2.RC
While economists recognize that private cartels are difficult to sustain, they are too sanguine about the prospects for government‐assisted cartels. Although the state's coercive power would seem to make it an effective enforcer of cartel agreements, the political costs of enforcement can be high of segments of the industry resist. The government's solution lies in alternative strategies for raising prices. Examining government efforts to organize an orange cartel in the 1930s, we find that farmers' opposition to output cuts and quota assignments because of their distributional effects forced a policy she to purchases of “excess stocks.”

Although economists have long recognized that private cartels are difficult to sustain, they generally have been too sanguine in their assessment of the potential for government-built or assisted cartels. The coercive power of the state has seemed to be a natural remedy for forcing agreement and compliance with output reductions and individual quotas when no private consensus can be reached. This View, however, neglects the costs faced by politicians and bureaucrats when the industry is agreement over quota policies. Yet, these are precisely the conditions under which government assistance is asserted to be most necessary. Under these circumstances, a government-sponsored cartel may be no more successful in achieving production restrictions than were private cartels. The advantage of government efforts, as federal agricultural programs make clear, is that there is a much longer menu of alternatives for raising prices, such as government purchases to enhance demand.

As noted in the beginning of the paper, agriculture is perhaps the most heavily regulated sector of the American economy, a process that largely began with the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933. Although the focus of that law was on production control and marketing restrictions, political opposition to output controls by various farm groups brought a shift in emphasis to demand enhancement with government acquisitions of ”excess” stocks. Gradually in the 1930s, through the purchase of commodities by the Commodity Credit Corporation and other similar agencies and their distribution through relief, and later, through subsidized exports, food aid, and school lunch programs, the modern character of federal agricultural programs took shape. Government purchases were much more acceptable to influential farm groups than were production and shipping controls in the effort to raise farm prices and incomes. As a broad, generally unorganized group, taxpayers increasingly absorbed many of the costs of federal farm policy.

The case of orange marketing agreements illustrates the distributional conflicts over quotas that can be encountered heterogeneous and there is dis in attempting to establish government-sponsored cartels. Competing views regarding quota design in the proposed cartel prevented a cohesive industry position in negotiating the marketing agreements with the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. Further, the strong political reaction in Florida to the quotas that were adopted by the agency forced repeated modification of the marketing agreements over six years until an acceptable arrangement could be devised. The final marketing agreement, however, had little resemblance to the nationwide cartel outlined in 1933 under the Agricultural Adjustment Act.

1. The passage suggests that the government's role in assisting cartels is most necessary when:
(A) the industry is in agreement over quota policies

(D) demonstrate the Agricultural Adjustment Administration's flexibility in modifying policies

(A) the government's inability to enforce cartel agreements effectively
(B) the changing focus of federal agricultural programs in the 1930s

(C) farmers' opposition and resistance to the proposed measures
(D) the government's shift in emphasis to demand enhancement

(B) finding alternative strategies for raising prices
(C) relying on the success of private cartels
(D) ensuring a cohesive industry position in negotiating agreements
(E) modifying marketing agreements repeatedly until an acceptable arrangement is found

(B) the failure of private cartels to achieve production restrictions
(C) political opposition to output controls by various farm groups
(D) the government's desire to establish a nationwide cartel
(E) the effectiveness of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration's marketing agreements

10. The author's perspective on the role of government in assisting cartels can best be summarized as:
(A) government assistance is essential for the success of cartels
(B) government-assisted cartels are more effective than private cartels
(C) government assistance may not be sufficient to overcome the challenges faced by cartels
(D) government should not intervene in the formation and operation of cartels

Amidst the tumultuous maelstrom of the Second World War, the indomitable Allied forces, under the aegis of such luminaries as Generals Dwight D. Eisenhower, George S. Patton, Bernard Montgomery, and Georgy Zhukov, found themselves confronted with the Herculean task of judiciously allocating their finite resources and assiduously formulating a comprehensive stratagem to unleash a decisive offensive against the formidable and tenacious Axis powers. The four paramount battlefronts that were the cynosure of their meticulous deliberations were the hallowed beaches of Normandy, the densely forested and labyrinthine Ardennes region, the sun-drenched and rugged island of Sicily, and the embattled and beleaguered city of Stalingrad. These battlefronts were subjected to a rigorous and exhaustive assessment based on five cardinal factors that would inexorably shape the outcome of the conflict:

1. The overarching and far-reaching strategic significance of the geographical location, taking into account its pivotal role in the grand tapestry of the war and its potential to decisively alter the balance of power.
2. The formidability, resilience, and near-impenetrability of the enemy's elaborate and entrenched defensive fortifications, which had been painstakingly constructed to thwart and repel any Allied incursion.
3. The intrinsic potential for a triumphant and inexorable Allied advancement and territorial acquisition, which would irrevocably shift the momentum of the war in their favor and deal a devastating blow to the enemy's morale.
4. The projected attrition rates and the anticipated consumption of precious and finite resources, both human and material, that would be required to secure a hard-fought victory and maintain the initiative.
5. The profound and far-reaching ramifications on the overall trajectory and outcome of the war effort, encompassing the military, political, economic, and social dimensions of the conflict.

Each battlefront was meticulously evaluated and assigned a score derived from an extensive and comprehensive analysis of intelligence reports, utilizing a nuanced and granular scale ranging from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest). Moreover, the sagacious Allied High Command assiduously pored over historical precedents, future projections, and the multifaceted and often inscrutable socio-political implications of potential military operations, seeking to divine the most propitious course of action.

