问题 单项选择题

任何在美国以外生产的美国国旗应当被禁止进口,因为一些国外制造者将一些图像附加在美国国旗上,并且相对免遭惩罚地出售这类产品。另一方面,美国国旗制造者却要面对违反美国国旗法规的惩罚。
下面哪个是对上面论述的最好批评

A.论述重复其结论而不是提供因果关系给它。
B.论述在国外制造商和美国制造商之间做了一个不相关的区别。
C.给予禁止的原因是反对而不是支持结论。
D.给予禁止的原因没有解释为什么在美国国旗上附加形象是触犯法律性的。
E.给予禁止的原因仅仅应用于制造商的一部分,他们的国旗应当禁止,没有必要对所有的都禁止。

答案

参考答案:E

解析:论证的结论是“任何在美国以外生产的美国国旗应当被禁止进口”,理由是“一些国外制造者将一些图像附加在美国国旗上”,显然,从“一些国外生产商这样做”不能推广到“全部必须禁止”。

Some people will do just about anything to save money. And I am one of them. Take my family’s last vacation for example. It was my six-year-old son’s winter break from school, and we were heading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had a meeting in New York, So I had to get back. But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. So I took off for home.

The next day my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged一okay, ordered一them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?

Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.

I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a lot of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in. I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted(小气的) when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.
