问题 Which of the following best completes the passage below? "Government" does not exist as an independent entity defining policy. Instead there exists a group of democratically elected pragmatists sensitive to the electorate, who establish policies that will result in their own reelection. Therefore, if public policy is hostile to, say, environmental concerns, it is not because of governmental perversity but because elected officials believe that
选项 A、environmentalists would be extremely difficult to satisfy with any policy, however environmentally sound.
B、environmental concerns are being accommodated as well as public funds permit.
C、the public is overly anxious about environmental deterioration.
D、the majority of voters vote for certain politicians because of those politicians idiosyncratic positions on policy issues.
E、the majority of voters do not strongly wish for a different policy.
答案 K
解析 本题作为“完成段落”题型，重点要把握最后要补充的这一句话和段落前边的论述是什么关系——是解释前面所述，还是从前面得出结论，并且补充的这一句话要与段落前半部分有关，而段落前半部分告诉我们the democratically elected pragmatists are sensitive to the electorate，即当选官员受选民影响决定，那么补充的内容应与此吻合。(E)中的voters = electorate, strongly wish有perversity的意思，并且(E)指出是因为大多数选民并不希望有不同的政策而并非政府刚愎自用，所以(E)正确；(A)、(B)、(C)与“选民”无关，为无关答案；(D)只说明选民为什么选某些政治家，但我们讨论的是政策决定的问题，所以(D)起不了任何作用。
