问题 During the drafting of the Declaration of Independence and the drafting of the Constitution, the issue of Negro slavery was______.

选项 A、not raised
B、raised but voted down
C、bitterly debated
D、raised but, because of strong southern opposition, was put aside for greater objective

答案D

解析 黑奴的存在违背了美国《独立宣言》所主张的人人生而平等的思想。实际上,早和托马斯.杰斐逊起草《独立宣言》的时候就提出过废除黑奴制度的建议,后来在起草《宪法》和《人权法案》的时候也都提出来讨论过,但是由于南方种植园主的强烈反对,该提议被暂时搁置。直到19世纪中叶,由于北方工业的迅速发展,黑奴制度成为南北矛盾的核心,废除黑奴制度才真正被提上日程,也成为后来的南北战争的焦点。
