The effectiveness of government depends on the willingness of the governed to give up some degree of freedom and _____ the laws in return for the assurance of an orderly existence.
A. profit by  获益于
B. resort to  使用;诉诸
C. conform to  符合;遵从(标准)
D. abide by  遵守,遵照(法律、法规、协议等)
网友的答案正确。这个并列的不定式:give up some degree of freedom and abide by  the laws,前后意思在逻辑上应该是一致的:(自愿)放弃一定程度的自由并且遵守法律。这样,政府的治理才有效率。
