Explanation:

The idea that democracy can be adapted to suit the needs of each society implies flexibility and variability in its implementation. Option A acknowledges that democracy hasn't always been obvious or consistent worldwide, suggesting room for adaptation. Option B focuses on Athens' experience, Option C on the prevalence of democracy forms, and Option D on the meaning of a term in the past, none of which directly support the adaptability of democracy to different societies as strongly as Option A.

Answer:

A. "It sounds kind of obvious to us, but it hasn't always been like that. And it isn't like that everywhere in the world today."
