Priorities
E".ampl.
Buying a car
n f course,
U the first
priority is price, I'd
like to boy a cheap
model with cash, so I
wouldn ' t have
borrow any money, if
possible, I'm willing to buy an old
car to get the best bargain, Design and make ' are also
important factors ' to me, And you know gas is gelling
expensive these days, so everybody is concerned about
mileage,' I like compact' cars be<ause they are economical
in terms of' taxes, gas, insurance, etc. Another oovantage is
that thieves are NEVER interested in small cars.

such a person could use Ihe poYJeT of the presidency' to

~ irs t I would give he r many reasons why living

they a re ge tt ing older and weake r. and more lonely. We also
have a moral responsibility to support them. Bul if she still
didn"1 accept my reasons. I would let he r llve with our
children and I would live with my parents by myself. I can',
let my parents live alone. because they need someone to
take care of them, They sacrificed everything to bring me
up. and now it's my turn ' to support them .

Answer
ii;!) n faci. many countries have done lIv.'ay with' capital
I punishment. The odd' thing is that it does not
make any difference al all. The various kinds o f crimes
~m to
committed in any given sociely remain hllrly' constant.' If
murders were common before the death penalty was
removed. they continue to occur al II similar rate. If
kidnappings ' hardly ever happened. they don"t suddenly
Increase JUSI because of the removal of Ihe alleged '
deterrence' Ihat the dealh penalty represents. Laws need 10
be fairly and effectively enforced ' to avert ' rising crime
rates. but the actUllI nature of the punishment doesn 'l seem
10 make much difference .

Q2) What do you think is the most he inous ' c rime?
AI) There are many. For e xa mple. mugging. ' fraud, '
vandalism ' and murder.
A2) The worst crime is torture.' I think. It destroys victims·
minds as well as their bodies. It makes people confess to
things they are innocent of and forces them to abandon '
their most deeply cherished principles. Even if people
survive to rture. its effects stay with them their entire lives.
Rape ' is another heinous c rime we often overlook. ' It
demolishes ' a woman·s (and sometimes. also, a man 's) self-
respect. But society o ften blames the victims of rape, rather
than the rapists themselves.

hund red mental-health professionals. My toIle. was
scheduled to follow those of a n u mber o f promine n t'
psychiatrists. ' When my turn carne, [ was especially
nervous, because the speale.er before me hod been
part icula rly impressive and charming. As [ approached
the podium,' my heart pounded ' and my mouth went
completely dry. What am [ doing herer I asked myself.
Making mailers worse, my p resentation ' dealt partly with
the fear of public speaking. To calm myself, I tried an
unconventiona l' tacHc. ' [ asked the audie nce, How
many of you feel nervous when you give a
speech? Nearly every hand went up.
Well, that's exactly how [ feel
right now! T he audience
responded with laugh ter. I
relaxed and was ab le to
move easily Into my
presentation.
