参考答案A

解析:
M: Hi, Leslie! Did you go to the Kent Center to vote last week?
W: Of course．I'd feel guilty if I didn't exercise my right to vote．
M: (9) Yes, but voting in the U．K．is optional--so you don't have to do it, whereas in some countries voting is compulsory．If you were in Australia, where the government passed a law that made voting compulsory,you would have had to pay a fine of $ 20 for not voting.
W: And that's because the Australian government believes that voting is a duty and not just a right．Do you think we should also introduce this kind of law in the U．K．?
M: Well, I'm quite cautious about this, because it could bring about this sort of slapdash attitude towards politics.
W: Oh, sorry．(10-1) What does "slapdash attitude" mean?
M: ( 10-2 ) It means doing something qulcldy and carelessly．Young people might just pick a political party out of a hat--which means to choose randomly--rather than making an informed choice.
W: So some people think that politicians need to improve political education．
M: So compulsory voting would mean a responsibility for the politicians, too．
W: That's right．They need to engage and educate young people．Otherwise reluctant voters may deliberately spoil--or waste--their votes.
M: The govenunent could also include a "none of the above" option on the ballot paper．W: Can you explain a bit more about that, Rob?
M: ( 11 ) Well, it means you tick this option if you don't want to vote for any of the listed political parties．
W: An interesting idea.
According to the man, in which country is voting compulsory? A．
