问题 It is true that it is against international law to sell plutoni-um to countries that do not yet have nuclear weapons. But if United States companies do not do so, companies in other countries will. Which of the following is most like the argument above in its logical structure?

选项 A、It is true that it is against the police department’s policy to negotiate with kidnappers. But if the police want to prevent loss of life, they must negotiate in some cases.
B、It is true that it is illegal to refuse to register for military service. But there is a long tradition in the United States of conscientious objection to serving in the armed forces.
C、It is true that it is illegal for a government official to participate in a transaction in which there is an apparent conflict of interest. But if the facts are examined carefully, it will clearly be seen that there was no actual conflict of interest in the defendant’s case.
D、It is true that it is against the law to burglarize People’s homes. But someone else certainly would have burglarized that house if the defendant had not done so first.
E、It is true that company policy forbids supervisors to fire employees without two written warnings. But there have been many supervisors who have disobeyed this policy.

答案D

解析 短文中的论述承认某一行为违反了法律,但它通过预先假定总会有人违反这项法律为该行为提供了一个借口,只有选项(D)具有相同的特征,因此是正确答案;在选项(A)中,为违反一项政策提出了一个借口,但是,同短文和选项(D)不同,没有预先假定该政策总会被违反;相似地,选项(B)和(E)都在没有预先假定违法活动总会发生的情况下,指出发生了违法行为。选项(C)描述了一个案例,在该案例中提到的法律是不适用的。
