However, in 1972 the U.S. Supreme Courtruled that the death penalty was cruel and unusual punishment, which was unconstitutional according to the Eighth Amendment. It was public opinion that the current methods of execution, hanging, electrocution, and facing a firing squad, were too slow and painful upon the person to be executed. The U.S. Supreme Court reversed this decision when a cleaner way to bring about death was found in 1976. This cleaner way is death by lethal injection, which is quick and painless if administered right.(2) Many people have argued for and against capital punishment since it was reinstituted. Some say thedeath penalty is what the criminal deserves while others object to it because death is irreversible. I feel the death penalty is a good form of justice because only about 250 people a year get the death penalty and they are guilty beyond a doubt and don't deserve living with the possibility of parole. (3) The sentencing judge or jury are ordered by the Supreme Court to look for specific aggravating andmitigating factors in deciding which convicted murderers should be sentenced to death. Some of these mitigating factors are the defendant's motivation, character, personal history, and most of all remorse. Every year approximately 250 new offenders are added to death row. In 1994 there were 2,850 persons awaiting execution. Yet no more than thirty-eight people have been executed a year since 1976. This is a ridiculously low number compared to 199 persons executed in 1935.(4) The reason for this slow execution rate is the process of appeals. From sentencing to execution thereis about a seven-to-eight-year wait. The convicts' cases are reviewed by the state courts and through the federal courts. With all this opportunity for the case to be turned over or the sentence to be changed it is almost impossible for an innocent person to be executed. Only two people have been proved innocent after their execution in the United States. These wrongful deaths occurred in 1918 and 1949. Since then the justice system has undergone a lot of fine tuning making this extremely unlikely today.(5) One argument against the death penalty is that it costs less to imprison someone for life than toexecute them. This is a good point that has a lot of impact on a lot of people's views regardingcapital punishment since they are the ones footing the bill through taxes. I personally would not mind paying the little bit extra just so I know for sure that there's one less murderer on our planet. If the death-penalty was done away with, prisoners who should have been executed will be mixed in with other inmates. It would be possible and not too unlikely for them to kill another inmate or possibly a prison guard. If someone is lined up for execution then they more than likely deserve it.They have caused a great deal of grief to the family and friends of the victim or victims and it seems like the only way justice could be served is for the criminal to die.(6) For the person to simply go to jail seems unfair. There they will eat three meals a day, get to watchcable TV, and befriend other inmates. They live a pretty decent life in prison and they don't deserve it. Out of the fifty states in the United States 37 have and use capital punishment. Out of the same fifty states only 18 have life imprisonment without parole. In the other 32 states a person who should've been executed can be released after as little as 20 years in prison.(7) There are certain standards that are followed in giving out capital punishment. The defendant can notbe insane, and the real or criminal intent must be present. Also, minors very rarely receive the death penalty because they are not fully mature and might not know the consequences of their actions.Finally the mentally retarded are very seldom executed. The reason for not executing the retarded is that they often have difficulty defending themselves in court, have problems remembering details, locating witnesses, and testifying credibly on their own behalf.(8) If capital punishment were carded out more it would prove to be the crime deterrent it was partlyintended to be. Most criminals would think twice before committing murder if they knew their own lives are at, stake. As it tums out, as very few people are executed, so the death penalty is not a satisfactory deterrent. During highly publicized death penalty cases the homicide rate is found to go down but it goes back up when the case is over.(9) Thomas Edison, a famous scientist and American hero, helped develop and extensively promoted theelectric chair. The electric chair was a popular method of execution from the 1930s to the 1970s. The death penalty is a punishment that will remain active for a long time in the future, even with all the criticism. It is an ancient way of dealing with extremely serious offences that plague our country today. Hopefully the appeals process will be shortened, but remain effective, so more criminals can be executed, making prospective criminals think twice. III. In this section, there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and write the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. (20 points, 2 points for each)41. The death sentence was instituted some C years ago.A. 200B. 300C. 400D. 50042. According to the first paragraph, people generally thought that D .A. lethal injection was painful but quickB. death penalty was cruel and therefore should be abolishedC. facing a firing squad was a cleaner way for capital punishmentD. the methods then used to bring about death were slow and painful43.

The Yellow TreehouseWhenever I travel abroad, I try to eat out as much as possible in order to explore. t he local culture. Over the years, I have been to a great number of restaurants. Some of them have impressed me deeply. If I were to make a list of the most remarkable local restaurants, New Zealand's Yellow Treehouse would top my list.This restaurant is located in the woods ofWarkworth. It is about a 40-minute drive north of Auckland. It is a wooden tree house built ten meters above the ground on a Redwood tree. From the ground, it looks like a small onion-shaped knag(木节)in the middle of the tree trunk. The restaurant also has a narrow wooden bridge. It connects the restaurant with the neighboring trees. The place looks particularly pretty at night!Inside, the place feels quite different from what it looks like outside. It is spacious(宽敞的)and comfortable. What I like the most about the construction is that it is built entirely of natural materials. The restaurant can host up to 30 g uests at a time.

