Top officials in city, state and the federal governments are elected to office by the people. They run for office every two or four years and elections are held in the first week of November.
People who run for elections are called politicians. Many of them are lawyers. Successful politicians are often famous and important people in their communities. Young lawyers who are interested in politics, often join political clubs when they graduate from law schools. As club members, they help older politicians get elected. The real purpose is when they have had enough experience and support, they run for office themselves.
Before elections, political candidates always have a tight schedule. They have frequent meetings with their supporters and discuss details about their elections. But most of their time is spent on campaigning, shaking hands and making speeches to the public. There are different groups of voters that politicians try to win support from. Most large cities have black and Spanish-speaking communities who elect powerful politicians. Some politicians appeal to businessmen while others appeal to laborers. Many politicians run for office by taking sides on important issues, such as balancing government budget, getting equal rights for women, fighting corruption and creating job opportunities. Once politicians win elections, their futures depend on how well they do their jobs and how well the people hear of the work they are doing.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.
23. Why do young lawyers join political clubs after graduation?
24. How do political candidates spend most of their time before elections?
25. What does a politician’s future depend on after he wins the elections?
选项
A、Having frequent meetings with their supporters.
B、Winning public support by making speeches.
C、Balancing government budget.
D、Fighting corruption.
答案
B
解析
短文中用转折表述提到But most of their time is spent on campaigning….making speeches to the public….that politicians try to win support from,即候选人大部分时间都在参加政治活动、演讲,获取各种社会团体的支持,故答案为B)。But转折处为常考点,其后的内容通常为答案所在。