The esteemed and battle-hardened Allied generals, each possessed of their own unique strategic acumen, operational predilections, and martial philosophies, engaged in a spirited and impassioned discourse to determine the optimal allocation of resources and manpower, cognizant of the grave responsibility that rested upon their shoulders.

General Eisenhower, renowned for his methodical and pragmatic approach to warfare, advocated for a concentrated and relentless effort on those battlefronts that exhibited the highest cumulative scores across all five dimensions, arguing that such a strategy would ensure the successful execution of major Allied operations, maintain a strategic advantage, and hasten the inevitable defeat of the Axis powers.

General Patton, an inveterate proponent of bold and audacious offensive maneuvers, favored targeting those battlefronts that were characterized by the most vulnerable and exposed enemy defenses, yet offered the greatest potential for rapid and far-reaching Allied advances and territorial gains, seeking to capitalize on the initiative and maintain an unrelenting pressure on the enemy.

General Montgomery, a meticulous and calculating strategist, recommended focusing the preponderance of resources on those battlefronts that held the most significant strategic value and the potential to deliver a debilitating and irreparable blow to the enemy's warfighting capabilities, arguing that a methodical and patient approach would ultimately yield the most decisive results.

General Zhukov, ever mindful of the human cost of war and the toll exacted on both combatants and civilians alike, argued for prioritizing those battlefronts that were projected to incur the lowest casualty rates and resource expenditure, seeking to preserve the combat effectiveness and long-term sustainability of the Allied forces, while simultaneously minimizing the suffering inflicted upon all those caught in the maelstrom of conflict.

Based on the meticulous and exhaustive analysis of available intelligence, the scores for each battlefront were as follows:

Normandy: Strategic importance (9), Enemy defenses (7), Advancement potential (8), Casualty and resource projection (6), Impact on war effort (9)
Ardennes: Strategic importance (6), Enemy defenses (8), Advancement potential (5), Casualty and resource projection (7), Impact on war effort (6)
Sicily: Strategic importance (7), Enemy defenses (5), Advancement potential (7), Casualty and resource projection (4), Impact on war effort (6)
Stalingrad: Strategic importance (10), Enemy defenses (9), Advancement potential (6), Casualty and resource projection (9), Impact on war effort (10)

The Allied generals, each an avatar of martial prowess and strategic acumen, found themselves at an impasse, their divergent perspectives and operational philosophies threatening to undermine the unity and cohesion of the Alliance. As the debate grew more heated and fractious, it fell upon the sagacious and diplomatic General Eisenhower to forge a consensus and chart a path forward that would satisfy the competing demands of his esteemed colleagues while ensuring the ultimate victory of the Allied cause.

Drawing upon his reserves of patience, tact, and persuasion, Eisenhower deftly navigated the labyrinthine complexities of the strategic landscape, seeking to reconcile the disparate and often conflicting priorities of his fellow commanders. He recognized that the key to success lay not in dogmatic adherence to any single approach, but rather in a flexible and adaptive strategy that could harness the unique strengths and capabilities of each battlefront while mitigating their inherent risks and vulnerabilities.

To this end, Eisenhower proposed a multi-pronged offensive that would strike at the heart of the Axis powers, combining the audacity and aggression of Patton's vision with the methodical precision of Montgomery's, while heeding Zhukov's counsel to minimize the human cost of the endeavor. The plan called for a massive, coordinated assault on the beaches of Normandy, which would serve as a vital foothold for the liberation of Western Europe, while simultaneously launching a series of diversionary attacks in the Ardennes and Sicily to keep the enemy off-balance and divided.

Meanwhile, recognizing the paramount importance of the Eastern Front in the ultimate defeat of Nazi Germany, Eisenhower pledged to provide unwavering support to the valiant Soviet forces battling in the ruins of Stalingrad, funneling vital resources, intelligence, and materiel to bolster their heroic stand against the relentless onslaught of the Wehrmacht.

As the Allied commanders pondered Eisenhower's proposal, they were forced to confront the grim calculus of war, weighing the potential rewards of each course of action against the inevitable costs in blood and treasure. The debates raged long into the night, as each general passionately advocated for their preferred strategy, marshaling evidence, logic, and rhetoric to sway their colleagues to their cause.

In the end, it was Eisenhower's steady hand and unifying vision that carried the day, as he deftly forged a consensus among his fractious allies, convincing them that only through unity, sacrifice, and unwavering resolve could they hope to vanquish the forces of tyranny and oppression that threatened to engulf the world in darkness.

As the Allied forces girded themselves for the monumental struggles ahead, they drew strength and inspiration from the knowledge that they were part of a grand and noble enterprise, a crusade against evil that would echo through the ages. With Eisenhower at the helm, they steeled their resolve, marshaled their courage, and set forth to meet their destiny on the battlefields of Europe, determined to forge a new and better world from the ashes of the old.

第一段:Economists认为虽然private cartels不容易sustain, government-assisted cartels 有可能存续(观点1)。coercive power 有效,但是有阻碍。solution是 alternative strategies for raising prices。举例说明orange cartel。

第二段:提出对第一段economists提到的government-assisted cartel的反对观点:neglect costs, 而这决定了成败。

第三段:agriculture是美国监管最严的行业了。 shift in emphasis to demand enhancement

第四段:举例orange market agreements是一个很好的distributional conflicts的例子
