Why does the author think that a six-year presidency is antidemocratic?
A.It would result in a President less responsive to the will of the people.
B.It would leave no way of removing an unpopular President from power.
C.It would undermine time-tested electoral procedures.
D.It would give an unfair advantage to one portion of the electorate.
参考答案
正确答案:A
解析:本题的答案可以在第三段、第四段和第五段中找到线索。三四两段分析了为什么说六年总统任期是对民主的践踏,尤其是第三段第四句中有“It assumes that the less responsive a President is to popular desires and needs,the better President he or she will be.”这样一句,然后第五段第三句“It is that the President's duty is not to ignore and override popular concerns but to acknowledge and heed them.”指出什么是总统的职责所在,综合这些内容可以看出,作者认为六年任期可能导致总统无视民意。因此,只有A符合题意。
