58. [C]意为：医师为帮助生命垂危病人摆脱痛苦而采取的致死措施。 本题是一道词义题，但是解题更多的需要涉及到文章中心词，本文第一段从澳大利亚通过的一个关于安乐死法案的新闻入手，下文全部在讨论各界对该法案的反应，同时在文章最后作者以实例表明了自己对安乐死的观点，由此我们可以确定文章的中心是关于安乐死的。而考研文章的任何一道阅读题目的命制都是和文章中心紧密相连的。据此我们可以推断出答案为C。
A意为：医师对垂危病人的同情。
B 医师对垂死病人采取的过激医疗手段。
D 医师为挽救垂危病人的生命而采取的善意的治疗。 另外“euthanasia” 所在句和下面的 In the US and Canada, where the right to die movement is gathering strength, observers are waiting for the dominoes to start falling.处于平衡位置，由此我们可以判断“euthanasia”和下句的 the right to die 大意相同,答案可

Bpretty and handsome ... ordinary-looking

Dhopeful and helpful ... careless
正确答案： A解析：
词汇题。解答词汇题最常用的方法之一就是利用对比关系，“What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein，and another person a fool?”genius的含义和fool相反，自然可以推测出brilliant的含义；“Are people born intelligent or stupid?” intelligent的意思和stupid含义相反。dull出现在“... on the other hand ... dull and unintelligent”中，dull表示不聪明。答案为A项。
