问题 单项选择题

(2008年)  西方法律格言说:“法律不强人所难”。关于这句格言涵义的阐释,下列哪一选项是正确的?

A.凡是人能够做到的,都是法律所要求的

B.对人所不知晓的事项,法律不得规定为义务

C.根据法律规定,人对不能预见的事项,不承担过错责任

D.天灾是人所不能控制的,也不是法律加以调整的事项

答案

参考答案:C

解析:“法律不强人所难”,即不能对自己无法预见的事情承担责任。   选项A说法错误,“人能够做到的”中的人,可能是“圣人”,也可能是“小人”,不能以“圣人”的道德情操要求所有人,也不能以“小人”的标准去定分止争。另外,法律的范围毕竟是有限的,道德调整的范围不一定都要有法律来规范。   选项B说法错误,义务具有强制履行性,不能以不知晓而拒绝履行。   选项D说法错误,法律明确规定“天灾”是不可抗力,是法律调整的事项。

     The rumors had been spreading for months but it still came as a shock when the hospital would be

closing. It had served this poor neighborhood for nearly 100 years but it would close because of the health care crisis.

     The day after the announcement co-workers found out that pretzels(椒盐饼干) had been eliminated.

Soft pretzels are the lifeblood of this city. So losing access to soft pretzels is no small matter.

     A week later, I decided to cheer up my co-workers by picking up some soft pretzels at a local store.

I arrived just as it opened so I was the only customer. But I only had $6 in my wallet. I was working inside a large office at the hospital and knew I'd need more than the half dozen pretzels my six dollars would buy. A man's voice interrupted my thoughts. "Can I help you?"

     I said, "I only have $6. I'm not sure how many pretzels I need. You see, I work at a hospital and it's

closing and they stopped selling pretzels." The man's smile disappeared. "What hospital?" "Oh,

Northeastern Hospital."

     The guy looked deeply shocked. "I used to sell medical supplies and that was one of my hospitals."

Then he turned around and grabbed a box of 25 pretzels and slid them across the counter.

     I was surprised by his generosity and started to reach for my wallet, "Oh I can pay. Please let me …

The guy smiled, "Just tell them Joe Sullivan said to do something nice for someone else."

     And so that day everyone in medical records was treated to a soft pretzel. Word spread fast as people came asking, "Is it really true?" It was as if I'd carried in a box of gold. It mattered to them that a stranger

cared.
