Directions: Each of the following reading comprehension questions is based on the content of the following passage. Read the passage and then determine the best answer choice for each question. Base your choice on what this passage states directly or implies, not on any information you may have gained elsewhere.
(This passage was written prior to 1950)
In the long run a government will always
encroach upon freedom to the extent to which it
has the power to do so; this is almost a natural Line law of politics, since, whatever the intentions of
(5) the men who exercise political power, the sheer
momentum of government leads to a constant
pressure upon the liberties of the citizen. But in
many countries society has responded by throwing
up its own defenses in the shape of social
(10) classes or organized corporations which, enjoying
economic power and popular support, have been
able to set limits to the scope of action of the
executive. Such, for example, in England was the
origin of all our liberties—won from government
(15) by the stand first of the feudal nobility, then of
churches and political parties, and latterly of trade
unions, commercial organizations, and the societies
for promoting various causes. Even in
European lands which were arbitrarily ruled, the
(20) powers of the monarchy, though absolute in
theory, were in their exercise checked in a similar
fashion. Indeed, the fascist dictatorships of today
are the first truly tyrannical governments which
western Europe has known for centuries, and they
(25) have been rendered possible only because on
coming to power they destroyed all forms of
social organization which were in any way rivals
to the state.
Fascist dictatorships differ from monarchies of recent times in
