Passage 1
More attention was paid to the quality of production in France at the time of Ren Coty．Charles Deschanel was then the financial minister．He stressed that workmanship and quality were more important than quantity for industrial production．It would be necessary to produce quality goods for the international market to compete with those produced in other countries．The French economy needed a larger share of the international market to balance its import and export trade．
French industrial and agricultural production was still inadequate to meet the immediate needs of the people，let alone long-ranged developments．Essential imports had stretched the national credit to the breaking point．Rents were tightly controlled，but the extreme inflation affected general population most severely through the cost of food．Food costs took as much as 80 percent of the workers’ income．Wages，it is true，had risen．Extensive family allowances and benefits were paid by the state，and there was full-time and overtime employment．Taken together，these factors enabled the working class to exist but allowed them no sense of security．In this precarious（不安定的）and discouraging situation，workmen were willing to work overseas for higher wages．
The government was reluctant to let workers leave the country．It was feared that this migration of workers would deplete the labor force．The lack of qualified workers might hinder the improvement in the quality of industrial products produced．Qualified workers employed abroad would only increase the quantity of quality goods produced in foreign countries．Also the quantity of quality goods produced in France would not be able to increase as part of its qualified labor force moved to other countries．
1．According to the passage，the French workers were _____． A．willing to work overseas
B．able to save more money with the increase in his wages C．anxious to work abroad
D．often unable to find work in France
2．The French government was reluctant to let the workers leave the country，because _____． A．it would enlarge the working force
B．it would hinder the improvement of quality in industrial production C．it would hinder the increase in quantity of exports D．it would damage the imports
3．Rents in France _____． A．were extremely high B．were tightly controlled
C．took as much as 80 percent of the workers’ income D．had doubled in two years
4．According to the passage，French production _____．
A．was inadequate to meet the needs of the French people
B．was flooding the international market with inferior products
C．emphasized industrial production at the expense of agricultural production D．was enough for the local market
5．According to the passage the French government _____． A．prohibited the French workers to work abroad B．reduced taxes to fight inflation C．paid family allowances and benefits
D．prohibited the French workers to join labor unions
Passage 2
Dr．kimsma，from the Netherlands，believes that euthanasia（安乐死）is not simply a question of ending someone’s life．The important thing is how that person’s life ends．If someone chooses euthanasia，he doesn’t have to think about the worry and the suffering only．He can also focus on the things he really wants to do，such as taking a last trip，or making up a fight with someone in the family，or saying goodbye．The pressure on that person becomes lighter when he knows he won’t have to go on suffering long．Often，people who have chosen euthanasia have such peace of mind that they die naturally．
Dr．Kimsma visits his patients every day in the final period of their lives，usually at their home，where most people prefer to die．He talks to them often about various treatments and ways to relieve their pain，so that they know about all the choices，not just euthanasia．“If I ended the life of a patient because I had not given him good care，I would feel ashamed and guilty，”he said．
Dr．Kimsma admits that in the case of euthanasia there is a conflict between his goals as a doctor：saving life and helping those who are suffering．He believes that helping people is the morally right thing to do．“My patients can be sure that I will not let them suffer unnecessarily alone．That is just my goal and duty as a physician．”
However，he thinks that euthanasia should never be easy for a doctor，or for a person’s family，so that people do not begin to think of it as something ordinary．He says he can only continue to perform euthanasia because it is something that happens very rarely．
In 1996 the government of Australia’s Northern Territory passed a law allowing voluntary（自愿的）euthanasia．Peter Ravenscroft，a medical professor in Australia，suggests that this law was passed because very little care is available for patients beyond cure in the Northern Territory of Australia．
Dr．Ravenscroft holds that euthanasia is wrong．He believes that when people have an incurable illness，they should be given care that lessens their pain and suffering and helps them to feel less afraid．He says that such care should improve the quality of a person’s life，even in the
very last part of his life，without bringing death．Dr．Ravenscroft suggests that a patient should be given a drug to help him sleep for the last few days of his life，if nothing else will help him．
Ravenscroft says，“I value sitting with dying patients or holding their hands．It reminds me that life is a great mystery and we all share the characteristics of being human．We take part in all of life including dying，but we are not masters of it．”
If euthanasia is legal，it may be easier to choose death instead of continuing to look for a better treatment．Ravenscroft has had patients who lived much longer than they were expected to live，and other patients whose pain suddenly became less．If euthanasia had been available，they might have died too soon．
Ravenscroft has another reason for not making euthanasia legal．He fears that people can be persuaded to choose euthanasia when they do not really want to．He thinks it is unlikely that any law can stop this from happening．
6．Which of the following is NOT Dr．Kimsma’s opinion？_____
A．People may die peacefully in euthanasia because they feel less pressure．
B．Euthanasia allows people to focus on important personal things in the last phase of their
lives．
C．It is wrong to give up looking for a better treatment for an incurable disease． D．It is wrong to let a patient suffer when the disease is beyond cure． 7．According to Dr．Kimsma，when the two goals of a doctor conflict，_____． A．saving life of those who are sick should come first B．helping people who are suffering should come first C．it is up to his patient to make a decision D．the solution varies according to the situation
8．Dr Ravescroft is against euthanasia．One of his reasons is that _____． A．nobody really wants to end his own life B．saving life is the only goal for a doctor
C．care given to people having incurable diseases can prolong their lives D．people can be given painkillers and drugs to make them suffer less 9．By“we are not masters of it [life]，”Dr Ravenscroft means _____． A．we have no right to end a person’s life B．we can never tell what will happen to us C．life is as mysterious as death
D．life is always beyond our knowledge
10．Doctors Ravenscroft and Kimsma have opposite views on euthanasia，but many of their concerns
are similar．They agree that _____．
A．life should be respected more than anything else in the world
B．euthanasia should not be seen as an easy answer to incurable diseases C．people cannot know for sure that their pain will not get better D．the policy on euthanasia will depend on the development of medicine
