Would you be shocked to find out an average of 18 people die every day due to the shortage of available organ donors? Due to the cultural differences, Chinese are much less willing to donate their organs compared to people in other countries, with the ratio being only 6 out of 10,000,000. Would you register to be an organ donor given the scarcity of organs? The following are opinions from different sides. Read the excerpts carefully and write your response in about 300 words, in which you should:
1. summarize briefly the opinions from different sides;
2. give your comment.

Firm donors
MisterPanda (France) : I have my organ donor card in France, and couldn’t find anything similar in China. Giving your organs after your death is not even a sacrifice: you won’t miss any organ. And if the idea of saving a complete stranger’s life does not appeal to you, imagine that, should everyone give their organs, a complete stranger’s organ could save one of your loved ones’ life.
BlondeAmber (Ireland) : In my home country I carry an organ donation card, signed by my next of kin to make sure there is no problem after my death. I would donate parts such as the kidney, bone marrow or whatever to family members if required during my lifetime—the greatest possibility for a match is found between family members. After death—I am dead so why should I care?
Allforlove (the UK): Yes, I certainly would donate my organs for transplant. In fact, eight years ago my youngest child died tragically at the age of 12, and we donated his organs for transplant. Four other children survived because of the donation, which has been a great source of comfort to my family. Why not allow other people to use them? After all they are no good to you anymore. If someone had been able to save my son with an organ donation, I would have been so grateful for the gift.
Li Yingqi (China) : Absolutely yes. I would like to donate my organs after I die. Since the organs would be of no use to me anymore then why not use them to help others. However, I don’t want to donate my organs while I’m still alive, or to phrase it in another way, to donate organs while I’m still living sounds a little bit scary.
Donation objectors
Susan (China) : I don’t want to donate my organs. I cannot imagine the situation when they take most of my organs while I’m alive. And how will I survive in the afterlife without my organs? I need the support of the organs to sustain my afterlife.
Cuteboy (the UK) : The problem is that the doctors don’t work quite hard at saving you (or don’t try things to save you in case that lessens the possibility of using your organs for transplant) , because there is some good that can come of your dying.
Hail China! (Australia) : In Australia they used to ask you at the RTA when you renewed your license. But my father has never been an organ donor because he thinks that if he ever gets into an accident and he is an organ donor the hospital may try to harvest his organs instead of saving him. Maybe there are more people like my dad.
Conditional donor
Teamkrejados (France): I would donate organs to my family if they really need them. For example, if my grandson needed a kidney... But I would only donate internal organs, such as the liver, kidney or heart. I’m not donating the eyes, skin or brain. I couldn’t imagine the situation when my body is dismembered.

答案
Would You Register to Be an Organ Donor? We used to be filled with sympathy and empathy at the headlines about patients who died due to the shortage of available transplant organs. However, when it comes to the question of organ donation, people disagree with each other. Many donation supporters apply for an organ donation card, which is more common in western countries and means they will definitely donate their organs after their deaths. The belief that backs up their firmness is that they believe the body is useless after death. Another belief is that it brings them great comfort when their organs could save others’ lives and vice versa. But certainly there are some who are against the donation. They feel scared because the doctors will take their organs away while they are still alive, instead of working hard at saving them actively. There are also some other conditional donors, who would donate only their internal organs or donate only to their families. I think I do understand those donation objectors and people should respect one’s personal will. But I would like to register to be an organ donor given the scarcity of organs for the following reasons; First, organ donation means that your value doesn’t end with the end of your life. Isn’t that the meaning of life to maximize one’s personal value to your family, other people or the world? Isn’t that another way of lasting your life? Second, it is the greatest mercy to save others’ lives. Body is like a machine. It is a big waste to discard and destroy every part of it when the parts are still in good condition just because your breath stops. The value of the organ should also be maximized, shouldn’t it? Third, putting yourself in others’ shoes, I would also like one to donate his organ to me if I am in urgent need. Do to others what you expect they do to you. In summary, organ donation is a choice that great minds would make. But there’s still a long way to go to build up the awareness of people on organ donation. Moderate publicity and proper guidance are needed on this subject.
