In all other contexts, though, it ____ to be a common motorist's error.

____ are there all the time, so their speed is the most important fact that distinguishes them.

But transit is only there if it's ____ soon.

If you have a car, you can use a road whenever you want and experience ____ speed.

But transit ____ to exist when you need it (span), and it needs to be coming soon (frequency).

Otherwise, waiting time will wipe ____ any time savings from a faster service.

In the United States, the practice of permitting aliens to vote could be seen as ____ with the idea of an exclusionary citizenship, but that is a hard balance to maintain.

If the vote, of all rights, is in the hands of noncitizens, ____ should they not count as citizens, and the entire distinction between resident alien and citizen be abandoned?

Indeed, something like this thought probably ____ behind the disappearance of alien voting: with universal adult citizen suffrage after 1920, the only way to maintain an exclusionary kind of citizenship was to restrict the vote to citizens and not residents.

But no theory of "active" democracy can countenance this distinction: the laws concerning our common life must be made by all ____ who are taking part in it, and residence is the only convincing test of whether someone is taking part ― as is understood almost universally when it comes to questions of which citizens should have a voice in local government.

Others, such as Jerome Bruner, one of the founders of cognitive psychology, find that the computer ____ carries with it an unfortunate shift "from the construction of meaning to the processing of information."

Bruner's reflections on the limits of the machine model lead him back to a humanistic emphasis on narrative and story-telling as ____ ingredients in understanding human cognition, a fascinating intellectual journey that reveals both the power and the limits of computers as guides to the way we think.

In the escape that reading literature provides through vicarious identification and comparison with other lives, places, and times, we activate our imagination, that uniquely human ability to explore an alternative set of ideas and experiences that are ____ our present environment and that may not even be real.
