Unit 3安乐死：赞成还是反对

“我们千万别再拖下去了„，我吞咽困难，呼吸困难„，那些部位的肌肉一点劲也没有了 „，千万别再拖了。”

这是一名叫齐思·范·万德尔·尤德的荷兰人在恳求他的医生帮助他死时说的话。范·万德尔因身患重病，言语含混不清，他自己也知道根本没有康复的希望，因为他的病情在迅速恶化。

在让医生给自己注射最后一针也是致死一针之前，范·万德尔生命的最后三个月被拍成了电影，去年在荷兰电视上首次播出。在这之后20个国家先后购买了这套电视节目，每次播放，都引发了全民对安乐死问题的大讨论。

荷兰是欧洲惟一允许安乐死的国家。从技术上讲安乐死不合法，但如果医生按照两年前荷兰议会制定的严格的指导原则实施安乐死，一般不会受到法律的追究。指导原则规定：患者正在经受极大的痛苦，没有治愈的可能，患者一再请求实施安乐死。另外，必须由另外一位医生证明一切都符合上述条件；病员死亡必须向公安机关报告。

是否应该允许医生剥夺他人的生命呢?齐思·范·万德尔的医生威尔弗雷·德范·奥仁医生谈了自己对这个问题的看法：

“实施安乐死与我计划用机关枪杀一大群人不能等同，要是那样，我觉得是最恶毒不过的杀人方式了。作为医生，我这样做与用机关枪杀人绝对不同。我关心人，尽力不让他们太受罪，实施安乐死完全是另一回事。”

但许多人坚决反对实施安乐死。“反对安乐死，实施保健护理”组织主席安德鲁·福格森说：“绝大多数实施安乐死的病例中，患者实际上在要求别的东西，他们可能是想让保健医护人员替他们与自己心爱的人或家人沟通——几乎是每个问题的背后总有另外别的问题存在。”

英国晚期病人收容院有着优良的传统，他们专门护理临终病人，照顾他们的特殊要求。英国国家收容院理事会主席，收容运动的发起人西西莉·桑德斯争辩说，安乐死将看护临终病人的方法置之度外。此外，她还担心允许安乐死会使要求护理和得到人们广泛关怀的念头减少。“在今天的社会里，这会让老年人、残病人和依靠别人生活的人容易感到自己是负担，因此，他们感到应该从生活中消失掉。我认为任何允许合法地缩短人的生命的事情，肯定会让人们更加脆弱”。

许多人认为剥夺个人死亡之权是生硬专横的。尽管他们赞同生命重要，应该得到尊重，但他们感到生命的质量也不该忽视。奥仁医生认为，如果人们想死，他们就有选择的最基本的权力。“那些反对实施安乐死的人们告诉我的是这样的一些话：临终者没有这个权力，人们病得严重时，我们都要担心他们的死亡；但有时候死亡是个好事，在这种情况下，为什么不允许他们死呢?”但是“为什么不允许”是个可能会引起强烈反响的问题。那部反映齐思·范·万德尔死亡的片子既令人动情又令人敏感。显而易见，他的医生是他家的朋友，他的妻子也是一心想为她的丈夫好。但有人会说，用这个特殊的事例来为安乐死叫好是危险的。并非所有的病人都会受到那样的个别护理和关注。

第二部分 Text B

不公平的优势

作家瓦尔特·埃利斯是《牛津——剑桥帮》一书的作者，他认为英国仍在牛津——剑桥老同 学关系网的控制下：一个人懂什么不重要，重要的是他认识谁。他说，在牛津和剑桥两所大 学(简称牛津——剑桥)求学的少数经过严格选拔的优秀人才一开始就登上了青云之梯，几年 之后，他们便乘青云之梯登上了特权和权力的顶峰。他的研究表明，所有最好的职位仍继续由剑桥毕业生把持着，百分比不到90％，也有60％或65％。

然而，埃利斯指出，牛津——剑桥毕业生只占全英国大学毕业生的20％。另外一些研究似乎也证实了他的这一看法，即牛津——剑桥毕业生在就业市场上从一开始就拥有不公平的优势。一份新近发表的报告表明，在法律界，去年由高等法院任命的26名高级法官都上过私立学校，其中21名曾就读过牛津——剑桥。

但这能说明形成了帮派吗?英国最好的私立学校威斯敏斯特学校的前任校长约翰·雷博士对此持反对看法。

“我承认过去在英国生活的某些重要领域里存在着偏见，但现在这种偏见已不存在了。在60年代或更早的某个时期，进入牛津或剑桥大学不一定全靠学业成就。现在毫无疑问，在任何客观的观察者眼里，入牛津和剑桥大学的竞争是异常的激烈。”

然而，许多人不同意这种看法。因为尽管英国3/4以上的学生在国立大学接受教育，但去牛津——剑桥大学读书的学生的半数以上曾上过私立学校，即所谓的“公学”。这难道是私立学校的学生比那些公立学校的学生更聪明吗?或是就是比他们准备得更充分吗?

每年每个私立学校的平均费用是五仟英磅，是国立学生的两倍多。所以，如果公立学校开设的课程少得多，怎么能指望他们与私立学校竞争呢?又怎么能让学生准备好牛津大学的专门入学考试呢?这个考试需要额外的准备，为此，许多公立学校的学生一般要在校多学一个学期。

一、课文

Every teacher probably asks himself time and again: Why am I a teacher? Do the

rewards of teaching outweigh the trying moments? Answering these questions is not a

simple task. Let's see what the author says.

也许每位教师都一再问过自己：为什么选择教书作为自己的职业？教书得到的回报是否使老师的烦恼显得不值得多谈？回答这些问题并非易事。让我们看看本文的作者说了些什么。

Why I TeachPeter G. Beidler

Why do you teach? My friend asked the question when I told him that I didn't

want to be considered for an administrative position. He was puzzled that I did not

want what was obviously a "step up" toward what all Americans are taught to want

when they grow up: money and power.

我为什么当教师

彼得·G·贝德勒

你为什么要教书呢? 当我告诉一位朋友我不想谋求行政职务时，他便向我提出这一问题。所有美国人受的教育是长大成人后应该追求金钱和权力，而我却偏偏不要明明是朝这个目标“迈进”的工作，他为之大惑不解。

Certainly I don't teach because teaching is easy for me. Teaching is the most
