】smoking restriction?"-- 你愿意参与设立一个州级的禁烟令
题目:misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the 【local】 ordinances statewide? 误导民众认为这个请愿是对地方禁烟令的延申(也就是比本地的还要严格)
选项C:The 【state law】 would supersede取代 the 【local antismoking ordinances】, which contain stronger bans than the state law does.
实际上最后成型的州级禁烟令会取代本地禁烟令,而本地禁烟令 实际上要比 州级禁烟令 更严格。
即使很少,但还是可以起到extension的效果,不选
C:The state law would supersede the local antismoking ordinances, which contain stronger bans than the state law does.
直接说明了变成洲际之后,反而不如当地法,因此达不到extension效果,可选
答案c:州立法会取代地方法,但地方法案更严格。这个明显就是个误导
问题:什么情况下会误导投票者,认为这是地方法案的扩展?
州级法律会取代地方法律
在选择的时候这道题在比较city law和state law,所以答案中肯定会出现它们的不同之处
C选项:sl代替了cl,并且cl的效力更强(所以用了sl,对于当地人来说是一种误导)
以下哪一项会让志愿者认为proposal是已经存在的当地ordinance的延展:
choice c, 最近的州立法案会取代当地法规
而petition——宽松(因为实际上只要求某些特定场合禁烟)
voter们认为:我以为你们这些campaign workers是 想把当地的严法推广到全州来执行呢!
题目问:以下哪种情况如果为真,那些签名的人就被误导了?
C选项是说,如果当地禁烟令更严苛,而请愿书变为statewide law的话,会使得当地的禁烟令变宽松。voter们原本以为可以将当地的严苛禁烟令推广到全州,那在C选项这个背景下,结果就不会是他们想的那样。

ps, 读懂题干!误导一部分人,那么被误导的人所持有的想法,就是和该做法的目相违背的。
C选项state将会取代local;直接攻击不能全州化
B选项说明对state某些地方没有效果
这个题的关键就是要注意到state 和local的这个对比情形
这个请愿(petition)在什么时候(which of the following circumstances)会误导那些人(认为这个proposal是extend当前的地方法律的人)
Which of the following circumstances would make the petition as circulated misleading to voters who understand the proposal as extending the local ordinances statewide? 以下哪种情形会使上述的petition对于voter(将这个提议理解为将地方法规推广至全州的voter)具有误导性?
既然是具有误导性,那么这种情形必然与voter的理解有出入--》C选项,州法会取代地方法规
