本题为老GRE的ISSUE142原题。题目讨论社会繁荣问题,题目认为社会繁荣的增强与公民对权威的质疑相关。本题和老GRE中的ISSUE105--"The true strength of a country is best demonstrated by the willingness of its government to tolerate challenges from it's own citizens"有相似之处。在分析的过程中,可以从社会繁荣的体现、民众对权威提出质疑的目的和形式、权威本身的职责以及对待民众质疑的应有态度、权威与民众互动的过程和社会繁荣之间的关系等方面展开思考。
1. 请列举三个国家的发展情况,简述并对比那些国家里的民众对权威的态度。
回答: 美国:critique态度,宪法保障美国言论自由,民众可以自由批评权威; 中国:压制言论自由,甚至学术上; 朝鲜:什么都不需说。
2. 民众对权威的质疑为一个社会的繁荣给予了哪些作用?请举例并简述。
回答: 民众对权威的质疑为一个社会的繁荣提供了保障。民众对权威质疑的权利保障了言论自由。而言论自由是民主国家的基本保障。当许多民众开始质疑权威的时候,说明民众的独立思考的能力,也就避免了盲从希特勒等独裁者。
3. 权威受到民众的质疑对其本身以及社会,会有哪些利弊?请举例并简述。
回答: 利在于更加注意自身的言行; 弊在于,人无完人。民众有不理智的时候,放大了一些并不重要的事实。
4. 权威不接受民众的质疑对其本身以及社会,会有哪些利弊?请举例并简述。
回答: 独裁,暴力,希特勒。
5. 民众、权威、社会繁荣三者之间存在着怎样的关系?请举例并简述。
回答: 社会真正的繁荣应该依靠民众,而非权威。只有民众发挥自己的力量,建设社会,社会才能得到繁荣。当然,必要的权威,如法律的权威也是必要的。
6. 除了“许多民众开始质疑权威”,哪些其他情况同样可以提升社会的繁荣?这些情况和“许多民众开始质疑权威”相比,在提升社会繁荣的过程中有哪些优势和不足?请举例并简述。

Questioning the authority could be the necessary support to well-being of our society; furthermore, in the manifestation of its positive effects on speech freedom, it might be one of  basic elements of democracy.   A well-being society depends upon the interplay between, on the one hand material prosperity, on the other hand the freedom of mind. Both of them require people to question the authority.  Firstly, the authority should be constricted to forbid the abuse of its power.  As a common sense that the authority is much powerful than the individual citizen.  Without the right to question the authority, it would be insurmountable to protect us from being violated by powerful authority. The most dramatic example was Hitler, who suppressed all criticism of him as soon as he gained power. Unfortunately, he succeeded. From the case of World War II, it can be concluded that the cost of losing the right to question the authority is prohibitively high,  and the difficulties to regain the right were insurmountable without abysmal struggle.  Therefore, we must be cautious on this situation that the authority black out criticism. Furthermore, we should encourage more people to have a critical thinking about the authority, such as governments. S  Secondly, it sounds reasonable at first thought that authority decreases its credibility after being questioned. This attitude can not stand scrutiny.  The first problem is that how can the authority keep its credibility, by banning questioning on itself?
