问题 Opponents of laws that require automobile drivers and passengers to wear seat belts argue that in a free society people have the right to take risks as long as the people do not harm others as a result of taking the risks. As a result, they conclude that it should be each person’ s decision whether or not to wear a seat belt. Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the conclusion drawn above?
选项 A、Many new cars are built with seat belts that automatically fasten when someone sits in the front seat.
B、Automobile insurance rates for all automobile owners are higher because of the need to pay for the increased injuries or deaths of people not wearing seat belts.
C、Passengers in airplanes are required to wear seat belts during takeoffs and landings.
D、The rate of automobile fatalities in states that do not have mandatory seat-belt laws is greater than the rate of fatalities in states that do have such laws.
E、In automobile accidents, a greater number of passengers who do not wear seat belts are injured than are passengers who do wear seat belts.
答案 B
解析 段落推理为：人们有权力冒受伤的风险，只要他们不因此伤害其他人。如果能够证明，如(B)表明，这个决定的确伤害了其他人，这个原则不能使个人有决定是否系上安全带的权力是合理的，因此，(B)是正确答案。该论述隐含地承认了个人不系安全带承担了风险，因此，(D)和(E)都只是简单地确认了这种承认，而没有削弱该结论。选项(C)引用了一个同争论中的问题相似的要求，但它的存在本身同争论中的问题的合理性没有关系。选项(A)指出该法律在一些情况下可能无关紧要，但它没有评论该项法律的合理性问题。
