Q.2 Read the passage given below carefully. (5 marks)
The idea of euthanasia, of hastening the death of someone from motives of compassion, covers two main
situations. The first is where someone is close to death and can be kept alive briefly, with intensive medical
care. The official reason for the use of every possible technique on patients, for whom there seems no hope, is
that we never know that there is no hope of at least a brief recovery.
The second situation, in which it is proposed to end the life of someone who is not expected to die at once
from natural causes, is more morally doubtful. In so far as the suggestion may be based on the notion of the
‘quality of life’ experienced by the patient, this is an inadequate approach to human beings. At one extreme
we may be dealing with a birth that cannot be called ‘human’ at all: such a being likely to live at the most for
only a few hours. The person may survive only for a very brief period .Many feel that during this time it ought
to be given ordinary nursing care. Bringing to an end of the life of say, a spastic child, who is not expected to
die, by the deliberate refusal of the fullest medical care seems morally weak.
