Text 1On 5th December, 1945, five bombers from a United States Naval Air Station left Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on a routine training flight over the Atlantic Ocean, east of Florida. A short time later the base received radio messages from the bombers (Flight 19) saying that they were lost. Then radio contact was broken. The flight didn’t return, and the planes that were sent to look for the bombers also fail to return. A massive search operation was mounted, but no trace of the missing planes or their pilots was found. They had simply and inexplicably disappeared.This event was sufficient to confirm in many people’s minds that the so-called "Devil’s Triangle", or "Bermuda Triangle"-- a section of the North Atlantic bounded roughly by Bermuda, Florida and Puerto Rico--really was haunted, and in some mysterious way was responsible for the loss of ships and planes. In all, in this area (3,900,000 square kilometres) of open sea, more than 50 ships and 20 planes have mysteriously disappeared. These include the U. S. Navy ship Cyclops in 1918 and the merchant vessel Marine Sulphur Queen in 1963. In the same year two U. S. Air Force KC 135 planes also disappeared without trace. In other words, it is not only small boats and planes that have vanished in the area, but the most modern and best equipped too.Perhaps the most dramatic shipping loss in ’the area was the U. S. Navy nuclear submarine Scorpion. This vessel, like others before her, disappeared without explanation in May, 1968. Some months later she was found on the bottom of the ocean, but the reason for her loss has not been properly explained.Many theories about the area have been proposed, and whole books have been written on the subject. It has been suggested, for example, that the disappearances are caused by unknown magnetic forces from outer space or from the bottom of the sea. There is also a theory about underwater volcanic action that affects shipping, and another that suggests the lost continent of Atlantis, which according to legend lies somewhere beneath the Atlantic, is involved.However, others state that it is more likely that there is nothing special about this imaginary triangle of water, and that it is a product of Sensational Journalism. After all, ships, Boats and planes are lost at sea in all parts of the world due to weather, mechanical failure or human error, and several of the losses are mysterious. The Marie Celeste, an American cargo boat, for example, was found in 1872 off the coast of Portugal in perfect order but with no crew on board. Their disappearances has never been explained. Did some of them mutiny and then escape Were all the crew killed by some unknown agent Did they try to escape from some danger or other We shall probably never know.However, regardless of the theories which exist about the "Bermuda Triangle", ships, boats and planes continue to travel daily through the area with great frequency, and it has not been proved that a higher percentage of accidents and losses occur in this section of the North Atlantic than in other areas of the world’s oceans. The disappearances of planes and ships in the Bermuda Triangle are probably caused by().

A. some unknown magnetic forces
B. underwater volcanic action
C. Sensational Journalism
D. something not yet known

Text 2"We mustn’t delay any longer.., swallowing is difficult... and breathing, that’s also difficult. Those muscles are weakening too.., we mustn’t delay any longer."These were the words of Dutchman .Cees Van Wendel de Joode asking his doctor to help him die. Affected with a serious disease, Van Wendel was no longer able to speak clearly and he knew there was no hope of recovery and that his condition was rapidly deteriorating.Van Wendel’s last three months of life before being given a final, lethal injection by his doctor were filmed and first shown on television last year in the Netherlands. The programme has since been bought by 20 countries and each time it is shown, it starts a nationwide debate on the subject.The Netherlands is the only country in Europe which permits euthanasia, although it is not technically legal there. However, doctors who carry out euthanasia under strict guidelines introduced by the Dutch Parliament two years ago are usually not prosecuted. The guidelines demand that the patient is experiencing extreme suffering, that there is no chance of a cure, and that the patient has made repeated requests for euthanasia. In addition to this, a second doctor must confirm that these criteria have been met and the death must be reported to the police department.Should doctors be allowed to take the lives of others Dr. Wilfred Van Oijen, Cees Van Wendel’s doctor, explains how he looks at the question:"Well, it’s not as if I’m planning to murder a crowd of people with a machine gun. In that case, killing is the worst thing I can imagine. But that’s entirely different from my work as a doctor. I care for people and I try to ensure that they don’t suffer too much. That’s a very different thing."Many people, though, are totally against the practice of euthanasia. Dr. Andrew Ferguson, Chairman of the organization Healthcare Opposed to Euthanasia, says that "In the vast majority of euthanasia cases, what the patient is actually asking for is something else. They may want a health professional to open up communication for them with their loved ones or family--there’s nearly always another question behind the question."Britain also has a strong tradition of hospices--special hospital which care only for the dying and their special needs. Cicely Saunders, president of the National Hospice Council and a founder member of the hospice movement, argues that euthanasia doesn’t take into account that there are ways of caring for the dying. She is also concerned that allowing euthanasia would undermine the need for care and consideration of a wide range of people: It’s very easy in society now for the elderly, the disabled and the dependent to feel that they are burdens, and therefore that they ought to opt out. I think that anything that legally allows the shortening of life does make those people more vulnerable."Many find this prohibition of an individual’ s right to die paternalistic. Although they agree that life is important and should be respected, they feel that the quality of life should not be ignored. Dr. Van Oijen believes that people have the fundamental fight to choose for themselves if they want’ to die: "What those people who oppose euthanasia are telling me is that dying people haven’t the right. And that when people are very ill, we are all afraid of their death. But there are situations where death is a friend. And in those cases, why not"But "why not "is a question which might cause strong emotion .The film showing Cees Van Wendel’ s death was both moving and sensitive. His doctor was clearly a family friend; his wife had only her husband’s interests at heart. Some, however, would argue that it would be dangerous to use this particular example to support the-case for euthanasia. Not all patients would receive such a high level of individual care and attention. Who is against euthanasia()

A. Dr. wilfred Van Qijen
B. Dr. Andrew Ferguson
Cicely Saunders
D. Both B and C
