The Ordinance of 1784 is most significant historically because it embodied the principle that new states should be formed from the western region and admitted to the Union on an equal basis with the original commonwealths. This principle, which underlay the whole later development of the continental United States, was generally accepted by this time and cannot be properly credited to any single man. Thomas Jefferson had presented precisely this idea to his own state of Virginia before the Declaration of Independence, however, and if he did not originate it he was certainly one of those who held it first. It had been basic in his own thinking about the future of the Republic throughout the struggle for independence. He had no desire to break from the British Empire simply to establish an American one--in which the newer region should be subsidiary and tributary to the old. What he dreamed of was an expanding union of self-governing commonwealths, joined as a group of peers.
According to the passage, one of Thomas Jefferson’s political goals was to ______.
选项
A、maintain strong ties with the British Empire
B、fight for more territory for his country
C、found the Republican party
D、guarantee the status of new states
答案
D
解析
文章末句“What he dreamed of was an expanding union of self-governing commonwealths, joined as a group of peers”提到,Thomas Jefferson的政治目标是建立一个广泛的、平等的自制联邦。可见维护平等才是他的目的,因此选D。
