安乐死英语作文

Present a written argument or case to an educated reader with no specialist knowledge of the following topic.

Now many old people are suffering from the pain from incurable illness or torture from the weakening body, so much so that many of them are no longer willing to endure this way of living and want to terminate their life and leave this world peacefully and painlessly. Some suggest helping these old people by resorting to euthanasia.

To what extent do you agree or disagree with the opinion？Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

There exist totally four ways to go —sudden death, terminal illness, organ failure and frailty. Compared with suffering from pain and weakness, it is reasonable that some elders arrange their deaths by virtue of euthanasia. Reasonability though it has, euthanasia is still a debatable point when it comes to ethical and moral problems and spirit of law.

Pitifully, she still passed away in torment. And this reminds me how important euthanasia is to cancer patients and others who is tortured by diseases and weakness. In brief, euthanasia does make sense to alleviate patients’ suffering and enable them to die peacefully.

On the other hand, however, euthanasia is deliberate murder in essence. It involves a series of ethical and moral problems which arouse heated discussion for a long time. For example, some people argue that euthanasia actually encourages those psychologically vulnerable to die rather than old and weak ones. Other people hold that euthanasia means the insignificance of life existence. For human future, there are also opinions showing concern that euthanasia will hinder the development of medical research and empowering doctors to perform euthanasia will pose a negative impact on the whole health system.

In conclusion, a large number of ethical and moral problems are supposed to be settled before euthanasia is placed on the legislative agenda. Moreover, the legitimation of euthanasia deserves serious consideration
