我们怎么办？范文Mercy killi ng is one of the most con troversial issues in the world of medici ne. As the picture give n above depicts, a late-stage cancer patie nt is term in ally-ill, asking the doctors for mercy killing. But the doctors look deeply embarrassed, feeling helpless because they are at a loss what to do about it.The picture really sets me thinkin g. It implies that people differ in theirattitudes towards the mercy killi ng. Some people think that physicia n-assistedsuicide can relieve dying patie nts of un bearable pain and sufferi ng. They maintainthat as long as a doctor prescribes a drug for a legitimate medical purpose, he hasdone nothing illegal even if the patie nt uses the drug to haste n death. Others arestron gly opposed to physicia n-assisted suicide. They contend that a doctor has noright to give a patient sufficient medication to control his pain if that may hasten death. They conclude that it is illegal for doctors to help the dying end their lives.As far as I'm concerned, doctors have a duty to help dying patients to alleviate their pain and suffering. I also agree that doctors deserve to be punished if theyprolong the needless suffering of their terminally-ill patients. In short, I am infavor of mercy killing. (207 words)译文：安乐死是医学界最有争议的问题之一。

ቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱ国“安乐死”立法之路
由于安乐死的问题比较复杂，涉及道德、伦理、 法律、医学等诸多方面，中国尚未为之立法。
我国“安乐死”代表案例
1986年到2003年17年中，陕西第三印染厂的一名普通职 工王明成两度因为安乐死问题成为全国媒体关注的新闻人 物。1986年，王明成的母亲夏素文病危，王明成不愿母 亲忍受临终前的病痛，要求大夫对母亲实行了安乐死。 1987年，陕西汉中市检察院以故意杀人罪将王明成和大 夫蒲连升刑事拘留，这是我国的第一例安乐死案件。 1992年，最高人民法院批示，安乐死的定性问题有待立 法解决，就本案的具体情节，对蒲、王行为不做犯罪处理。 2003年六月，王明成被诊断为胃癌晚期。王明成正式提 出安乐死的请求，但被西安交大第二医院以我国尚未立法 为由拒绝了。

不自愿的安乐死(Involuntary Euthanasia)
安乐死合法化及其相关问题探究
安乐死合法化及其相关问题探究安乐死合法化及其相关问题探究作者：宁夏⽯嘴⼭赵锋引⾔：“⽣还是死，这是⼀个值得考虑的问题。
”2007年两会期间，⼀位默默⽆闻的宁夏⼥孩李燕成为了社会争论的焦点，究其原因，是这位从⼩就得了被医学界称之为“超级癌症”的“进⾏性肌营养不良症”的⼥孩，在两会期间，把《安乐死申请议案》发到了央视记者的博客⾥，明确表达了⾃⼰想以安乐死的⽅式得到解脱，请求这位记者将⾃⼰的《安乐死申请议案》交到⼈⼤代表⼿⾥。
于是，围绕着这位“热爱⽣命但是不愿活”的⼥孩，安乐死再⼀次成为社会争论的焦点。
从⼈类拥有智慧懂得思考的时候起，⽣与死就成为了⼈类思考的重⼤问题。
在医疗科技⾼度发达的现代，毫⽆疑问，⼈类征服疾病的能⼒已经⼤⼤提⾼。
然⽽这种提⾼却不能⼀概⽽论，在⼀些情况下，医疗技术可以帮助病⼈战胜病魔，减轻病⼈的痛苦；但在另外⼀些情况下，医疗技术并不能攻克疾患，只是提⾼了病⼈与之相持的能⼒使其“苟延残喘”⽽已，⽽这样⼀来，许多⾝患绝症的病⼈要忍受⼏年甚⾄是⼏⼗年病痛折磨后才踏⼊死亡的⼤门。
所以说现代医疗科技在延长⽣命的同时，也在增加着痛苦和延长着死亡。
正是⾯对⼈类医疗技术永远不会⾄善⾄美，永远不会⽆限延长⼈类的⽣命这⼀现实，⼈们才考虑另外⼀个问题：如何缩短死亡，消除病痛的折磨、死亡的恐惧以及尊严的沦丧？在这种背景下，安乐死成了病⼈唯⼀的选择。
然⽽，和⼈⽣的重⼤性⼀样，安乐死是重估⽣命价值的重要问题之⼀，涉及到医学、哲学、宗教、伦理、法律、社会、情感等⼀系列问题,于是其适法问题就成了医学界、哲学界、伦理学界、法学界争论的焦点。
本⽂着眼于在⽬前中国现⾏的法律体制下的安乐死问题提出对其是否合法及合理的讨论，研究其是否适合在中国的⼟壤⽣存的问题，解决安乐死合法化过程中所⾯临的问题。
⼀、安乐死的历史发展安乐死（Euthanasia）⼀语源⾃于希腊语“美丽的死”，“快乐的死”，⼜称安乐术，或称怜杀（Mercy killing）。