2023年4月高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试英语(二)(课程代码00015)一、阅读判断Why Dogs Bury Their Favorite BonesYou may find it crazy that your dog buries his favorite bone or chew toy, only to dig it up a day or two later, but there is actually a reason behind it---it is simply in their nature. For thousands of years, dogs have buried their bones. The practice itself started long before dogs were even pets when they had to bury bones to survive.When dogs lived in the wild, sometimes food was scarce. If they were able to find food, dogs became very protective of it. Sometimes they would have more bones than they could eat for one meal. To keep other dogs and animals from stealing their bones, dogs would bury them in the ground. When it was time for the next meal, they would dig up their bones and enjoy them again. This would continue until the bones were gone.Even though most dogs have plenty of food to eat today, their instincts sill tell them to bury their bones and favorite toys. They do this to keep other dogs and animals from stealing them, just like their ancestors did. Some dogs keep at least two bones buried at once. When they want to dig up one, they will bury one more. This may leave a backyard full of holes and bones.How do dogs decide where to bury their bones? A dog cannot bury a bone just anywhere. He must first find the perfect spot. This involves using his nose to find a spot that is free from other dogs and animals. Often it is near a tree or a large rock, but it could be anywhere in the yard. Once the dog finds the perfect spot, he uses his front paws to dig a hole, drops the bone in and covers up the hole to protect his treasure.1) Dogs bury their favorite bones or chew toys by nature.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given【正确答案】 A【答案解析】 by nature:天生地,生性。

Every dawn, as I thud around New York City’s Central Park reservoir, I amreminded of how much I hate it. It’s so tedious. Some claim jogging is thought conducive;others insist the scenery relieves the monotony. For me, the pace is wrong for contemplation of either ideas or vistas. While jogging, all I can think about is jogging—or nothing. One advantage of joggin g around a reservoir is that there’s no dry shortcut home.(2) From the listless looks of some fellow trotters, I guess I am not alone in my unenthusiasm:Bill-paying, it seems, would be about as diverting. Nonetheless, we continue to jog; more, we continue to choose to jog. From a practically infinite array of opportunities, we select one that we don’t enjoy and can’t wait to have done with. Why?(3) For any trend, there are as many reasons as there are participants. This person runs to lower hisblood pressure. That person runs to escape the telephone or a cranky spouse or a filthy household. Another person runs to avoid doing anything else, to dodge a decision about how to lead his life or a realization that his life is leading nowhere. Each of us has his carrot and stick. In my case, the stick is my slackening physical condition, which keeps me from beating opponents at tennis whom I overwhelmed two years ago. My carrot is to win.(4) Beyond these completely different reasons, however, lies a deeper cause. It is no accident thatnow, in the last third of the twentieth century, personal fitness and health have suddenly become a popular obsession. True, modern man likes to feel good, but that hardly distinguishes him from his predecessors.(5) With amusingly ridiculous myopia (目光短浅), economists like to claim that the deeper causeof everything is economic. Delightfully, there seems no marketplace explanation for jogging.True, jogging is cheap, but then not jogging is cheaper. And the scant and simple equipment which jogging demands must make it a marketer’s least favored form of recreation.(6)Some scout-masterish philosophers argue that the appeal of jogging and other body-maintenance programs is the discipline they afford. We live in a world in which individuals have fewer and fewer obligations. The work week has shrunk. Weekend worship is less compulsory. Technology gives us more free time. Satisfactorily filling free time requires imagination and effort. Freedom is a wide and risky river; it can drown the person who does not know how to swim across it. The more obligations one takes on, the more time one occupies, the less threat freedom poses. Jogging can become an instant obligation. For a portion of his5 / 9day, the jogger is not his own man; he is obedient to a regimen he has accepted.(7)Theologists may take the argument one step further. It is our modern irreligion, our lack ofconfidence in any hereafter, that makes us anxious to stretch our mortal stay as long as possible. We run, as the saying goes, for our lives, hounded by the suspicion that these are the only lives we are likely to enjoy.(8) All of these theorists seem to me more or less right. As the growth of cults and charismaticreligions and the resurgence of enthusiasm for the military draft suggest, we do crave commitment. And who can doubt, watching so many middle-aged and older persons torturing themselves in the name of fitness, that we are unreconciled to death, more so perhaps than any generation in modern memory?(9) But I have a hunch (预感) that there’s a further explanation of our obsession with exercise. Isuspect that what motivates us even more than a fear of death is a fear of dearth. Our era is the first to anticipate the eventual depletion of all natural resources. We see wilderness shrinking;rivers losing their capacity to sustain life; the air, even the stratosphere (同温层), being loaded with potentially deadly junk. We see the irreplaceable being squandered, and in the depths of our consciousness we are fearful that we are creating an uninhabitable world. We feel more or less helpless and yet, at the same time, desirous to protect what resources we can. We recycle soda bottles and restore old buildings and protect our nearest natural resource—our physical health—in the almost superstitious hope that such small gestures will help save an earth that we are damaging. Jogging becomes a sort of penance for our sins of gluttony, greed, and waste.Like a hairshirt or a bed of naril, the more one hates it, the more virtuous it makes one feel. (10)That is why we jog.
