Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

The early U.S. Founders were adamantly opposed to prior restraints, and this opposition was at the forefront of their minds when drafting the First Amendment. A prior restraint is formal censorship by the government before publication. Prior restraints violate the First Amendment unless the speech is obscene, is defamatory, or creates a clear and present danger to society.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
