    D. make representatives more responsive to public opinion

    Explanation:

    "The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States, and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature."

    When the Framers wrote the Constitution, they knew that during that moment, the English parliament elections and meetings varied from 3 to 7 year terms, this was called the Long Parliament, this was the main reason for the republican military leader Oliver Cromwell to dismiss parliament in 1653, because he believed that it grew "intolerably odious to the whole nation".

    For this reason, the Framers established two-year terms for members of the House of Representatives, so they could not be detached from their constituencies and public opinions.
