问题    One of the political issues that is heard a lot about in the States lately is campaign(竞选)finance reform. The people who are【C1】______for reform usually want the government to pay for campaigns or limit the amount of money that candidates and their【C2】______can spend.
   One reason that reform is called for is that it costs so much to compete for political office. Candidates have to spend a great deal of time and effort【C3】______money. The incumbents(those already in office)have less time to do chief jobs since they must【C4】______so many money raising events. Another reason is the fear that candidates will be owned or controlled by the "special interest groups" that give money to their campaigns. Sometimes this certainly seems to be the【C5】______
   On the other side are those who say that it doesn’t mean it’s really【C6】______just because you call something "reform". They argue that the right to freedom of speech is【C7】______if the government can limit anyone’s ability to get his or her message out to the people.
   If one person or a group of people want to tell the【C8】______what they think about an issue or candidate, they have to buy【C9】______on TV, radio, and in newspapers and magazines. They might want to put up advertisements along highways and on websites. All this costs a lot of【C10】______. [br] 【C6】
选项 A、worse
B、better
C、easier
D、harder
答案 B
解析 本题考查对上下文意思的理解。这一段开头的on the other side就表明了是与前文相反的观点，前面讲提倡改革，这里的观点就应该是与此相对的。本句句意为：你称呼某些东西为改革，而改革未必就是好的。
