draconian 的意思是嚴(yán)厲的、嚴(yán)苛的,尤其指法律規(guī)定。
As COVID-19 spreads around the globe, governments have responded by imposing

Although many Americans have willingly complied with the stay-at-home rules as a necessary way of defeating the coronavirus, that cooperation will quickly disappear if they find that their leaders are abusing their political powers with foolish and even
