单选题 What are European views on the death penalty, according to the authors?

A、 That it is uncivilised and should be stopped everywhere because it infringes people's freedoms.
B、 That America annoys people by insisting on keeping the death penalty.
C、 That Americans and Europeans define human-rights in different ways.
D、 That nearly two thirds of people disagree.

【正确答案】 A

【答案解析】本题问的是欧洲人对死刑的看法，并未涉及与美国人的比较。所以答案B和C不对。从第二段第一句“when nearly all other developed democracies have given it up, and now view it as barbaric”，可知欧洲国家的人民认为死刑是野蛮的，应该废弃。所以A正确。
