In the Warren Court era, voters asked the Court to pass on issues concerning the size and shape of electoral districts, partly out of desperation because no other branch of government offered relief, and partly out of hope that the Court would reexamine old decisions in this area as it had in others, looking at basic constitutional principles in the light of modern living conditions.

77、在Warren法庭时代,选民们要求法庭通过有关选区的大小和形状的问题,一方面因为出于绝望-没有什么其他的政府部门提供缓解的办法;一方面出于希望-法庭根据现代的生活条件来审视基本的宪法原则,像其他地区一样重新审查在这一地区的旧的规定。

80、但由于照相机变得越来越精细,越来越自动化了,一些摄影师禁不住开始解除他们的装备或者说他们根本没什么装备,而倾向于运用那些非现代的照相技术,因为一架未成熟的机器被认为更加有趣或者说更能有引起情绪的共鸣,给人更多的创作空间。
