游客2024-01-13  13

问题 Current legislation that requires designated sections for smokers and nonsmokers on the premises of privately owned businesses is an intrusion into the private sector that cannot be justified. The fact that studies indicate that nonsmokers might be harmed by inhaling the smoke from others’ cigarettes is not the main issue. Rather, the main issue concerns the government’s violation of the right of private businesses to determine their own policies and rules. Which one of the following is a principle that, if accepted, could enable the conclusion to be properly drawn?

选项 A、Government intrusion into the policies and rules of private businesses is justified only when individuals might be harmed.
B、The right of individuals to breathe safe air supersedes the right of businesses to be free from government intrusion.
C、The right of businesses to self-determination overrides whatever right or duty the government may have to protect the individual.
D、It is the duty of private businesses to protect employees from harm in the workplace.
E、Where the rights of businesses and the duty of government conflict, the main issue is finding a successful compromise.

答案 C

解析 本题的逻辑关系比较简单,由题中的论述可知,政府侵犯私营企业决定它们自己的政策和法规的权利的问题要比抽烟者可能会因吸收其他抽烟者的烟味而受害的问题更严重,由此可推知企业的独自裁决权高于政府必须保护个人的一切权利和义务是本题的结论成立的前提条件。所以(C)是正确答案;(A)和(B)对本题的结论构成反对;(D)和(E)与本题的结论无关。
