Read the following article in which five people talk about capital punishment and death penalty. For questions 61 to 65, match name of each speaker to one of the . statements ( A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.
Martin
The great thing about capital punishment is that fear of death deters people from committing crimes. Besides, it ensures that those who are really dangerous will neither repeat their crimes nor pass on undesirable hereditary traits to their children. In this way it protects society from many dangerous happenings.
Lynn
But any fear of the death penalty is greatly reduced by the decrease in the number of jurisdictions using it, by the uncertainty of detection, the long delays in court procedures, the decline in the number of executions, and by the nonpublic nature of executions. Statistical studies indicate that the use of the death penalty has no significant effect on either the frequency of capital crimes or the safety of law-enforcement officers.
Kent
By attaching this penalty to certain crimes, the law exerts a positive moral influence in the educational process. By strongly stigmatizing these acts, the law helps to develop attitudes of disgust and even horror for them. Besides, the deterrent influence of the death penalty reaches across state lines into jurisdictions that have abolished it, and so all are benefited by its continued use in some areas.
Fisher
Criminal should die because he has committed a horrible crime, and only his execution will satisfy the public and prevent it from taking the law into its own hands. It’s fair for those victims, especially for those who were killed by them. There is no substitute for the death penalty in giving retribution its maximum effectiveness. Without it, the criminals may soon come to see no difference between the breaking of a window and the fracturing of another’s skull.
Sherrill
The universal desire for revenge must be stopped and regulated in modern society by legal retribution if order is to be maintained. Retribution functions interrelatedly with reformation and deterrence, both of which must be expressed in terms of society’s moral code. The principal function of retribution is to support this code and thus help unify society against those who violate it.
Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements
[A] Capital punishment functions as a means of education.
[B] Capital punishment is a kind of revenge.
[C] Social security is improved by capital punishment.
[D] Revenge should not be considered as retribution.
[E] Capital punishment cannot deter crimes.
[F] Criminals deserve capital punishment.
[G] Criminals can always evade capital punishment.
Lynn
