seeks to
a harmful one
hasten death
as long as
A. how medicine【T13】______ relieve dying patients of pain and suffering
B. you can risk your patient’s suicide【T14】______ you don’t intend their suicide.
C. if that might【T15】______
D. a good one that is intended and【T16】______ that is foreseen
The Supreme Court’s decisions on physician-assisted suicide carry important implications for【T17】______ .
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—【T18】______ —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.
Nancy Dubler, director of Montefiore Medical Center, contends that the principle will shield doctors who "until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain【T19】______ . "
George Annas, chair of the health law department at Boston University, maintains that, as long as a doctor prescribes a drug for a legitimate medical purpose, the doctor has done nothing illegal even if the patient uses the drug to hasten death. "It’s like surgery,’’ he says, "We don’t call those deaths homicides because the doctors didn’t intend to kill their patients, although they risked their death. If you’re a physician,【T20】______ . "
【T20】
选项
A、
B、
C、
D、
答案
B
解析
根据语境可知,空格所在句的意思应为:尽管最高法院裁定宪法没有赋予医生协助病人自杀的权力,但是,最高法院事实上支持“双重效应”的医疗准则,这条履行了数百年的医疗道德准则认为:假如一种行为具有两种效应——有以治病为目的的良好效应又有可预测的不利效应——但为了实现这一良好效应,医生被允许实施治疗且不用考虑其不利效应。所以,B项符合题意。