安乐死 Die With Pleasure(大学英语作文)
安乐死Die With Pleasure大学英语作文Mercy killling has been the hot issue and some animals were accepted this way of death. In some countries, mercy killing is legal for human being. When people are badly ill and have given up life, they wished to die with pleasure. Betsy Davis made her choice.安乐死一直是一个热点话题，一些动物接受了这种方式离去。
在一些国家，安乐死是合法的。
当人们病得很严重的时候，对生命已经放弃了希望，他们就希望快乐地死去。
贝特西·戴维斯就做出了自己的选择。
Betsy Davis was an artist and she suffered from ALS. After being treated for some time, she still got sick worse and worse and she had big trouble in moving, so she decided to accept mercy killing. But she was not going to die sadly, instead, she emailed her families and friends to join her good-bye party for two days, and she told them not to be sad but only with pleasure.贝特西·戴维斯是一个艺术家，她患有肌萎缩性侧索硬化症，接受一段时间治疗后，病情仍然恶化了，她难以移动，所以她决定接受安乐死。
安乐死
医学伦理学认为，所谓安乐死，就是指医务人员应濒死病人或其家属的自愿请求，通过作为或不作为，消除病人的痛苦或缩短痛苦的时间，使其安详地度过死亡阶段，结束生命。
安乐死与一般的死亡相比，应该具有这样几个特征：
（1）安乐死执行者的动机和意图必须是道德的。安乐死执行者的目的、意图和动机必须是"善意"的，是为了解除病人的痛苦。而且这种痛苦是指不堪等待自然死亡的身体的剧烈的痛苦而言，至于精神上的痛苦，如因失恋而精神沮丧、因贫困而厌世悲观等则除外。
4、阻碍医学科学的发展这是从实施安乐死的后果来考虑安乐死的弊端。反对者认为，医学之所以不断发展、进步，就在于医学家在所谓"绝症"面前不畏艰险，知难而进。而安乐死则会使这些勇于进取的医学家失去研究的对象和动力，从而会阻碍医学科学的发展。
ห้องสมุดไป่ตู้
5、违背了传统的血缘亲情观念"血浓于水"是许多民族都有的传统伦理观念。反对者认为，安乐死会使病人家属不顾亲情孝道，放任自己亲人的死亡，甚至在医师的帮助下参与结束亲人的生命，显然与这种传统美德相悖。
（二）进行死亡教育
安乐死问题之所以显得如此重大而复杂，是因为人们把死亡看作一件重大的事情。不能正确看待死亡是导致许多人盲目拒斥安乐死的主要原因之一。所以，对人们，首先是医务人员和患病人群，进行死亡教育极为重要。死亡教育可以帮助人们树立正确的死亡态度，培养良好的死亡适应心理。这是一个社会能够正确对待安乐死的重要前提条件。
（2）根据安乐死是否由病人本人提出请求，我们可以将安乐死分为自愿安乐死和非自愿安乐死。自愿安乐死是指意识清楚、有行为能力的病人或曾经意识清楚的病人自由表达了安乐死愿望的安乐死。这是在病人本人的请求下实施的安乐死。非自愿安乐死是指不是由自己表示而是由他人代为表示安乐死愿望的安乐死。
安乐死应该合法化吗
安乐死应该合法化吗？"Dying is not a crime." (死亡并不是一种罪行)-- Jack Kevorkian (杰克·凯欧克因，美国推行安乐死合法化第一人)安乐死又称无痛死亡(Mercy Killing)或医生协助自杀(Doctor-assisted Suicide)，由于涉及人类基本的生存权利，安乐死一直是一个饱含争议的话题。
目前已有一些国家从立法层面接受安乐死，但更多国家则选择了观望。
作为安乐死合法化的坚定支持者，我们来看看它是怎样论证安乐死合法化的论点的。

For this newspaper the answer is simple: the state should no more intrude on personal decisions at the close of life than at any point during it. But doctor-assisted dying is legal in only a few European countries, Colombia and four sparsely populated American states.究竟是否应当批准医生向请求安乐死的晚期病患者开具药方呢？就这份报纸来说，答案很简单：相比于生命其他阶段，国家不应该在弥留之际再干涉个人意愿。

英语-安乐死辩论赛正方和反方的观点
Mercy killing is one of the most controversial issues in the world of medicine. As the picture given above depicts, A late sick mother desperately ill son request for euthanasia. But the son was cut for this。
