Mathilda had been ill for three days. Mother had given her some medicine, but it didn"t to any good. So she had to ask the doctor come. Since some students had got diphtheria in the school to which Mathilda went and two of them had already died. The doctor, arriving at Wilson"s, would first examine Mathilda"s throat. No matter how they coaxed , she didn"t open her mouth. So the doctor had to get the wooden tongue depressor between her teeth. Mathilda, however, reduced it to splinters. In order to protect Mathilda herself and other children, the doctor had to make clear whether she had diphtheria or not , so that he could cure it in time. Therefore, he asked Mathilda"s father to hold both her wrists ,and he himself forced the child to open her mouth. And there it was - she really had diphtheria. The story sets us thinking of this question that not everything can depend on willingness in life and it is necessary to use some force under certain circumstances.


Book One: Lesson 4 生死由你

课后练习答案
A.
1. Yes. In Holland, mercy-killing is accepted by medical establishment and openly practiced a few thousand times each year.

It"s now very urgent to make laws on euthanasia. Most countries prohibit euthanasia. In these countries, euthanasia is secretly practiced by doctors. But some countries , Holland , for example , openly practice euthanasia. More and more countries are debating on legalizing euthanasia.

If euthanasia is legalized, however, it my pose a danger- someone may use euthanasia to murder. In a word, euthanasia is a question that can"t be dodged.

American women have made great contr

ibutions to the American development, but they have been suffering from many kinds of prejudice because of their sex. In politics, they do all the tedious details that make the difference between victory and defeat, but have little chance to reach higher positions while men reap the rewards. In economy, most women do the lower-paying , dead-end jobs and they are invariably paid less than a man for the same job. Many Americans do not admit that it is prejudice, only saying that it is a division of labor. Many women are even content with their roles as second class citizens. So the author says that it will be a long and hard struggle if women want to get real equality
