单项选择题
Referring to the elderly as summarized in the passage, we can assume that they are ______.
A．great in number and most will vote
B．great in number but few tend to vote
C．few in number and few tend to vote
D．few in number but most will vote
答案
参考答案：B
解析：[分析] 推断题型。 根据第三段最后一句话可知政府退出新法的目的是为竞选做准备，需要处方药的是老年人，所以可推知老年人的数量很多。根据文章最后一句中的the elderly, a group that votes in disproportionate numbers可知投票的老年人很少。
