单选题Government is not made in virtue of natural rights．which may and do exist in total independence of it, and exist in much greater clearness, and in a much greater degree of abstract perfection；but their abstract perfection is their practical defect．By having a right to everything, men want everything．Government is a contrivance of human wisdom to provide for human wants．Men have a right that these wants should be provided for by this wisdom． Among these wants is to be reckoned the want, out of civil society,of a sufficient restraint upon their passions．Society requires not only that the passions of individuals should be subj ected, but that even in the mass and body,as well as in the individuals．the inclinations of men should frequently be thwarted, their will controlled, and their passions brought into subjection．This can only be done by a power out of themselves；and not, in the exercise of its function, subject to that will and those passions which is its Office to bridle and subdue．In this sense, the restraints on men, as well as their liberties, are to be reckoned among their rights． But because the liberties and the restrictions vary with times and circumstances．and admit to infinite modifications, they cannot be settled upon by any abstract rule；and nothing is so foolish as to discuss them upon that principle． The moment you abate anything from the full rights of men, each to govern himself,and suffer any artificial, positive limitation upon those rights, from that moment the whole organization of govemment becomes a consideration of convenience．This is which makes the constitution of a state, and the due distribution of its powers, a maRer of the most delicate and complicated skill．It requkes a deep knowledge of human nature and human necessities, and of the things that facilitate or obstruct the various ends, which are to be pursued by the mechanism of civil institutions．The state is to have recruits to its strength, and remedies to its distempers．What is the use of discussing a man's abstract right to food and medicine?The question is upon the method of procuring and administering them．In that deliberation, I shall always advise to callin the aid of the farmer and the physician, rather than the professor of metaphysics．

单选题Interact voting happens all the time, but usually it's confined to topics such as "Who is the cutest cast member of Party of Five?" Soon, however, people will be able to cast their ballot for President on the Internet, ha March, Arizona Democrats will vote online in their state's presidential primary, and Florida and Washington are considering online voting. The military plans to allow a small test group of overseas soldiers to vote via the Internet this November. The Internet voting is growing rapidly. There are civic engagement enthusiasts who see it as a way to prevent the drop in voter turnout. Then there are the Internet fans, who think the Internet is going to change everything, so why not politics? Most important are the people who make the plan for developing software for online voting. Imagine the retail price of that software, then multiply it by every state and city government, and suddenly a lot of Internet capitalists develop a deeply felt concern for increasing voter turnout. Some problems will arise. Hackers and some politicians could break into a voting database and make the secret ballot not so secret. A massive computer failure would have disastrous consequences. Just as serious, online voting could distort participation levels, at least, to the wealthy and cyber-connected. In the long run, however, online voting might make little difference. Since the 1960s, the government has made numerous attempts to energize nonvoters by making it easier for them to get to the polls, extending voting hours, lowering the voting age, etc. Still, voter turnout has decreased steadily. Political scientists believe the important cause is indifference and dislike to politics, not the inconvenience of voting. Putting a ballot on the Internet might even further depress turnout by cheapening one of the holy ceremonies of democracy. "The business of democracy," says Curtis Gans, an analyst of voting behavior, "shouldn't be the same as getting your e-mail./

单选题In such a changing, complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs become complicated. Many of life's problems which were solved by asking family members, friends or colleagues are beyond the capability of the extended family to resolve. Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are questions facing many people today. In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since World War II. As families move away from their stable community, their friends of many years, their extended family relationships, the informal flow of information is cut off, and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable. The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciously learned. Adding to societal changes today is an enormous stockpile of information. The individual now has more information available than any generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming. Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies which enable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before. Computer technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files, and to program computers to locate specific information. Telecommunications developments enable the sending of messages via television, radio, and very shortly, electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared world wide through teleconferencing, and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people. In this world of change and complexity, the need for information is of greatest importance. Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems, the critical problems of their business, social and family life, will survive and succeed. "Knowledge is power" may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people.
