（ A ）
Thomas Jefferson is a political philosopher， diplomat and the third president of the United States.
Jefferson’s importance as one of the greatest figures in the Nation’s history demanded a memorial site of prominence in the Capital City equal to that occupied by the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. Placing the Jefferson Memorial directly south of the White House achieved this. In the preparation of the plans for the memorial， the architect， John Russell Pope， was clearly influenced by Jefferson’s taste as expressed in his writings and demonstrated by his works. The circular colonnaded structure is an adaptation of the classical style that Jefferson introduced into his country. Rudolph Evans was the sculptor of the bronze statue of Jefferson in the center of the memorial. The memorial was dedicated in 1943 on the 200th anniversary of Jefferson’s birth， four years after President Franklin Roosevelt laid the cornerstone.
