Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 7.36 Civic and Ethical Dimensions of the Past skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A philosopher writes: "When laws are unjust, obedience becomes complicity." A mayor replies: "If everyone follows personal conscience, society collapses."

Which response best synthesizes the ethical dilemma?

AUnjust laws should always be obeyed without question

BCivic order matters, but conscience and justice can justify nonviolent civil disobedience when legal channels fail

CConscience should replace all elections and courts

DSociety collapses whenever anyone protests

Solution & Explanation:The dilemma is order versus justice. A synthesis recognizes the need for stability while allowing principled, nonviolent disobedience under unjust systems, especially when normal reforms are blocked.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A rural community petitions for a hospital. The government agrees but requires the community to provide half the funding. City neighborhoods receive hospitals fully funded due to higher tax bases.

Which civic and ethical critique best applies?

AEqual services require equitable funding; matching requirements can deepen inequality between rich and poor areas

BRural areas always have more resources than cities

CFunding rules never affect access to health care

DHospitals reduce inequality automatically no matter how funded

Solution & Explanation:Requiring local matching favors wealthier communities. This can restrict opportunity for poorer areas, raising fairness concerns about how public goods are distributed.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A journalist investigates a law banning "false information." The journalist finds that only critics of the ruling party are prosecuted, while supporters spreading the same incorrect rumor are not.

Which claim is best supported by the evidence?

AThe law is being used to restrict political opposition rather than neutrally protect truth

BCritics should stop speaking to avoid conflict

CRumors disappear when courts exist

DThe law is enforced equally against all citizens

Solution & Explanation:Selective prosecutions indicate political targeting. If supporters are not punished for the same behavior, the 'truth' law functions as a tool against dissent.