feeling helpless because he is at a loss what to do about it.The picture really sets me thinking. It implies that people differ in their attitudes towards the mercy killing.Some people think it is right.but others dont think so.now let us listen to everyone's different opinions安乐死是医学界最有争议的问题之一。
正如上面所示的视频所描绘的，一位晚期患病母亲病入膏肓，请求儿子实施安乐死。
但儿子且为此获罪，感到无能为力，因为他们不知道该怎么办。
这幅画确实发人深省。
它暗示，人们在对待安乐死上看法不一致。
有些人认为他是对的，但其他的不这样认为，现在让我们听听大家的不同观点赞成1.If a person loses the survivability of the community has not contributed to lose the meaning of life.reduce reliance on others and a burden on society.如果一个人失去了生存能力，对社会没有了贡献，也就失去了生命的意义，减少对别人的倚赖和对社会的负担。
安乐死应该合法化的10个原因
安乐死应该合法化的10个原因“死亡并不是一种罪行”—杰克·凯欧克因(Jack Kevorkian，美国推行安乐死合法化第一人)安乐死又名无痛死亡(Mercy Killing)或医生协助自杀(physician assisted suicide)，它源于希腊文，意为“善终”，即通过协助自杀缓解疼痛和苦难。
由于涉及人类基本的生存权利，安乐死跟其他对待生命和死亡的事情一样，也是饱含争议的话题。
已经有一些国家从立法层面接受安乐死，其中就包括美国和加拿大的一些州省。
在现代生命伦理学领域，安乐死也是饱受争议的主题和研究的热门方向之一。
美国一项调查显示，约有46%的医生认为在特定的情况下应当同意实施自愿安乐死，而41%的医生则完全持反对意见，另外的14%认为应当根据具体情况而定。
下面罗列一些关于安乐死的主要观点，重点阐释安乐死作为人类权利的原因及其带来的好处。
10.人们有选择死亡的权利关于安乐死的讨论通常围绕着生存权展开，反对者常有的说辞是：安乐死践踏了人类基本的生存权利。
他们会忽略死亡是我们人生的归宿，如果没有死亡，“生存”将无法定义。
如同黑白相对、硬币具有正反面一样，人类生命的诞生与消逝本来就是一个整体。
因此，那些支持每个人都有基本生存权利的人们还没意识到自己也同意一个观点：每个人都有选择死亡方式的基本权利。
我们可以自己决定生活的历程，我们有活得痛快的权利，我们可以规划自己生命的航向。
自然地，人类自我决定的能力也赋予我们决定如何死亡的基本权利，需要强调的是，生存的权利并不高于选择死亡的权利。
生存权和死亡权是相互独立而又相互关联的。
生存权关乎自我选择生活而死亡权关乎自我选择生活的结束，在这个意义上二者是相互排斥的。
从另一方面来看，选择死亡的权利在人们行将就木时开始。
当你活着时，你行使的是生存权；当你的生命走时到终点，你行使的是选择死亡的权利。
需要强调一点，我们这里谈论的是自杀或自然死亡而非命丧他手而被剥夺生存权利。

藏在英文里的希腊词根（十）
藏在英文里的希腊词根（十）
文 / 曾泰元*
上一期介绍的希腊词根，已经堂堂进入了第二大类“自然世界”的范畴， 不过只讲了一个 -bio-（生命；生活；生物），看似进展有限。-bio- 是一个 超大家族，派生出来的词汇非常多，占去了很多篇幅，但这不是常态。希腊词 根所派生出来的词汇，一般而言专业性偏强，常见的字眼比较少，家族普遍不大。
是一个可以独立使用的单词，指的是古希腊的城邦（city-state）。
我讲到 necropolis（大墓地）岔个题，居然一发不可收拾。我们本来走
的是 necro- 路，看到旁边的 -polis 小径落英缤纷，受到吸引走了进去，想不
到是个精彩的词语桃花源，越走越深，毫不自觉。
赶快出来，回到 necro- 这条主路。
温故知新，我们先重点复习上一期的内容： -bio-（ 生 命；生 活；生 物 ）【biology（ 生 物 学 ），aerobics（ 有 氧 运 动 ）， amphibian（两栖动物），antibiotic（抗生素），symbiosis（共生），microbe（微生物）】 自 然 世 界 有 生 有 死， 上 一 期 讲 了“ 生 ”， 这 一 期 就 从“ 死 ”（-thanas/ thanato-）讲起，这是我们“自然世界”类的第二个词根。 由浅入深。这个家族最常见的成员，当属 euthanasia（安乐死：eu-“良好”， 此处指“没有痛苦”+ -thanas“死”+ -ia“名词后缀”）。 如果人或动物罹患重病，极为痛苦又无法救治，医生采取措施令其无 痛苦地死去，就是安乐死，没有痛苦的死。安乐死除了标准字眼 euthanasia 之外，还有个俗称 mercy killing（字面“慈悲杀害”，出于慈悲，终结生物 体的生命）。euthanasia 的动词是 euthanize（使安乐死）。在大多数国家，安 乐死都还是法律所不允许的。 岔题一下。eu- 表“良好”，也是来自希腊文，形式上是个前缀，置于词首， 同时兼有实质含义，所以也是个词根。eu- 构成许多字眼，常见但有些难度， 兹举数例： eugenics（优生学：eu-“良好”+ -gen-“生”+ -ics“学问；技术”）。优 生学就是“生育”出“良好”下一代的“学问或技术”。 eulogy（颂词；悼词：eu-“良好”+ -log-“话语”+ -y“名词后缀”）。颂词、 悼词就是“好”“话”。称赞活人的好话或文章是“颂词”，对死者表示哀悼 的好话是“悼词”。 euphemism（委婉语：eu-“良好”+ -phem-“说”+ -ism“名词后缀”）。 委婉语就是一样的话往“好”处“说”，不往坏处讲，间接委婉，听起来不伤人。

