Every nation has a set of rules either written or unwritten, which determines how people act with each other. Formal written rules are often laws and they control how we drive operate a business, or run a government. Individuals who disobey laws may be fined or put in jail.
Because illegal behavior generally harms other individuals or societies at large. Our court system must punish people who don’t obey these formal rules.
Informal rules, often called "manners", describe correct and incorrect behavior in such situations as eating in a restaurant, going on a date, or working in an office. If one is impolite or misbehaves in these situations, other people often consider offender insensitive. And although we can strongly disagree to such misconduct, we can no legally punish someone for simply being inconsiderate or unpleasant.
Neither laws nor manners are inflexible; both changes as society develops. For example, in the early twentieth century, the selling of strong spirits was forbidden. This law, however, had to be changed because the government found it impossible to force people to drink only soft drinks. More recently, many people who were dissatisfied with the unequals between the rights of men and women worked to pass the equal rights law, as women became more independent and took on new roles, a new law was considered necessary to reflect that change.
选项
A、put to death
B、put on afire
C、doing fine
D、put into prison
答案
D
解析
细节题。文章第一段第三句“Individuals who disobey laws may be fined or put in jail because illegal behavior generally harms other individuals or societies at large”清晰地陈述了谁不遵守法律将会被罚款或关进监狱。故D为正确答案。C为强干扰项,C中的fine非“罚款”之意。
