2025 civics test · Question 31 of 128 · System of Government
Who does a U.S. senator represent?
In Chinese 美国联邦参议员代表谁？
Official answers
- Citizens of their state本州的公民
- People of their state本州的人民
Any one of these answers is accepted unless the question asks for more than one.
Why this is the answer
A U.S. senator represents all the people of their state, not just one district. That is different from a representative in the House, who represents the people of one congressional district. Since each state has two senators, both represent the entire state.
