Which of the following is CORRECT about the memorial in Mojave Desert?
U.S. Supreme Court says that a memorial out in the Mojave Desert does not violate the U.S. Constitution. The memorial is a large cross. It was put up in 1934 to honor fallen soldiers. But it’s located in a national park, and some people argue that it’s a religious symbol that goes against the concept of separation of church and state. The cross was boarded up because of the legal battle. Yesterday’s Supreme Court decision was close: 5 to 4. Writing for the majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy said that this cross represents "far more than religion." But in opposition, Justice John Paul Stevens argued the government can’t lawfully endorse a religious symbol as a way to pay tribute to veterans.
选项
A、It was established by fallen soldiers.
B、Its location invokes disagreement.
C、It is a religious symbol.
D、It violates the U.S. Constitution.
答案
B
解析
判断推理题。新闻首先提到美国最高法院认为这座纪念碑没有违反美国宪法,它是为了纪念阵亡战士而建。但由于它建立在国家公园内,有人则认为这座十字架形状的纪念碑是宗教象征,违背了政教分离的原则,所以B项是正确的。
