Next, please.” The second man is very strong. He says, “I don’t think so. Soldiers use guns. So the soldier is the strongest.” The third man says, “Soldiers use guns, but our general gives orders.

2.The man is younger than the other three, and he’s not strong. He says, “My gun(枪) is the strongest. It can kill anyone.”一个士兵比其他三个都年轻，他也不强壮，他说：“我的枪最强大，它可以杀死任何人。”从而得知最年轻的士兵认为枪最强大，故选C。
