问题     One of the political issues that is heard a lot about in the States lately is campaign(竞选)finance reform(改革). The people who are  【B1】  for reform usually want the  【B2】  to pay for campaigns and/or limit the amount of money that candidates(候选人)and their  【B3】  can spend.
    One reason that reform is called for is that it costs so much to  【B4】  for political office. Candidates have to spend a great deal of time and effort  【B5】  money. The incumbents (those already in office) have less time to do thief jobs since they must  【B6】  so many money raising events.
    Another  【B7】  is the fear that candidates will be owned or  【B8】  by the "special interest groups" that give money to their campaigns. Sometimes this certainly seems to be the  【B9】  .
    On the  【B10】  side are those who say that it doesn’t mean it’s really  【B11】  just because you call something "reform". They argue that the right to freedom of speech is  【B12】  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  【B13】  what they think about an issue or candidate, they have to buy  【B14】  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  【B15】  
    Those against laws that control or limit spending say that you don’t really have freedom of  【B16】   or freedom of the press if you can’t get your message out. They say the government should never be able to control  【B17】  discussions. They believe that this is most important when the voters are about to make  【B18】  .
    What do you think about this  【B19】  Listen to what the candidates for national office have to say. Which candidates  【B20】  the most sense to you?
选项 A、waiting
B、calling
C、standing
D、preparing
