问题 The author’s tone in this passage is ______.
Why does the author discuss forcing everyone to buy the same car or eat the same food?
选项 A、To show that freedom of choice is absolute.
B、To show that the government has interfered too much in the lives of individuals.
C、To hypothesize what would happen if uniforms became compulsory.
D、To predict the way society will be in the next few generations.
答案C
解析 本题问“作者分什么谈到强迫每个人买同样的车和食物?”第二段提到，If all persons were to wear the same clothing，why would anyone strive to be better? It is only a short step from forcing everyone to wear the some  clothing to forcing everyone to drive the same car，have the same type of house，and eat the same types of food.也就是说，强迫每个人穿同样的衣服跟强迫人们开同样的车、住同样的房、吃同样的东西距离只有一小步。作者在此打比喻的用意在于证明假设被强迫穿制服后，不是没有可能在其他方面也强迫人人一致。故[C]“为了假设必须强制穿制服时将会发生的情形”正确。[A]“为了表明选择的自由是绝对的”。文中作者的这个比喻是为了解释人应该有选择的自由而不是夸大选择的绝对性，本项过于绝对。[B]“为了证明政府对个人的生活干预过多”。本文全文在讨论制服的问题，并未涉及政府的职能，所以这种说法偏离了文章中心。[D]“为了预言几代人之后的社会的状况”。本文在词论穿制服的优缺点，所以比喻的目的是为自己做例证，这一项也不符合。
