Based on choices I've seen elsewhere for this question, the answer is likely:  Observing traffic laws in exchange for driving on the highway.

Traffic laws are established by the government, and roads and highways are built by governments (local, state and federal).  The "social contract" refers to an implicit agreement between a government and the citizens of the society overseen by that government.  Examples that have to do with business exchanges--such as paying an electric bill in exchange for electricity usage--are examples of business contracts rather than "the social contract."

Philosophers of the Enlightenment era were famous for arguing the idea of a "social contract."  According to this view, a government's power to govern comes from the consent of the people themselves -- those who are to be governed.  This was a change from the previous ideas of "divine right monarchy" -- that a king ruled because God appointed him to be the ruler.  One of the most influential of the social contract theorists was John Locke, who repudiated the views of divine right monarchy in his <em>First Treatise on Civil Government. </em> In his <em>Second Treatise on Civil Government, </em> Locke then argued for the rights of the people to create their own governments according to their own desires and for the sake of protecting and enhancing their own life, liberty, and property.

Answer: driving on the highway

It is the practice of driving in the highway that can be considered as an indicator of finally accepting social contract. Social contract refers to the agreement wherein individuals in all parties agreed to have a natural transfer of right.

Explain how the practice of marrying a mail-order bride is sex trafficking and how it can be prevented. ​
Usimov [2.4K]
The international trafficking of women is defined as any situation where women or girls cannot change the immediate conditions of their existence, regardless of how they got into those conditions. Often this powerlessness to change their situation is paired with sexual exploitation and violence. International marriage brokers often act as human traffickers by offering victims marriage as a viable path forward. It can be prevented by going after these men that purchase these women

What was the ancient chinese social organization (60 points please help)
leva [86]
The Ancient Chinese society was divided on the basis of Feudal System. This gave rise to social hierarchy of Ancient China by classifying the Chinese people into four social classes:

The lowest class in the ancient Chinese society were Merchants and Traders, they were not considered as respectable people.

Then the second to lowest were the Craftsmen, they were regarded as labours, and also were not given respects and privileges.

Then it comes the Peasant Farmers. They were considered as a higher class compare to the Merchants and Craftsmen, since they work in the farm and provide food, and since agriculture in China was a key element of the entire civilisation.

The second to highest were the scholars, they were considered as the low level aristocratic lineage in the ancient Chinese society.

Finally it comes the highest social class, the King. The King and his family were placed on the top level of the ancient Chinese social pyramid, they were the most respected people and they ruled the people in the entire country.

Apart from them, Soldiers were also very respected, they were the second most respectable people in ancient Chinese society.
