问题     Many laws seem to be created for the purpose of protecting people from themselves. Some examples are age limits for off-road vehicles, seat-belt requirements for cars, and wearing a helmet when riding a motorcycle.
    Opponents of these laws feel that their rights are being restricted. If it doesn’t hurt anyone else, why should there be a law? But if they become injured, it can raise insurance rates for everyone.
    Similarly, consider people putting aside money for their retirement. Suppose they work for a fast-growing company, the hot new stock pick. Many employees invest heavily in the stock. The stock price plummets, their savings will disappear. Laws preventing people from having too much company stock in their retirement accounts could protect them from financial disaster.
    It isn’t easy to find the proper balance between individual rights and common good. Some people will think that the new law goes too far, while others will complain that it doesn’t go far enough. Although we may not agree with every law, some minor inconveniences are part of living in our society.
What is the author’s attitude toward the laws?
选项
答案The author thinks the laws are necessary．
解析 观点态度题。最后一段指出，要在个人权利和大众利益中间找到一个平衡点并不容易。一些人会认为新法律管得太多，然而另一些人则会抱怨新法律管得不够多。虽然我们可能不会赞同每一条法律，但一些小小的不便却是我们社会生活中的一部分。由此可推断，作者认为法律的存在还是有其必要性的。
