Only a man who hates himself and loves humanity could possibly become an actor, but to become an actor doing plays for live television is without doubt the most ghastly torture ever invented for the acting profession. So, at least, a well-known actor has stated and I am quite prepared to believe it.Consider for yourself. For one thing the unseen audience may number millions. If you forget your lines there is no hope whatsoever of being prompted and the only resource left to you is that of mouthing silently at the cameras in the vain hope that thousands of viewers will think that the fault is in their sets rather than that the actor is incompetent.There is a story told by a famous actor of his experiences in this field which gives me intense pleasure whenever I read it. The types of part he usually plays are generally somewhat stiff-upper-lip typically British parts. He was due to act in a live television show where the script was of indifferent quality, rehearsals had been sketchy and a great deal more attention had been paid to the trappings of the production than to its actual quality.He claims himself that acting live on television scares him stiff. However, on this occasion he was determined to give as good an impression as possible of the “stiff-upper-lip.” He was acting a part where the costume was fairly simple and his idea of making a “calm and collected” impression was to leave the main items (coat, briefcase and beret) in the little hut he had been assigned as a dressing room and stroll about the stage five minutes before the performance was due to start, apparently totally unprepared. This worked beautifully.Everyone naturally, from the producer to the humblest stage-hand, begged him to get ready. “Two minutes will be quite enough,” he stated calmly, puffing at an enormous cigar. Two minutes before the live show was due to start he strolled to the dressing room and tried to open the door. It was locked. He then describes himself as being changed into a gibbering nervous wreck, shouting and screaming for help. He finally went on the set with his coat on back to front and covered with wood-shavings from having had to break down the door. He forgot his lines and the cool Englishman with the iron nerve he was supposed to be playing turned into, as he describes it, a furtive little man with a dirty coat, a stammer and a nervous twitch. He has now decided that live television is not for him, a fact which will hardly surprise the reader.1.According to the author, what kind of person could become an actor on live television?2.The type of the part the actor usually plays is（ ）.3.The actor did not go to get his main items in advance in order to（ ）.4.In the end the Englishman the actor played on the stage must have looked（ ）.

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.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 if that might hasten death.”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, you can risk your patient’s suicide as long as you don’t intend their suicide.”On another level, many in the medical community acknowledge that the assisted-suicide debate has been fueled in part by the despair of patients for whom modem medicine has prolonged the physical agony of dying.Just three weeks before the Court’s ruling on physician-assisted suicide, the National Academy of Science (NAS) released a two-volume report, Approaching Death: Improving Care at the End of Life. It identifies the under treatment of pain and the aggressive use of “ineffectual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the period of dying” as the twin problems of end-of-life care.The profession is taking steps to require young doctors to train in hospices, to test knowledge of aggressive pain management therapies, to develop a Medicare billing code for hospital-based care, and to develop new standards for asserting and treating pain at the end of life.Annas says lawyers can play a key role in insisting that these well-meaning medical initiatives translate into better care. “Large numbers of physicians seem unconcerned with the pain their patients are needlessly and predictably suffering,” to the extent that it constitutes “systematic patient abuse.” He says medical licensing boards “must make it clear ... that painful deaths are presumptively ones that are incompletely managed and should result in license suspension.”1.From the first three paragraphs, we can learn that （ ）_.2.Which of the following statements is true according to the text?3.According to the NAS’s report, one of the problems in end-of-life care is （ ）.4.George Annas would probably agree that doctors should be punished if they （ ）.
