ISSUE 1:
Some people claim that you can tell whether a nation is great by looking at the achievements of its rulers, artists, or scientists. Others argue that the surest indicator of a great nation is, in fact, the general welfare of all its people.
Write a response in which you discuss which view more closely aligns with your own position and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should address both of the views presented.
ISSUE 2
Claim: Imagination is a more valuable asset than experience.

ISSUE 3
"There are two types of laws: just and unjust. Every individual in a society has a responsibility to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey and resist unjust laws."
【翻譯】
有兩種法律：公正的和不公正的。每個社會成員都有責任遵守公正的法律，但是更重要的是，更應該不遵守和反抗不公正的法律。
【提綱】
1、我們應當自覺遵守維護法律秩序，特別是公正的法律，用以維護社會的秩序，這樣一方面能夠維護社會的秩序，例如交通法規，另一方面通過約束他人保障公民自己的權利
2、對於不公正的法律，我們更應該不遵守或者反抗以保證維護的正義，例如希特勒二戰期間屠殺猶太人的法律
3、然而，在實際生活中，由於價值觀的不同，我們很難正確辨別哪些法律是不公正的法律，如對於安樂死和死刑，不同國家法律有不同的規定
4、結論，在可辨認的前提下，我們要堅決遵守公正法律抵制不公正的法律
*公正和不公正的法律
一、Can we?不行。不同意，for reasons having to do with subjective definition of justice, the ideal form of laws, and the principle of legislation.
二、公正是不好說的Fairness, a subjective judgm ent, can never be the standard of a law because everyone has a distinctive measure.
1.每個人都有 value system ，priorities. 殺人犯, abortion
2.不可能 gratify每個人, emotional, radical, chaos
三、法律理想的狀態
1.如果滿足每個人，將不再滿足抽象性。滿足每個人 unilateral 意味著ruin the integrity 和practicality
2. 個人 judgment 不能帶代表全部，儘管他 cries for justice
四、涉及到法律的原則性問題 bills are voted by the majority and after their pass, everyone is equal, which is the base of any democratic society.
1.法案是多數人通過的，且它通過以後，法律面前人人平等。這樣使得人們德權利得到保護，不同於奴隸封建社會，權威想幹什麼就幹什麼
st 意味著賦予某人 privilege，破壞法律的平等性
3. erudite 的Socrates
