双重医学原则:2020何凯文每日一句第243句

今天的句子：

The Supreme Court's decisions on physician-assisted suicide carry important implications for how medicine seeks to relieve dying patients of pain and suffering.

Although it ruled that there is no constitutional right to physician-assisted suicide, the Court in effect supported the medical principle of "double effect, "a centuries-old moral principle holding that an action having two effects — a good one that is intended and a harmful one that is foreseen — is permissible if the actor intends only the good effect.

Doctors have used that principle in recent years to justify using high doses of morphine to control terminally ill patients' pain, even though increasing dosages will eventually kill the patient.

56. From the first three paragraphs, we learn that ________.

[A] doctors used to increase drug dosages to control their patients' pain

[B] it is still illegal for doctors to help the dying end their lives

[C] the Supreme Court strongly opposes physician-assisted suicide

[D] patients have no constitutional right to commit suicide

解析：

1 .The Supreme Court's decisions on physician-assisted suicide carry important implications for how medicine seeks to relieve dying patients of pain and suffering.

句子结构：

A carries important implications for B

A 对于B意义重大;

A= The Supreme Court's decisions on physician-assisted suicide

B= how medicine seeks to relieve dying patients of pain and suffering

参考译文：虽然法院作出裁决，在医生协助下的自杀并不具备宪法权利，但是法庭实际在支持一种双重效果的医学原则。这是一种有几百年历史的道德原则，这种原则认为：一种行为有两种效果，一种是好的，想要达到的效果，一种是有害的可以预见的效果，如果行为人只想达到好的效果，那么这种行为就是可被允许的。

(这是目前世界上对这个句子最清晰的解析!)

3 .Doctors have used that principle in recent years to justify using high doses of morphine to control terminally ill patients' pain, /even though increasing dosages will eventually kill the patient.

参考译文：最近几年，医生都在使用这种原则来证明使用大剂量的吗啡来控制绝症病人的疼痛是正当的，即使增加剂量会最终杀了病人。

56. From the first three paragraphs, we learn that ________.

[A] doctors used to increase drug dosages to control their patients' pain

第三句中说了: have used (现在完成时)选项是(used to)过去常常，所以排除。

[B] it is still illegal for doctors to help the dying end their lives

第二句的个小分句说了: there is no constitutional right= illegal;

doctors to help the dying end their lives= physician-assisted suicide

完美的同意替换!正确答案!

[C] the Supreme Court strongly opposes physician-assisted suicide

法院并没有强烈的反对!第二句第二个小分句说明法庭其实在支持!

[D] patients have no constitutional right to commit suicide

病人没有“在医生协助下自杀的权利”

但是病人有自杀的权利，所以这个选项是偷换！