安乐死 mercy killing
安乐死mercy killing
A nurse was convicted Monday and sentenced to life in prison for killing 28 of his patients at a hospital in southern Germany. 在德国南部一所医院里工作的一名护士在周一被判有罪，因谋杀了28位病人而被判终生监禁。
Stephan Letter was found guilty of 12 counts of murder, 15 of manslaughter and one of mercy killing in what has been described as Germany's biggest series of killings since World War II. 斯坦芬·莱特犯有12宗谋杀罪，15宗过失杀人罪1宗安乐死致人死亡罪。
此案被认为是二战后德国最严重的系列谋杀案。
“安乐死”通常有两种表达，euthanasia和mercy killing，前者源于希腊语，意思是无痛苦的、幸福的死亡，常见于医学和法律文件。
相比而言，mercy killing更常用于日常会话。
此外，医生所采用的assisted suicide（辅助自杀）也属于安乐死的范畴。
看下面一个例句：
Mr Smith indicted for the mercy killing of his incurable son.
史密斯先生被指控通过安乐死杀死他患有绝症的儿子。
一个医学生对安乐死的思考
一个医学生对安乐死的思考我对安乐死的了解源于冯小刚的电影《非诚勿扰2》。
影片中李香山身患绝症，他担心自己会死得很惨，于是他的好友秦奋承诺，帮他“有尊严的”死去。
最后，李香山在秦奋的帮助下，跳海了结生命。
对于影片中秦奋的行为是否构成“故意杀人”的质疑，四川多元律师事务所的徐小中律师表示：“秦奋的行为绝对不是‘故意杀人’。
”他认为，秦奋主观上没有杀人的动机，他和李香山是挚友，客观上没有杀人的行为。
对于他是否是“间接故意杀人”，徐小中说：“这种情况类似安乐死，很复杂。
需要严格的法律认定和具体的细节分析。
船主其实也有管理职责问题，但也不用承担刑事责任，只是民事方面的问题。
”其实秦奋对李香山提供的是一种临终关怀。
临终关怀是一门以临终患者的生理和心理特征以及相关的医学、护理、社会、伦理等问题为研究对象的新兴交叉学科[1]，它是针对垂危患者进行的一种特殊护理。
对临终患者实施临终关怀，其目的在于减轻临终患者的心理负担，解除患者对疼痛及死亡的恐惧和不安，满足患者的生理、心理和社会的需要，在人生的最后岁月中，能在充满温情的氛围中，安详、宁静、无痛苦、舒适且有尊严地离开人世，并使其家属的身心健康得到维护和增强[2]。
1 安乐死的划分1.1 从实施者角度来看，西方医学界将安乐死分为积极安乐死和消极安乐死两种。
积极安乐死也称“主动安乐死”，美国刑法界也用“Mercy Killing”（怜杀）来表达，是指采用积极的措施去结束垂危病人弥留在痛苦之中的生命，具体做法是给病人注射毒剂，或者给服毒性药品等等。
而消极安乐死也称“被动安乐死”，可用英文“Letting die”来表达，是指停止对垂危病人的治疗措施，停止对病人的营养支持，尤其是指停止使用现代医学设备和手段抢救病人，让病人自行死亡[3,4]。
但在中国的法律中，安乐死是不允许的。
在现实生活中，对生命走向末期、忍受病痛折磨的患者，呼吸机停或不停，家属难以抉择。
“放弃抢救”实际是“放弃生命支持”，本质上隶属于“消极安乐死”范畴。
安乐死的英文作文
安乐死的英文作文英文：Euthanasia, also known as assisted suicide or mercy killing, is a controversial topic that has been debated for decades. Some people believe that individuals who are terminally ill or suffering from unbearable pain should have the right to choose to end their own lives with the help of a physician. Others argue that euthanasia goes against the sanctity of life and can lead to abuse.Personally, I believe that euthanasia should be legalized under certain circumstances. For example, if a patient has a terminal illness and is in constant pain, they should have the right to end their suffering. However, strict regulations and guidelines must be put in place to prevent abuse and ensure that the patient is making an informed decision.In my opinion, the decision to end one's own life is adeeply personal one and should not be made lightly. It is important for the patient to have access to counseling and support to help them make an informed decision. Additionally, the physician who assists with the euthanasia should be well-trained and experienced in end-of-life care.中文：安乐死，也称为协助自杀或慈悲杀死，是一个备受争议的话题，已经争论了几十年。

