Driven by a triumphalist ideology, an exaggerated sense of threats, and a self-serving military- industrial complex, this juggernaut is tightening its grip on much of the world. The Pentagon has re- placed the State Department as the primary shaper of foreign policy. Military commanders in regional headquarters are modern-day proconsuls, warrior-diplomats who direct the United States' imperial reach. Johnson fears that this military empire will corrode democracy, bankrupt the nation, spark opposition, and ultimately end in a Soviet-style. collapse.
In this rendering, the American military empire is a novel form. of domination. Johnson de- scribes it as an "international protection racket: mutual defense treaties, military advisory groups, and military forces stationed in foreign countries to" defend" against often poorly defined, overblown, or nonexistent threats." These arrangements create "satellites"—ostensibly independent countries whose foreign relations revolve around the imperial state.
Johnson's previous polemic, Blowbaek, asserted that post-1945 U.S. spheres of influence in East Asia and Latin America were as coercive and exploitative as their Soviet counterparts. The Sorrows of Empire continues this dubious line. Echoing 1960s revisionism, Johnson asserts that the United States' Cold War security system of alliances and bases was built on manufactured threats and driven by expansionary impulses. The United States was not acting in its own defense; it was exploiting opportunities to build an empire. The Soviet Union and the United States, according to this argument, were more alike than different: both militarized their societies and foreign policies and expanded outward, establishing imperial rule through "hub and spoke" systems of client states and political dependencies.
Unfortunately, Johnson offers no coherent theory of why the United States seeks empire. At one point, he suggests that the American military empire is founded on "a vast complex of interests, commitments, and projects." The empire of bases has become institutionalized in the military establishment and has taken on a life of its own. There is no discussion, however, of the forces within U. S. politics that resist or reject empire. As a result, Johnson finds imperialism everywhere and in everything the United States does, in its embrace of open markets and global economic integration as much as in its pursuit of narrow economic gains.
According to the passage, which of the following is the most important character shared by both satellite and "satellite" countries?
A．Revolving around a center body.
B．have no orbit of their own.
C．dependent.
D．smaller than others.
Nations, too, through the political or military party in power, have their philosophers of thought and actions. Wars are waged and revolutions incited because of the clash of ideologies, the conflict of philosophies, h has always been so. World War Two is but the latest and most dramatic illustration of the combustible nature of differences in social and political philosophy.
Philosophy, says Plato, begins with wonder. We wonder about the destructive fury of earthquake, floods, storms, drought, pestilence, famine and fire, the mysteries of birth and death, pleasure and pain, change and permanence, cruelty and kindness, instincts and ideals, mind and body, the size of the universe and man's place in it. Our questions are endless. What is man? What is Nature? What is justice? What is duty? Alone among the animals man is concerned about his origin and end ,about his purposes and goals, about the meaning of life and the nature of reality. He alone distinguishes between beauty and ugliness, good and evil, the better and the worse. He may be a member of the animal kingdom, but he is also a citizen of the world ideas and values.
Some of man's questions have been answered. Where the answer is clear, we call it science or art and move to higher ground and a new vista of the world. Many of our questions, however, will never have final answers. Men will always discuss the nature of justice and right, the significance of evil, the art of government, the relation of mind and matter, the search for truth, the quest for happiness, the idea of God, and the meaning of reality.
The human race has reflected so long and often on these problems that the same patterns of thought recurs in almost every age. We should know what these thoughts are. We should know what answers have been suggested by those who have most influenced ancient and modern thought. We shall want to do our own thinking and find our own answers. It is, however, neither necessary nor advisable to travel alone. Others have helped dispel the darkness, and the light they have kindled may also illuminate our way.
By saying" Every man is a philosopher" (Line 1, Paragraph 1), the author implies that
A．everybody can know and use philosophic theories well enough to deal with the world.
B．philosophy will help everybody to deal with the world though he is not a philosopher.
C．everybody has his own views of life and they will practice these views in the world.
D．it is important for everybody to know and use philosophy to deal with the world.
The 【21】______ took a sharp upward leap with the invention of writing, but even 【22】______ it remained painfully slow for several centuries. The next great leap forward 【23】______ knowledge acquisition did not occur 【24】______ the invention of movable type in the 15th century by Gutenberg and others. 【25】______ to 1500, by the most optimistic 【26】______ Europe was producing books at a rate of 1000 titles per year. This means that it 【27】______ a full century to produce a library of 100,000 titles. By 1950, four and a half 【28】______ later, the rate had accelerated so sharply that Europe was producing 120,000 titles a year. 【29】______ once took a century now took only ten months. By 1960, a 【30】______ decade later, the rate had made another significant jump, 【31】______ a century's work could be finished in seven and a half months. 【32】______ , by the mid-sixties, the output of books on a world 【33】______ , Europe included, approached the prodigious figure of 900 titles per day.
One can 【34】______ argue that every book is a net gain for the advancement of knowledge. Nevertheless we find that the accelerative 【35】______ in book publication does, in fact, crudely 【36】______ the rate at which man discovered new knowledge. For example, prior to Gutenberg 【37】______ 11 chemical elements were known. Antimony, the 12th, was discovered 【38】______ about the time he was working on his invention. It was fully 200 years since the 11th, arsenic, had been discovered. 【39】______ the same rate of discovery continued, we would by now have added only two or three additional elements to the periodic table since Gutenberg. 【40】______ , in the 450 years after his time, certain people discovered some seventy additional elements. And since 1900 we have been isolating the remaining elements not at a rate of one every two centuries, but of one every three years.
【21】
