Model Answer

(B) Democracy can only create conditions; citizens must use those conditions to achieve goals.

This implies democracy is "just a form of government" — it creates conditions for achieving goals, but citizens must take advantage of those conditions themselves.

Explanation

The passage explicitly states: "democracy is just a form of government. It can only create conditions for achieving something. The citizens have to take advantage of those conditions and achieve those goals." Option B directly reflects this. Options A, C, and D are either contradicted by the text or distort its meaning. Examiners expect you to identify the option that matches the textbook language most closely.
