[解题思路]
文章第五段第二句话中提到“The three-fifths formula handed Jefferson his narrow victory in the presidential election of 1800 by inflating the votes of the southern states in the Electoral College”(正是由于这个五分之三公式扩大了选举团中南方州的选票,从而帮助杰弗逊在1800年的总统选举中险胜),可见杰弗逊是从奴隶制中获益的,因此A为正确选项。B和D选项在文章中没有具体涉及。C选项对应于文章第四段第一句话“For one thing, the South could not afford to part with its slaves. Owning slaves was “like having a large bank account,””(一方面,南方的各个州无法承担废除奴隶制带来的损失。拥有奴隶“就像拥有一张数额巨大的银行存折”),原文只是将拥有奴隶比作拥有很多银行存款,并不是奴隶主们真正有很多存款,因此该选项也是错误的。
