2018年3月16日的SAT阅读每日一练如下:
I have already observed that, from their origin, thesovereignty of the people
was the fundamentalprinciple of the greater number of British colonies
inAmerica.
At the present day the principle of the sovereignty of the people has
acquired, in the UnitedStates, all the practical development which the
imagination can conceive. It isunencumbered by those fictions which have been
thrown over it in other countries, and itappears in every possible form
according to the exigency of the occasion. Sometimes the lawsare made by the
people in a body, as at Athens; and sometimes its representatives, chosen
byuniversal suffrage, transact business in its name, and almost under its
immediate control.
In some countries a power exists which, though it is in a degree foreign to
the social body, directs it, and forces it to pursue a certain track. In others
the ruling force is divided, beingpartly within and partly without the ranks of
the people. But nothing of the kind is to be seen inthe United States; there
society governs itself for itself. All power centres in its bosom; andscarcely
an individual is to be meet with who would venture to conceive, or, still less,
toexpress, the idea of seeking it elsewhere. The nation participates in the
making of its law by thechoice of its legistlators, and in the execution of them
by the choice of the agents of theexecutive government; it may almost be said to
govern itself, so feeble and so restricted isthe share left to the
administration, so little do the authorities forget their popular origin andthe
power from which they emanate.
The underlined word "execution" most nearly means ___
带下划线的单词“执行”最接近的意思是___
A.production.
B.extermination.
C.presentation.
D.enforcement.
正确答案:D
相关解析:
Choice D is the best answer. In this context, "execution" most nearly means
"enforcement," orthe act of carrying something out. When Tocquevillesays that
people participate in the making andexecution of laws by appointing officials,
he means taht people help to create laws and seethat those laws are carried
out.
