The sea is the common property of all nations. It belongs equally to all

12、. None can appropriate it exclusively to themselves；nor is it“foreign”to any. This was the decision of John Marshall, chief justice of the United States from 1801 to 1835. It was stated as a fundamental rule the sea that no one, and therefore everyone, owns the ocean. This means that outside territo

13、rial waters(the waters within three miles of a countrys coast), the law is whatever nations agree on in peacetime and whatever the strongest naval powers can enforce in wartime. After the United States purchased Alaska, Americans began to seize Canadians who were hunting seals outside Alaskan territ

14、orial waters. The Americans claimed that the seals were American property because they often came in to the Alaskan shores owned by the United States. International arbitrators disagreed with this reasoning. In some cases, however, the special rights of a nation that makes use of an open-sea area ar

20、to 30 are based on the following passage. There isnt any question about Washingtons greatness. If his administration had been a failure, there would have been no United States. He had all the background that caused him to know how to make it work, because he had worked under the Continental Congress

21、. Some presidents have limited their roles to being administrators of the laws without being leaders. But Washington was both a great administrator and a great leader. I guess, in fact, that the only anti-Washington thing I can say is that he made a mistake when he established the precedent of the t

22、wo-term Presidency, and even there he had a good personal reason for wanting that, at least for himself. He was attacked viciously by the press of his day, he was called so many terrible things that he told friends ever during his first term that he wasnt going to run again. But Thomas Jefferson and
