8、raise moral problem for almost everyone who comes into touch with them. Their values this cant be repeated too often are not necessarily our values.

10、s who clean up the dust, thinking we are in danger of carrying this idea of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old.

You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they will feel sure to have a try on the belief that while there s life, there s hope.

19、s with each other s support. The couple seemed to be farmers in their forties. The wife in a red coat was walking with a stick, an empty trouser leg swaying below.

21、ruck me even more was the smile they both wore on their faces, such a happy smile as could only be seen from brides and bridegrooms. With few words between them, they smilingly helped each other struggle upwards. Then I noticed there were patches on their clothes, and their cloth shoes were homemade

22、, worn-out but tidy. How could such sweet smiles reconcile(使和谐 )with the patched clothing or the physical handicap? I got quite puzzled.

23、superficial my idea of happiness had been! To me it had always been associated with wealth, fame and power, the poor and the lowly having no share of it.

It is being blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide, “The most worrying develop

29、ment is a culture of drug-friendliness,“ says the UN s International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year. The 74-page study says the pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-setter for young people of most cultures. “Some songs encourage people to take

30、 drugs. Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person s lifestyle,“ the study says. Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite the occasional shock o

31、f death by overdose(过量用药 ). “ Such incidents end to be seen as an occasion to mourn(哀悼 )the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect of drug use,“ it notes.

33、 familiar to the members of every household,“ the study says. The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug incidents, which encourages rather than prevents drug abuse. “ Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is increasingly regarded as being acceptable or even at

34、tractive,“ says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. “Powerful pressure groups run political campaigns aimed at legalizing controlled drugs,“ he says. Ghodse also points out that all these developments have created an environment which is tolerant(容忍的 )of or even favorable to drug abuse and spoils

35、international drug prevention efforts currently under way. The study focuses on demand reduction and prevention within an environment that has become tolerant of drug abuse. The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties, and to act against the pro-drug(赞成吸毒 )messages of the youth
