单选题{{B}}Passage One{{/B}}
Let us suppose that you am in the
position of a parent. Would you allow your children to read any book they wanted
to without first checking its contents? Would you take your children to see any
film without first finding out whether it is suitable for them? If your answer
to these questions is "yes", than you am either extremely permissive. If your
answer is "no", then you are exercising your right as a parent to protect your
children from what you consider to be undesirable influences. In other words, by
acting as a censor yourself, you are admitting that there is a strong case for
censorship. Now, of course, you will say that it is one thing to
exercise censorship where children are concerned and quite another to do the
same for adults. Children need protection and it is the parents' responsibility
to provide it. But what about adults? Aren't they old enough to decide what is
good for them? The answer is that many adults are, but don't make the mistake of
thinking that all adults are like you. Censorship is for the good of society as
a whole. Like the law, censorship contributes to the common good.
Some people think that it is disgraceful that a censor should interfere
with works of art. Who is this person, they say, to ban this great book or cut
that great film? No one can set himself up as a superior being. But we must
remember two things. Firstly, where genuine works of art are concerned, modern
censors are extremely liberal in their views---often far more liberal than a
large section of the public. Artistic merit is something which censors clearly
recognize. And secondly, we must bear in mind that the great proportion of
books, plays end films which come before the censor are very far from being
"works of art". When discussing censorship, therefore, we should
not confine our attention to great masterpieces, but should consider the vast
numbers of publications and films which make up the bulk of the entertainment
industry. When censorship laws are relaxed, immoral people are given a license
to produce virtually anything in the name of "art". There is an increasing
tendency to equate artistic with "pornographic". The vast market for pornography
would rapidly be exploited. One of the great things that censorship does is to
prevent certain people from making fat profits by corrupting the minds of
others. To argue in favor of absolute freedom is to argue in favor of
anarchy. Society would really be the poorer if it deprived
itself of the wise counsel and the restraining influence which a censor
provides.
