1. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:

The death of Dr Christian Barnard, the famous transplant surgeon, has occurred at a time

when many of his modern counterparts are facing difficulties. Many of the early problems,

such as tissue rejection, have, to a great extent, now been solved, thanks to the introduction

of new drugs. However, there remains a major problem. The people in need of transplant

surgery far exceed the number of available organs. The shortage of organ donors has

caused several doctors to call for urgent improvements to be made in the system by which

organs are donated. Many countries, such as Britain, have waiting lists of people whose

lives could be saved by being given a kidney, lung, heart, or liver transplant. Sadly, many

of them die before they reach the top of those lists. Under the present British scheme,

people are asked to carry donor cards, and/or put their names on the national donor

register. Thus, if they lose their lives suddenly, for example, in a traffic accident, they have

given permission in advance of their deaths for their organs to be donated. If they have not

done so, surgeons are faced with the task of asking the distraught next-of-kin for

permission to use the organs of the deceased. Of course, often the relatives are too upset

even to think of such a thing until it is too late. Organ transplants have to take place quite

soon after the death of the donor. Dying and donating organs is not something most of us

like to think about, and only about 14% of people have registered. Now, it has been

suggested that, instead of the present register, there should be a register of people who

wish to opt out of having their organs removed for transplant surgery. Increasing the

number of donors is made more difficult because it is such an emotive issue. Just recently,

an article in the Journal of the American Medical Association showed that half of the

families in the United States refused when asked for permission to use the organs of their

loved ones.
