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.
类比推理:
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。
