Think about the changes [that have taken place in our world over the past 100 years]. The first to come to mind are probably the spectacular scientific and technological achievements of the past century — motor vehicles, aircraft, the telephone, radio and TV, computers and genetic engineering. Each new development creates its own demand for legal change. Consider, for example, the vast body of law which has grown up around the motor vehicle: there are regulations governing such matters as the construction and maintenance of motor vehicles, the conduct of drivers on the road and even where vehicles may be parked. Indeed, almost half of the criminal cases tried by magistrates’ courts are directly related to the use of motor vehicles. The increasing volume of traffic on the roads and the resulting inexorable rise in traffic accidents have also led to developments in the civil law, especially in the areas of the law of tort and insurance.
* magistrates’ court: 치안 판사 재판소 ** inexorable: 끊임없는 *** tort: 불법 행위

Sometimes <pursuing the truth about some question> would be morally worse than not pursuing it. This may be because, as in the case of nuclear weapons research, the answer itself may prove dangerous or harmful. But it may also be because the manner of pursuing that truth is dangerous or harmful, or simply morally wrong independently of its consequences. Consider the Nazi or Tuskegee experiments: it is not the information pursued that is morally bad here, but the manner in which that information is pursued. And we need not resort to such dramatic cases. The National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation heavily monitor contemporary scientific research that involves any sort of experiment involving human subjects. In cases where the only way in which we can obtain certain scientific information is harmful to other people, we generally feel — rightly — that the information is not worth pursuing, all things considered. So in deciding whether to pursue a particular line of inquiry, we must first determine [whether <pursuing that line> might conflict with our other values, moral or otherwise].

[문제] 5 밑줄 친 a circus elephant 가 다음 글에서 의미하는 바로 가장 적절한 것은?
As parents, we spend countless hours debating on the freedoms we should allow our children. Too much freedom may lead to mischief while not enough may stifle their growth. How much should be allowed? I am always reminded of a circus elephant when in a discussion on freedom. When the elephant is a baby, it learns restriction by being tethered to a small stake with a four-foot piece of chain. The elephant is trained to know [that its individual freedom is restricted to that small four feet]. As the elephant grows stronger and larger, it still thinks that it has no more freedom outside of those four feet. Although the power to move that stake and run free is immense, it will not attempt to break the stake or the chains because of what it perceives as being able to. Are you a victim of your own restraints as well? Do you not move beyond your four feet circle because you think you are not allowed to? Be bold. Step outside your circle and see if you can grow. Without breakthroughs, there cannot be change.
* mischief: 나쁜 행동[짓] ** stifle: 억누르다 *** tether: (동물을 밧줄로 말뚝에) 매어 놓다
① a victor achieving freedom through personal effort
② a supporter of absolute freedom in all circumstances
③ a thinker who emphasizes responsibility for freedom

The most effective way <to defuse racial ideology> is <to bring people from different ethnic backgrounds together under conditions [that enable them to deal with one another as individuals and discover [that ideologies obscure important aspects of people and the realities of their lives]]>. However, this is difficult when teachers, coaches and employers maintain a belief in the myth of black natural physical talent and a lack of cognitive skills. Social scientist Ellis Cashmore illustrates this with an experience of receiving a telephone call from a black journalist writing for a major newspaper. The journalist asked why no one actually expressed what he believed to be an absolute truth: that black athletes have a ‘natural edge’. The very fact that a talented black journalist believed this defective theory is evidence to its power and the difficulties in escaping expectations based on racial ideology. When such myths maintain credibility in society, black people are regarded as unsuited to, or unwanted for, study, work and other activities that demand mental rather than physical skills.
* defuse: 완화하다 ** obscure: 보기 어렵게 하다
① the influence of media on racial stereotypes
② the need for racial diversity in the workplace
③ the role of education in challenging racial prejudice
④ the importance of sports in promoting racial harmony
⑤ the challenge of escaping racial ideology about black people

Negotiators can make options more palatable by enhancing the attractiveness of accepting them. This is a matter of placing emphasis on the positive rather than the negative. In the language of traditional carrot-and-stick tactics for motivating workers, the approach should make the carrot more attractive rather than enlarging the stick. Promises and offers can be made more attractive in several ways: maximizing the attractive qualities and minimizing the negative ones, showing how the offer meets the other party’s needs, reducing the disadvantages of accepting the offer, making offers more credible by providing third-party references or factual support, or setting deadlines on offers so they expire if not accepted quickly. Many would argue that these are common sales tricks similar to discount coupons, two-for-the-price-of-one offers, “today only” sales, and extra-added-attraction elements. They are! Negotiators can and should use the same techniques that salespeople use to move their products.
* palatable: 마음에 드는
① Establishing a Neutral Position: A Starting Point for Negotiation
② In Negotiation, Sweeten the Offer Rather Than Intensify the Threat
③ Use Both Factual Support and Legal Authority to Win a Negotiation
④ Cases Where Negotiators Themselves Seek Third-Party Intervention

In the worldview of the Cree hunter, humans do not control the hunt. The fish and game are not there simply ① to be taken. Rather it is the animals who control the success of the hunt by offering themselves ② willingly to people (or, conversely, choosing to withhold themselves from a hunter). The Cree credit animals with knowing the same things that people know and ③ being able to communicate and share that knowledge with people. Humans and animals are in a relationship of reciprocity, just as humans ④ do in relationship with other humans. Indeed, anthropologists argue even more generally that in all cultures, including those that are modern and postmodern, there are profound connections between the ways ⑤ that people engage with each other and with other species.
* Cree: 크리족(북아메리카 원주민) ** reciprocity: 호혜 *** anthropologist: 인류학자

Stay-at-home parents have new employment options in our internet economy. Over the last few decades many women have been self-employed. Such an arrangement gives them greater flexibility over their hours and days of work. The rise of remote work could further ① increase opportunities for them. Internet platforms such as Withinwork are two-sided platforms as workers seeking employment post their resumes and employers seeking workers post their tasks. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms play a key ② matchmaking role here by gathering and presenting the set of job opportunities a person sees. I set up my profile on Withinwork and was impressed with the ③ alternative tasks that I was offered by the AI. As with any two-sided matching platform, the more job offerings an applicant sees, the more ④ likely that person will find value in the platform. In this sense, [as remote work grows as a socially high-status activity], this process will ⑤ lose its own momentum.
* momentum: 힘, 탄력