安乐死的翻译
安乐死的翻译安乐死1.允许人们通过取下或者撤销生命保障（医疗设备）来获得死亡是安乐死（一个希腊词语，意思为容易或者很好的死亡）的一种方式，也是在美国唯一受法律保护的最大限度的医护治疗。
出于对患有不治之症病人所遭受痛苦的关心和同情，（他人）采取安乐死（这种方式）帮助病患获得死亡。
有时安乐死被称为仁慈杀人（此处“仁慈杀人”mercy killing有的翻译就是叫安乐死，你们看着办，下面也是这样），但它的支持者们认为将仁慈杀人定义为在未经本人同意情况下结束他人的生命更为准确。
通常安乐死分为两类：被动安乐死和主动安乐死。
撤销或者取下生命保障医疗设备通常被认为是被动安乐死的一种。
而主动安乐死，有时被称为协助死亡，可以是医生给病人注射致命药物，也可以是医生为病人提供结束其生命的方法，比如医生给病人开一些用来自杀的药。
最后一种方式也被称为医生协助病人自杀。
在美国，主动安乐死被认为是谋杀或者过失杀人；然而被动安乐死却能被一些专业的医疗机构和在特定环境下的法律承认且接受。
2.安乐死是一个有争议的话题，对它的意义、实施以及道德边界有不同的解释。
那些赞成主动安乐死并且主张病人有权选择死亡的人并不认为被动安乐死和主动安乐死有什么区别。
他们坚持认为取下生命保障医疗设备与采取主动措施结束病人生命在原则上是没有区别的。
他们认为在这两种情况下，他人出于对病人的同情而结束病人生命，都引发了同样的结果。
在支持者们看来，关掉生命供给设备的开关和给病人注射致命药物在道德上是等同的行为。
3.主动安乐死的反对者们认为主动安乐死破坏了人类生命的价值和尊重；侵蚀（人们）对医生的信任；使社会对杀人行为的敏感降低；与很多人的宗教信仰相抵触。
并且，反对者们认为主动安乐死和被动安乐死的动机是完全不一样的。
在主动安乐死中，他人直接想要引起死亡并通过有效手段最终达到目的。
在被动安乐死中，他人决定不使用任何治疗手段才导致生命供给设备停止使用，接受病人因病痛而导致死亡而不是（直接）结束病人的生命。

Euthanasia
Euthanasia or mercy killing which aims to induce the painless death of a person for triggers assumed to be merciful, including four types for instance voluntary and direct, involuntary and direct, and so forth, is one of the biggest controversial issues of this decade.
People who oppose to mercy killing argue that the euthanasia interferes with laws of nature, especially to those who share sincere religious beliefs, it is a desecration to the God. Also assisted death or assisted suicide may contribute to crime of people illegally taking advantage of it to deprive other people of their life, which is disguised violation of the right to life.
When it comes to me, whereas, euthanasia helps to relieve terminally ill patient from agonizing pain, which not merely fulfills one's desire for a self-determined death but also set aside their family from the pain of having to witness torture that the patient does not need to bear. Additionly, Death as nature as birth, is sometimes a process that require assistance, and mercy killing one of such help. A case in point is that when one is under extreme suffering in the body and spirit and the overwhelming existence of life become a nightmare, assisted suicide may be a good way. Finally, when one is suffering a sever and incurable disease which we can not even cope with, euthanasia can be a choice for it being not contempt for life or moral decline, but a form of respect for life.。
