GWD-9-Q30: Criminologist: Some legislators advocate mandating a sentence of life in prison for anyone who, having twice served sentences for serious crimes, is subsequently convicted of a third serious crime. These legislators argue that such a policy would reduce crime dramatically, since it would take people with a proven tendency to commit crimes off the streets permanently. What this reasoning overlooks, however, is that people old enough to have served two prison sentences for serious crimes rarely commit more than one subsequent crime. Filling our prisons with such individuals would have exactly the opposite of the desired effect, since it would limit our ability to incarcerate younger criminals, who commit a far greater proportion of serious crimes.

In the argument as a whole, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

A. The first is a conclusion that the argument as a whole seeks to refute; the second is a claim that has been advanced in support of that conclusion.

B. The first is a conclusion that the argument as a whole seeks to refute; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.

C. The first is the main conclusion of the argument; the second is an objection that has been raised against that conclusion.

D. The first is the main conclusion of the argument; the second is a prediction made on the basis of that conclusion.

E. The first is a generalization about the likely effect of a policy under consideration in the argument; the second points out a group of exceptional cases to which that generalization does not apply.

答案选b,没有问题。

我试着翻译的,凑合看吧. 刑事学者:一些立法者认为应该让那些两次犯重罪,随后又犯重罪的罪犯终身监禁. 这些立法者认为这个政策会剧烈减少犯罪,因为这可以使那些证明可能犯罪的人永远地远离街市.然而,这个推理忽略了那些在监狱待了两期重判的家伙已经老朽到很少能再次犯罪. 让这些罪犯充斥在监狱与我我们的愿望相反, 因为这样监禁年轻的罪犯的能力会收到限制, 这些年轻的罪犯占严重犯罪的大比例.
