问题 The government should enact a bill that would prohibit the sale and consumption of alcohol on commuter trains. Recently, the state, exercising its legitimate authority, passed a law to protect the health of commuters by prohibiting smoking on the commuter line. When intoxicated riders get off the train, get in their cars, and drive, the public is exposed to at least as much danger as are nonsmoking rail passengers who are forced to inhale cigarette smoke. In arguing that alcohol consumption on commuter trains should be banned, the author relies on
选项 A、the fact that drinking alcohol is dangerous to one’ s health.
B、the principle that people need to be protected from their own actions.
C、the use of emotionally charged descriptions of smoking and drinking alcohol.
D、the reader’s sympathy for the problems of commuters.
E、a comparison between the effects of smoking and the effects of drinking alcohol.
答案E
解析 本题首先提出论点，在通勤火车上销售和饮用酒精饮料的行为应当被法律禁止，接着举了一个法律上已禁止在通勤火车上抽烟的例子，然后说明两者对公众造成的危害或带来的危险具有相似性，由此得出结论，当一种行为一smoking被禁时，另一种行为一sale and consumption of alcohol也应当被禁止。因此本题是通过抽烟对他人的影响与喝酒精饮料对他人的影响的比较来证明它的论点的，所以选项(E)是正确答案；(A)、(B)、(C)和(D)都不能从题义中得出，所以均为错误选项。
