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.
错选了E,misleading要找一个解释“认为的”和“实际的”不一致的选项。E选项提到了“认为的”和“实际的”,但二者可以不冲突所以不能选;

问misleading的地方就是:人们“认为”的效果——推广原有政策,和“实际”的结果——部分场所禁烟,之间是不一致的。在选项所述的5种情况下,哪一种将在新政实施后,导致两者(人们认为的效果,和实际的结果)之间最不一致的结果呢?
A. 健康险涨价,非烟民也受到影响。
B. 偏远地区,[新政]能影响到的场所不多。
C. [新政]会替代[力度更强的原有政策]。
D. 社会舆论支持禁烟。
E. [新政]并不影响[在高火险隐患场所禁烟的原有政策]。
