第4题:

Just how much does the Constitution protect your digital data?The Supreme Court will now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant if the phone is on or around a person during an arrest.California has asked the justices to refrain from a sweeping ruling particularly one that upsets the old assumption that authorities may search through the possessions of suspects at the time of their arrest.It is hard,the state argues,for judges to assess the implications of new and rapidly changing technologies.The court would be recklessly modest if it followed California’s advice.Enough of the implications are discernable,even obvious,so that the justices can and should provide updated guidelines to police,lawyers and defendants.They should start by discarding California’s lame argument that exploring the contents of a smart phone—a vast storehouse of digital information—is similar to,say,rifling through a suspect’s purse.The court has ruled that police don’t violate the Fourth Amendment when they sift through the wallet or pocketbook of an arrestee without a warrant.But exploring one’s smart phone is more like entering his or her home.A smart phone may contain an arrestee’s reading history,financial history,medical history and comprehensive records of recent correspondence.The development of“cloud computing,”meanwhile,has made that exploration so much the easier.Americans should take steps to protect their digital privacy.But keeping sensitive information on these devices is increasingly a requirement of normal life.Citizens still have a right to expect private documents to remain private and protected by the Constitution’s prohibition on unreasonable searches.As so often is the case,stating that principle doesn’t ease the challenge of line-drawing.In many cases,it would not be overly onerous for authorities to obtain a warrant to search through phone contents.They could still invalidate Fourth Amendment protections when facing severe,urgent circumstances,and they could take reasonable measures to ensure that phone data are not erased or altered while a warrant is pending.The court,though,may want to allow room for police to cite situations where they are entitled to more freedom.But the justices should not swallow California’s argument whole.New,disruptive technology sometimes demands novel applications of the Constitution’s protections.Orin Kerr,a law professor,compares the explosion and accessibility of digital information in the 21st century with the establishment of automobile use as a virtual necessity of life in the 20th:The justices had to specify novel rules for the new personal domain of the passenger car then;they must sort out how the Fourth Amendment applies to digital information now.
Orin Kerr’s comparison is quoted to indicate that

A.the Constitution should be implemented flexibly.
B.new technology requires reinterpretation of the Constitution.
C.California’s argument violates principles of the Constitution.
D.principles of the Constitution should never be altered

答案:B
解析:
事实细节根据题干关键词Orin Kerr可以回文定位到文章最后一段。作者引用Orin Kerr这个人的比较是为了说明相关的论点。分析最后一段结构可知,最后一段的第三句和第四句都是在阐述该例子本身,所以相关论点应该往前面找,即是第二句话“New,disruptive technology sometimes demands novel applications of the Constitution’s protection”,选项B与之同义替换,其中,reinterpretation和nove

答案:C
解析:
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。第一段介绍宪法的时候提到:The constitution gives Congress the authority to...,以及It also gives the federal government the power to…介绍完宪法赋予国会和联邦政府哪些权限之后,接下来需要介绍的就是宪法没有赋予联邦政府的权力都归于各个州政府。因此正确答案选C。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。本句之后的三句话中分别介绍了the legislative branch , the executive branch , the judicial branch这三个政府部门,因此第一句是对联邦政府的构成做一概括介绍。因此正确答案选B。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。在对联邦政府的三个部门介绍过后,根据之后提出的例子可以看到这里需要讲述的就是三个部门之间权力的分散制衡,宪法限制每个部门的权力以避免某个部门的权力过大。因此这里选F。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。该句后面讲述了总统(the President)以及国会成员(the members of the Congress)的选举以及联邦各部门的领导和最高法院法官(the heads of federal departments and Supreme Court judges)的任命方式。因此本题选A:政府的选举每四年举行一次。
本题考查的是对上下文之间意义关系的理解和对文章细节的把握。前句提到:Every citizen votes in secret.每个公民都秘密投票,因此导致的结果就是没有人能确切地知道他的邻居对于某个候选人投了支持票还是反对票。因此正确答案选E。
