(1) A cassette deck plays an audio tape from the woman who died Tuesday and she is asked, "How do you feel about dying?" "I’m looking forward to it." Two days before her death, an 80-year old cancer patient made this audio tape. She said she was suffering, and no longer able to do things she enjoyed, such as gardening in her back yard.
(2) The unidentified woman says, "Somebody saying that I — to sit in a chair, waiting to die — that’s not right, because I was always able to get around and do things and now suddenly I’m in a position I can’t even walk very good and I have trouble breathing."
(3) Tuesday evening, in the presence of family members in her home, the still unidentified woman swallowed a lethal dose of drugs.
(4) Barbara Goombs Lee says, "She took some medication that prevented any nausea and vomiting. She took her dose, the lethal dose of medication. She followed it with a shot of brandy and she fell asleep almost immediately."
(5) The killing dose of barbiturates was legally prescribed by a doctor. Under Oregon’s law, first in the nation, doctors may assist a patient to kill him or herself if that patient makes it clear that’s what they want and if they have less than six months to live. The woman talked with three physicians before finding one to help her die.
(6) Barbara Coombs Lee says, "Her original attending physician said he was not interested in participating and so she went to another attending physician. She actually went to a third attending physician because the second person, although was not opposed, he was not actually willing to meet her needs as she saw them."
(7) Coombs did not attend the suicide. But she has been a leading advocate for Oregon’s death with dignity act, passed by voters in 1994, and overwhelmingly reaffirmed in a ballot measure last November. Oregon’s Roman Catholic church fought the law.
(8) Archbishop John Vlazny says, "We are very fearful more people are going to feel that what we are trying to tell them it’s better to die than to burden us with your weakened life. That’s a great fear I personally have."
(9) It’s been five months since Oregon’s Death with Dignity law took effect. This is the first suicide to be reported under the law. The report led to disclosure of still another, doctor-assisted death. A woman told the Portland newspaper, The Oregonian, that a family member suffering from cancer killed herself prior to Tuesday’s suicide.
The Death with Dignity Act has been passed in___________.
选项
A、every state of the U.S.A.
B、many states of the U.S.A.
C、Oregon only
D、none of the above
答案
D
解析
推断题。最大的干扰项是选项C,因第五段中出现“first in the nation”,补充说明了俄勒冈州是美国第一个通过此法令的州,但是全文并没有明确指出法令现在已经在多少个州内获得通过,所以不能判断,正确答案应该是选项D。
