Poll: Obama Seen As More Compassionate Than McCain
    Just hours before the start of the second presidential debate, a new national survey suggests that Sen. Barack Obama is making gains among Americans as a compassionate candidate. 【R1】______
    In a new CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll out Tuesday afternoon, 55 percent of registered voters questioned say that Obama "cares more about people like you" than Sen. John McCain, with 35 percent saying McCain cares more than Obama. 【R2】______
    "The all-time champion of town-hall debates was Bill Clinton because he was able to connect with the audience members so well," said CNN polling director Keating Holland. "Voters nationwide seem to feel some connection with Obama.【R3】______John McCain has a pretty good track record at town halls, and it’s possible that he will be the one who looks more compassionate."
    Obama also appears to be building a lead as the candidate with the clearer plan to solve the country’s problems. He has a 15-point lead over McCain on that question in the poll, 48 percent to 33 percent. 【R4】______
    Obama is also making gains on being a strong and decisive leader. A 19-point McCain advantage early last month has now shrunk to a 5-point lead. 【R5】______
    "Voters agree with McCain that things are going well for the U.S. in Iraq. That’s a switch since April, when we last asked that question," Holland said. 【R6】______
    Among voters, Obama also leads on who would better handle the economy, 57 percent to 37 percent; a financial crisis, 53 percent to 36 percent; and health care, 60 percent to 33 percent. 【R7】______
    Obama’s favorable rating among those questioned in the poll is 62 percent, down one percentage point from three weeks ago. 【R8】______
A. But on the question of who has the better experience to be president, McCain still has a big lead over his rival, 54 percent to 36 percent.
B. That could be important in the debate in Nashville, which is a town hall-style meeting with the candidates fielding questions from undecided voters in the audience.
C. The question is whether he’ll connect with the people at the debate tonight.
D. That 20-point margin for Obama is up from a 9-point advantage a month ago.
E. McCain’s favorable rating is 54 percent, down three points from three weeks ago.
F. "But voters also agree with Obama that the war was a bad idea — and they haven’t changed their minds on that in almost four years."
G. McCain leads on the issue of terrorism, 54 percent to 44 percent.
H. Last month, McCain had a 2-point advantage over Obama on the topic of having a clearer plan.
【R1】
选项
答案B
解析 前文提到“全国范围内的调查表明，民众普遍认为奥巴马是一个更有同情心的竞选者。”选项B中“That”就是指代这一内容，因此选项B“这一点在纳什维尔的竞选辩论中起着极其重要的作用。”是最佳选项。
