(D) It is ethical in general to report known facts but unethical to make a report in a situation of censorship if relevant facts have been deleted by the censor unless the recipient of the report is warned that censorship existed
　(E) Although it is ethical in general to report known facts it is unethical to make a report from which a censor has deleted relevant facts unless the recipient of the report is warned that there was censorship and the reported facts do not by themselves give a misleading impression.

　24. A birth is more like to be difficult when the mother is over the age of 40 than when she is younger. Regardless of the mother's age, a person whose birth was difficult is more likely to be ambidextrous than is a person whose birth was not difficult. Since other causes of ambidexterity are not related to the mother's age, there must be more ambidextrous people who were born to women over 40 than there are ambidextrous people who were born to younger women.

　The argument is most vulnerable to which one of the following criticisms?

　(A) It assumes what it sets out to establish
　(B) It overlooks the possibility that fewer children are born to women over 40 than to women under 40
　(C) It fails to specify what percentage of people in the population as a whole are ambldextrous.
　(D) It does not state how old a child must be before its handedness can be determined
　(E) It neglects to explain how difficulties during birth can result in a child's ambioexterity
　
Questions 25-26

　The government has no right to tax earnings from labor. Taxation of this kind requires the laborer to devote a certain percentage of hours worked to earning money for the government. Thus, such taxation forces the laborer to work, in part, for another's purpose. Since involuntary servitude can be defined as forced work for another's purpose, just as-involuntary servitude is pernicious, so is taxing earnings from labor.

　25. The argument uses which one of the following argumentative techniques?

　(A) deriving a general principle about the rights of individuals from a judgment concerning the obligations of governments
　(B) inferring what will be time case merely from a description of what once was the case
　(C) inferring that since two institutions are similar in one respect they are similar in another respect
　(D) siting the authority of an economic theory in order to justify a moral principle
　(E) presupposing the inevitability of a hierarchical class system in order to oppose a given economic practice

　26. Which one of the following is a error of reasoning committed by the argument?

　(A) It ignores a difference in how the idea of forced work for another's purpose applies to the two cases.
　(B) It does not take into account the fact that labor is taxed at different rates depending on income.
　(C) It mistakenly assumes that all work is taxed
　(D) It ignores the fact that the government also taxes income from investment
　(E) It treats definitions as if they were matters of subjective opinion rather than objective facts about language.
