范文：

Euthanasia， a quiet and easy death， or mercy killing as we call it recently has made the headlines frequently. Many people applaud it and argue that euthanasia should be legalized.

As is pointed out， to practise euthanasia can benefit both the patient and his family. To a terminally ill person who is suffering excruciating pains day and night or living like a vegetable， to be allowed to end his life painlessly is a good release. To his family it is also a big relief considering the financial and emotional drain on them that having to sustain his life entails. However， the legalization of euthanasia may also bring with it problems our society has not previously faced. Is it humane， for example， that a terminally ill patient is thus caused to feel guilty for remaining alive because he does not want to die？ Is it wise that a patient is killed alive simply because of a mistaken terminal diagnosis？ And is it possible that euthanasia could be taken advantage of for some ulterior or even criminal purposes？

Since the legalization of euthanasia will raise serious moral and social issues， the decision our society makes about euthanasia will undoubtedly have tremendous consequences in society.

安乐死，一个安静的，容易死亡，或安乐死，因为我们称之为最近的头条新闻频繁。许多人都为之喝彩，并认为安乐死应该合法化。

正如所指出的那样，实行安乐死可以造福病人和他的家人。一个身患绝症的人谁是痛苦难以忍受的痛苦的白天和黑夜或生活之类的蔬菜，可以结束自己的生命是一个很好的无痛释放。对他的家庭来说，这也是一个很大的救济，考虑到他们的财务和情感流失，必须维持他的生活需要。但是，安乐死的合法化也可能会带来它的问题，我们的社会以前没有面对。这是人道的，例如，，一个身患绝症的病人，从而造成剩余活着而感到愧疚，因为他不想死？是它聪明，病人死亡活着只是因为对一个错误的终端诊断？它可能是安乐死可以采取一些不可告人的目的，甚至犯罪的优势？

安乐死合法化将引发严重的道德和社会问题，决定了我国社会对安乐死的决定无疑将产生巨大的社会后果。
