问题 In searching for norms in the sense of authoritative standards of what ought to be, rather than in the sense of what is average and thus can be considered normal, normative ethics aims to______.
选项
答案 D
解析 The sentence defines normative ethics by specifying the sense of the "norms" for which it searches. Since these are authoritative ethical standards, the word that fills the blank must describe the act of establishing those standards. The choice that does this is "dictate." Of the other choices, "predict" suggests that normative ethics merely attempts to describe future behavior rather than establish what guidelines should shape it, while "personalize" suggests a concern with individual circumstances that is not otherwise addressed in the sentence. "Mitigate"(to moderate or alleviate)is likewise incongruent with the rest of the sentence, while "question" does not address normative ethics’ concern with establishing rather than questioning norms. Thus the correct answer is dictate(Choice D).
