1． 带让步反对 质疑权威有的时候会带来进步，然而有的时候会造成社会动荡。
2． 在科学领域，权威理论未必是真理，我们今天所形成的科学体系和认知观念都是由不断的挑战与突破换来的。EG（伽利略，哥白尼）
3． 政治领域 当群众质疑权威的时候往往带来新的时代，EG（美国南北战争，中国的时代更迭）
4． 但是不是所有对权威的质疑都是有益于社会的发展的。也许这些人民群体的认知有误而权威是利于社会发展的。

142T 统一与分歧 问题解答 "The well-being of a society is enhanced when many of its people question authority." 142． 当很多人都质疑权威的时候，社会才能更安定。
同意挑战权威带来好处，但消极作用不容忽视(大正小负)
①        利于学术进步。Challenging academic authority promotes academic progress.经济学发展。human evolution; earth-centered solar system; 魏格纳质疑原有理论提出板块漂移。
②        经济上，It was by overthrowing the King of England that the United States was born, and suspicion of authority has remained a pillar of American life. This attitude has helped establish the USA as the birthplace of innovations that have changed the world.
③        On the society level。Helps in bring about a democratic society. 当the majority质疑the minority, 必然存在flaws. Challenging political authority forces politicians and the government to be more democratic, efficient, responsible and honest.
挑战权威使政治更加民主(Martin;)
比如质疑men dominance的women right运动，推动了Equal Pay Act,19th宪法修正案保护妇女right to vote,等妇女权利保护的立法，提高了妇女地位，是社会的进步。
④        某些政治权威挑战是为满足少数人的目的，多数人反而沦为了被利用的工具，造成危害；需要非暴力挑战Mahatma Gandhi
Los Angeles riot; challenge the legal system which acquitted the police officers in the beating of Rodney King; demolish peaceful life; destroy the community  looting, arson, deadly assault，恶意的，非法的质疑会扰乱社会秩序，骚乱，恐怖主义
（性质问题）

⑤        过度质疑有时可能使政策难以执行。在动荡时期，质疑权威只会使社会更加动荡However, a society in which individuals show no respect at all to any form of authority faces the danger of disintegration.。
（程度问题）但这种质疑不能超越法律的界限

部分同意，大正小负
1.        in academic         simulate the development(Copernicus-Heliocentric to Geocentric, William Harvey: discover the circulation of the blood and the role of the heart, refuting the theories of Galen)
2.        in politic                force the government to be more democratic….()
3.        然而，社会充满过多的质疑也会造成相应的危害。并不是所有的质疑都是善意的，而人们往往会被煽动；过多的质疑使人们之间的信任减少，当这种情况过于严重，会影响社会稳定；新的科学观点难以很快被接受，新的政府政策难以顺利的执行。。。

The author proclaimed that questioning authority leads to a prosperous society. While I concur with him of questioning is the source of well-being, I also hold the view if we question the authority unreasonably, it may lead to an opposite direction.
outline：
1对权威的随意质疑让社会变得混乱。Admittedly, under some circumstance, the arbitrary challenge to the authority will lead to severe damage.权威的作用（The significance of the authority, which is widely accepted as truth, is to provide us what we can believe when we confront a strange realm full of knowledge beyond our cognition.），医生的例子（We can't always work out what's the meaning of the doctor's work, but as the therapy demands, we should obey what they dictate.）
2合理地质疑权威是社会进步的动力。The reasonable challenge is the driving force of the society's progress.各个领域质疑带来的进步
3只有在质疑和顺从中找到平衡，才能更好的促进社会的繁荣。Development is a process finding an equilibrium between question and compliance.
