问题     Many laws seem to be created for the purpose of protecting people from themselves. Some examples are age limits for off-road vehicles, seat-belt requirements for cars, and wearing a helmet when riding a motorcycle.
    Opponents of these laws feel that their rights are being restricted. If it doesn’t hurt anyone else, why should there be a law? But if they become injured, it can raise insurance rates for everyone.
    Similarly, consider people putting aside money for their retirement. Suppose they work for a fast-growing company, the hot new stock pick. Many employees invest heavily in the stock. The stock price plummets, their savings will disappear. Laws preventing people from having too much company stock in their retirement accounts could protect them from financial disaster.
    It isn’t easy to find the proper balance between individual rights and common good. Some people will think that the new law goes too far, while others will complain that it doesn’t go far enough. Although we may not agree with every law, some minor inconveniences are part of living in our society.
What do the opponents think of such laws as age limits for off-road vehicles?
选项 A、They think these laws can protect them perfectly.
B、They think these laws raise the insurance rates.
C、They think these laws violate their rights.
D、They think these laws are too old.
答案C
解析 事实细节题。第二段第一句中的these laws指代第一段第二句中的age limits for off-road vehicles，seat-belt requirements for cars，and wearing a helmet when riding a motorcycle。结合feel that，their rights are being restricted可知，这些法律的反对者们认为它们限制了自己的权利，故答案为[C]项。
