each blank only. (12 points, 0.5 point for each)

Many doctors working on the battlefield of terminal suffering think that only squeamishness demands a 1 difference between passive and active euthanasia on request. Their 2 for

killing goes like this: one of a doctor's 3 is to prevent suffering; sometimes that is all there

is left for him to do, and killing is the only way to do it. There is nothing new in this view. When Hippocrates 4 his oath for doctors, which explicitly rules 5 active killing, most other

Greek doctors and thinkers disagreed with his 6 .

The women's magazines are about one third 7 to clothes, one third to mild comment 8 sex,

and the 9 third to recipes and pictures of handsome salads, desserts, and main 10 .

“Institutes”exist to experiment and tell housewives how to cook attractive meals and how to turn leftovers into 11 of art. The food thus pictured looks 12 famous paintings of still life.

The only trouble is it's tasteless.

One of the greatest and most 13 criticisms of television has been that in 14 to the

largest audience possible, it neglects minority audiences and minority tastes. This is still 15 true.

But there is, perhaps, one program a day and many, of course, on Sunday which an intelligent man

or woman can enjoy and 16 interest from. In my trips east or west or north or south, I pick

up the 17 paper to find this enjoyment or interest—18 vain.

American individualism, on the 19 of it an admirable philosophy, wishes to manifest itself

in independence of the community. You don't share things in 20 ; you have your own things.

A family's strength is signalized by its possessions. Herein lies a 21 . For the desire for possessions must eventually mean dependence on possessions. Freedom is slavery. Once let

the 22 instinct burgeon, and there are ruggedly individual forces 23 too ready to make

it come to full and monstrous 24 . New appetites are invented; what to the European are

bizarre luxuries become, to the American, plain necessities.

Read the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items Ⅳ, V and Ⅵ.

(1) Freedom's challenge in the Atomic Age is a sobering topic. We are facing today a strange new

world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it. What are we going to do with

one of our most precious possessions, freedom? The world we know, our Western world,

began with something as new as the conquest of space.

(2) Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom. Before that there was no freedom. There

were great civilizations, splendid empires, but no freedom anywhere. Egypt, Babylon, Nineveh,

3

…………………………………………………………精品自学考试资料推荐………………………………………………

were all tyrannies, one immensely powerful man ruling over helpless masses. In Greece, in

Athens, a little city in a little country, there were no helpless masses, and a time came when

the Athenians were led by a great man who did not want to be powerful. Absolute obedience to

the ruler was what the leaders of the empires insisted on. Athens said no, there must never be

absolute obedience to a man except in war. There must be willing obedience to what is good

for all. Pericles, the great Athenian statesman, said: “We are a free government, but we obey

the laws, more especially those which protect the oppressed, and the unwritten laws which, if broken, bring shame.”

(3) Athenians willingly obeyed the written laws which they themselves passed, and the unwritten, which must be obeyed if free men live together. They must show each other kindness and pity

and the many qualities without which life would be intolerable except to a hermit in the desert.

The Athenians never thought that a man was free if he could do what he wanted. A man was

free if he was self-controlled. To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom. They

were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair. Each one felt responsible for

the welfare of Athens, not because it was imposed on him from the outside, but because the

city was his pride and his safety. The creed of the first free government in the world was

liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state.

This was the conception that underlay the lofty reach of Greek genius.

(4) But discovering freedom is not like discovering atomic bombs. It cannot be discovered once

for all. If people do not prize it, and work for it, it will depart. Eternal vigilance is its price.

Athens changed. It was a change that took place unnoticed though it was of the utmost

importance, a spiritual change which penetrated the whole state. It had been the Athenians'

pride and joy to give to their city. That they could get material benefits from her never entered

their minds. There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as

an employer who paid her citizens for doing her work. Now instead of men giving to their

state, the state was to give to them. What the people wanted was a government which would

provide a comfortable life for them; and with this as the foremost object, ideas of freedom and

self-reliance and responsibility were obscured to the point of disappearing. Athens was more

and more looked on as a cooperative business possessed of great wealth in which all citizens

had a right to share.

(5) She reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility.

There could be only one result. If men insisted on being free from the burden of

self-dependence and responsibility for the common good, they would cease to be free. Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom. It is to be had on no other terms. Athens, the Athens of Ancient Greece, refused responsibility, she reached the end of freedom

and was never to have it again.

(6) But, “the excellent becomes the permanent,”Aristotle said. Athens lost freedom forever, but freedom was not lost forever for the world. A great American statesman, James Madison, in or

4

…………………………………………………………精品自学考试资料推荐………………………………………………

near the year 1776 A.D. referred to “the capacity of mankind for self-government”. No doubt

he had not an idea that he was speaking Greek. Athens was not in the farthest background of

his mind, but once a great and good idea has dawned upon man, it is never completely lost.

The Atomic Age cannot destroy it. Somehow in this or that man's thought such an idea lives

though unconsidered by the world of action. One can never be sure that it is not on the point of breaking out into action, only sure that it will do so sometime.

自考高级英语上册课后练习答案

F . Man's alien! ion span is very short- In order to capture a viewer's attention, television must provide constant stimulation through variety, novelty, action and movement. In doing so, news is rather short, and it results in inefficient communication; much of the news is like "machine-gunning with scraps", and it destroys the coherence of thought. The TV's appeal to the short attention span is decivilizing as well. A voiding complexity means sacrificing thought. Among adult Americans, there are more and more "functionally illiterate" people, who even cannot answer the want ad or understand the instructions on a medicine bottle. At least, TV is partly responsible for this. Television, since its first prevalence over radio in the 1950s, has played a more and more important role in people's lives. Some are of the opinion that TV is enlightening. It has become so much a part of human life that a modern world without television is unimaginable. But I, on the other hand, argue against TV. I think TV's disadvantages outweigh its advantages. I want to draw your attention to the fact that television is decivilising. In the first place, watching TV takes too much of our time. Children rush to TV immediately after school. Some people sit in front of TV all day long. In this way, reading is entirely ignored. Do you remember the days when we had no TV? We read stories, listened to radio programs from which we benefited a lot. I dare say that the generation accompanied by TV will be less literate. In the second place, watching TV doesn't involve much thinking. When we take up reading, we need to think and imagine before we can thoroughly understand the writer. However, when we watch TV, what we have to do is to open our eyes and enjoy whatever is shown. Little by little we will become slow in thinking. F. 14F. 15 F.

Think again. Leasing can end up being just as expensive as buying. Most people think about leasing because they believe it will cost them less money. They're right-it is cheaper, but only in the short term. For example, if you were to lease anew Subaru Forester, you might pay $300 per month for the car. If you were to buy the same car, you would pay about $400 per month. Over a three-year, you would save $3600-a big savings. But after your lease is over, you have to give the car back. Many people want to lease because they can drive a more expensive car than they might otherwise be able to afford. For example, if you spend $300 monthly on a car, you might be able to lease a new Ford Explorer. For the same price, you might have to buy a used Explorer, or buy a new but much less expensive model. A lease，therefore，allows you to drive the latest models of more expensive cars. However, whatever car you can afford to buy you get to keep it, and it will always have a resell or trade-in(以新旧换)value if you want to upgrade to a new car later. Furthermore, people who lease cars are often shocked by how much they must pay when the lease is over . Most leases limit you to a certain number of miles. If you go over that, you must pay for each mile. As a result, you may end up paying thousands of dollars in mileage(里程) fees. In addition, when you lease ,you have to pay for regular maintenance and repairs to the vehicle. Since you must return the car finally, you are paying to repair someone else's car.
