Answer 2

1. When J. Kennedy says "There are few earthly things more beautiful than a university," he implies that universities are a symbol of knowledge, enlightenment, and progress. He sees universities as a place where ideas are explored, knowledge is shared, and individuals are shaped to become leaders and contributors to society.

2. The phrase "Pax Americana" refers to the period of relative peace and stability that existed during the Cold War due to the dominant position of the United States as a global superpower. It signifies the American-led international order and the absence of major conflicts between the superpowers.

3. The notion of a "total war" refers to a conflict in which all available resources and manpower are mobilized, and the entire society is engaged in the war effort. It involves the complete commitment of a nation's economy, industry, and population to achieve victory, often resulting in massive destruction and loss of life.

4. J. Kennedy expresses a cautious attitude towards the Soviet Union in his speech. While acknowledging the ideological differences and competition between the United States and the Soviet Union, he emphasizes the need for peaceful coexistence and mutual understanding. He states, "We must never negotiate out of fear. But we must never fear to negotiate."

5. The words "our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal" highlight the shared humanity and interconnectedness of all people. Kennedy emphasizes the importance of recognizing our common interests and working together to ensure a peaceful and prosperous future for all.

6. The main issue in J. Kennedy's speech is the threat of nuclear war and the need for global cooperation to prevent it. He calls for a shift from the Cold War mentality and emphasizes the importance of diplomacy, dialogue, and disarmament to achieve lasting peace.

7. While the likelihood of accidental war may have decreased with advances in technology and communication, it is still possible in certain scenarios. The risk of miscalculation, miscommunication, or unintended escalation exists, especially in tense geopolitical situations. Therefore, it is crucial to maintain open lines of communication and engage in diplomatic efforts to prevent accidental conflict.

8. The words "mutual tolerance" in J. Kennedy's speech refer to the need for understanding, respect, and acceptance between different nations and ideologies. It emphasizes the importance of recognizing and accommodating different perspectives without resorting to hostility or aggression.

9. There is no direct evidence to suggest that J. Kennedy's desire to establish "bridges" with the Soviet Union contributed to his assassination. His assassination was a result of complex political and personal factors unrelated to his foreign policy approach.

10. When J. Kennedy says "Peace is a process," he means that achieving and maintaining peace requires continuous effort, dialogue, and cooperation. It is not a static state but an ongoing endeavor that requires commitment and active involvement from all nations.

11. The main points in J. Kennedy's speech include the importance of education and universities, the need for peaceful coexistence with the Soviet Union, the threat of nuclear war, the importance of diplomacy and disarmament, and the shared responsibility of all nations to work towards a peaceful future.

12. As an AI language model, I don't have personal opinions or preferences. However, future politicians may appreciate Kennedy's emphasis on diplomacy, international cooperation, and the importance of education in shaping future leaders. They may also appreciate his call for a shift from the Cold War mindset and the recognition of shared humanity and interconnectedness.

13. The problems of disarmament and peace are still urgent today, although the geopolitical landscape has changed since the Cold War. The proliferation of nuclear weapons, regional conflicts, terrorism, and the rise of new global powers all contribute to ongoing concerns about peace and security. Additionally, new challenges such as climate change and cybersecurity have emerged as urgent problems that require international cooperation and collective action. The urgency of each problem may vary depending on the context and region.
