In his essay "Civil Disobedience," Henry David Thoreau wrote, "That government is best which governs least." Answer that best shows how this motto reflects transcendentalist principles is Government can act as an impediment to the will and morality of individual men.

Through this quote, Thoreau asserted that government should not interfere with the lives of the people. In his time the government didn't interfere as compared with today. He believes that the only purpose that we form a government is to protect our rights, liberty and other pursuits rather than interfere with the other aspects of life. He further asserts that when laws and rules are formed which are not directly linked to our security and safety, it does not form the best form of government. Thoreau was upset with the US government and because of slavery and war with Mexico. he believed that government did more to its people than good by allowing slavery.

In at least fifty words, explain the listening style(s) you would use, and why, when listening to a friend share about a problem
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The listening style chosen is the person-oriented style.

Explanation:

The person-oriented listening style is one where an individual is interested in what the speaker of a message has to say. In this case, the listener does not make judgments or analyze technical concepts, but is interested in knowing what the speaker is feeling and what he thinks about a certain situation.

This is the most appropriate style to use when a friend is telling you about a problem, as it allows the listener to understand what is going on, how it affects the friend and how he can help him.
