Question: 80-83 are based on
the following passage.
The Future of Warfare
The latest revolution in warfare is based on the application of
information technology to weapons. It involves gathering huge amounts of data;
processing them so that relevant information is displayed on a screen; and then
destroying targets, at much greater distance and with much greater accuracy than
was previously possible. These changes favor attacks rather than defense: large,
easy-to-hit objects—whether military bases, ship, tanks or concentration of
troops—are increasingly vulnerable to weapons such as cruise missiles steered by
satellite beams. All this is bad news for America's potential
foes. Russia, a once and perhaps future rival, has neither the money nor the
know-how to imitate the latest American advances. Other countries with more cash
to spare aspire to master enough of the new technology to challenge American
power locally. China, for instance, is plainly flexing its muscles in Asia. Iran
wants to develop cruise missiles to allow it to keep other countries' ships away
from the Gulf. But the American's mastery of the new warfare will make it
increasingly foolish to make them on a high-intensity shooting war, as Saddam
Hussein did. So if anyone wants to have a go at Uncle Sam, he will probably do
so by other methods, such as ballistic missiles, biological weapons or
terrorism. The revolution also has implications for America's
friends. By increasing American might, it may encourage the country's
unilateralist element to think it can win wars without having to work with
troublesome partners. In any event, working with allies will probably become
more bothersome: their low-tech armies may be incapable of plugging into
American information networks. Moreover, given the increasing vulnerability of
military bases to missile attack, America may wish to withdraw its soldiers from
Europe and Asia. When necessary, I will be able to strike its enemies with
long-range weapons and more intervention forces.

单选题Government is a basic means of ordering human relations.
41
its citizens, government generally
42
certain well-organized functions and services. It regulates the price, quality, and quantity of certain goods and services. It acts to improve the health of the economy and the level of employment. It
43
an internal system of justice as an alternative
44
the use of force in the settlement of disputes—a system which not only protects the individual from arbitrary or hostile actions on the part of his fellow citizens,
45
from the infringement of his basic rights by other governmental elements. It provides a system of defense
46
attack by other countries. It takes a sizable part of the income of individuals and applies it
47
. Obviously, in
48
these tremendously significant activities, government
49
an insistent force on the life of every individual; and each citizen will be helped or hindered depending upon the
50
to which he understands the nature of governmental power.
Government, however, is the only one among many forms of social organization
51
considerable influence and claims
52
people. Particularly important
53
organizations are the corporation, the trade union, the church or synagogue, the club, the trade association, and the family.
54
, of course, there remain those aspects of life which are unassailably personal and individual and which cannot be dealt with by the mechanisms of society.
Government is
55
in every way superior to the other groups or organizations. It has,
56
, certain characteristics different from them. One is universality, in that all citizens belong. Another is that the government has a near monopoly
57
the legitimate application of force for carrying out its will.
58
, government"s role in America is perhaps best indicated in the Preamble to our Constitution. Our
59
fathers there gave it the challenge to "form a more perfect Union, establish justice,
60
domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity..." Every American citizen, either through action or apathy, is involved in this great task.
