Answer:
I like Sci-Fi. It's great how creative authors can get while writing them. I've read books like Last Day On Mars and Hungar Game, Divergent and a few other similar series. It's crazy to imagine what like could be like if you were in these books.

An example of a time when citizen's right to free speech can be restricted is when their speech impedes national security. For example, Freedom of Speech was greatly restricted during wars (such as WWII), when national security depended on people keeping quiet to not leak information to foreign spies. This was expanded on by the usage of propoganda, and was usually enforced by Civil Officers. Freedom of Speech however generally is not restricted, even when it hurts another group, as seen in <em>National Socialist Party of America v. Village of Skokie</em>, which, while the Justice sympathized with the people of Skokie, it ruled that freedom of speech cannot be denied to even hate groups.

<span>It reduced coast-to-coast communication from about 180 days to about a week.
This question is mildly ambiguous due to the word "communication". Does it mean "Speed of sending a message?" or "Speed of moving a physical object?" Given the available options as answers, I will assume the meaning is "Speed of moving a physical object?" With that in mind, let's look at the available options and see what makes sense.
It made coast-to-coast communication instantaneous.
* Even modern jets can't travel from coast to coast instantaneously, so you wouldn't expect a train to do so either. So this choice is just plain silly and therefore wrong.
It reduced coast-to-coast communication from about a week to about a day.
* A stagecoach had an average speed of about 5 mph and covered 60 to 70 miles per day. So it's not going to go from coast to coast in only a week. And since that part of the answer is wrong, this choice is wrong.
It reduced coast-to-coast communication from about 180 days to about a week.
* The 180 day estimate is definitely doable. That's an average speed of about 17 miles per day which is a good speed for a person walking day to day. And that would be about 400 miles per day for the train. The numbers make sense and this is the correct answer.
It made coast-to-coast communication more complicated.
* Let's see. Buy a train ticket and possibly arrange for 6 layovers. Or plan a multiple month trip and possibly coordinate that effort without having any rapid means of communications? This option is just plain silly when you consider the logistics of traveling for several months vs traveling for a mere week. So this is a bad choice.</span>
<span>The Isthmus of Panama, also historically known as the Isthmus of Darien, is the narrow strip of land that lies between the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, linking North and South America. It contains the country of Panama and the Panama Canal. Like many isthmuses, it is a location of great strategic value.</span>
