The classical Greeks, for example, required people who wanted to kill themselves to get permission from the senate. While this law is not without humor by todays standards, i

20、t clearly shows an awareness of the problem in times gone by. In todays society, suicide is much more prevalent than we want to admit. Why do people try to take their own lives? The motives for suicide can be categorized into areas such as failure, wrath, the need for attention, stress, and so on. H

21、owever, the qualities of a person who wants to take his own life change from person to person, making it difficult to depict (描写 ) the typical victim. To make the problem even more involved, people will often camouflage (掩盖 ) their true feelings, thus causing their friends to disregard problems that

22、 should be viewed as serious. In the US, a network of centers has been created to attempt to prevent suicides.

23、lp the callers to see that suicide as a solution to problems is an illusion. The accomplishments of these centers, insofar as their effectiveness to reduce suicide is concerned, are minimal.

29、mbered 41 through 45. 41 Many countries face a somewhat more serious economic problems in the form of an unfavorable trade balance (贸易逆差 ) with other nations. Such an imbalance exists when the total value of a countrys imports exceeds that of its exports. For example, if a country buys $250 billion

30、of products from other countries, yet sells only $100 billion of its own products overseas, its trade deficit is $150 billion. Many underdeveloped nations find themselves in this position because they lack natural resources or the industrial capacity to use these resources, and thus have to import r

32、case of a fully developed nation such as the United States, a large trade deficit is reason for alarm.
