范文:
Euthanasia, a quiet and easy death, or “mercy killing” as we call it recently has made the headlines frequently. Many people applaud it and argue that euthanasia should be legalized.
As is pointed out, to practise euthanasia can benefit both the patient and his family. To a terminally ill person who is suffering excruciating pains day and night or living “like a vegetable”, to be allowed to end his life painlessly is a good release. To his family it is also a big relief considering the financial and emotional drain on them that having to sustain his life entails. However, the legalization of euthanasia may also bring with it problems our society has not previously faced. Is it humane, for example, that a terminally ill patient is thus caused to feel guilty for remaining alive because he does not want to die? Is it wise that a patient is killed alive simply because of a mistaken terminal diagnosis? And is it possible that euthanasia could be taken advantage of for some ulterior or even criminal purposes?
Since the legalization of euthanasia will raise serious moral and social issues, the decision our society makes about euthanasia will undoubtedly have tremendous consequences in society.
安樂死,一個安靜的,容易死亡,或“安樂死”,因為我們稱之為最近的頭條新聞頻繁。許多人都為之喝彩,并認(rèn)為安樂死應(yīng)該合法化。
正如所指出的那樣,實行安樂死可以造福病人和他的家人。一個身患絕癥的人誰是痛苦難以忍受的痛苦的白天和黑夜或生活”之類的蔬菜”,可以結(jié)束自己的生命是一個很好的無痛釋放。對他的家庭來說,這也是一個很大的救濟(jì),考慮到他們的財務(wù)和情感流失,必須維持他的生活需要。但是,安樂死的合法化也可能會帶來它的問題,我們的社會以前沒有面對。這是人道的,例如,,一個身患絕癥的病人,從而造成剩余活著而感到愧疚,因為他不想死?是它聰明,病人死亡活著只是因為對一個錯誤的終端診斷?它可能是安樂死可以采取一些不可告人的目的,甚至犯罪的優(yōu)勢?
安樂死合法化將引發(fā)嚴(yán)重的道德和社會問題,決定了我國社會對安樂死的決定無疑將產(chǎn)生巨大的社會后果。
