问题 单项选择题

向一群不同年龄的小孩讲述人们做坏事的故事,其中有一些人是故意做的坏事,而一些人是无意的。当被问及对那些做坏事的人如何进行惩罚时,年纪小一些的孩子与年纪大一些的孩子不同,提出的惩罚方式没有因为这种坏事是有意做的而与无意做的有所不同。因此,年纪小一些的孩子不认为人们的意愿与惩罚方式有联系。
以下哪项如果是正确的,将最严重地削弱以上论述

A.在理解这些故事时,听者必须借助于一些人类心理中相对成熟的心智来区分坏事是有意造成的还是无意造成的。

B.年纪小一些的孩子提出的惩罚方式根据故事中的人做的坏事的严重程度不同而不同。

C.年纪小一些的孩子们和年纪大一些的孩子们一样容易无意中做坏事。

D.年纪大一些的孩子提出的惩罚方式与成人们在类似试验中提出的惩罚方式非常相似。

答案

参考答案:A

解析: 题干根据年纪小一些的孩子提出的惩罚方式没有因为这种坏事是有意做的还是无意做的而不同,得出结论:年纪小一些的孩子不认为人们的意愿与惩罚方式有联系。选项A指出,年纪小些的孩子可能不能区分坏事是否是有意造成的。那么,即使这些年纪小些的孩子确实认为人们的意愿与惩罚方式有关,他们也不具备提出这个标准的前提。这就削弱了结论。
