Reading comprehension
A. We have to accept death and the dying process. This is why palliative care does not try
to cure people with terminal illnesses, but tries to relieve symptoms, alleviate pain and
prepare relatives.
B. Drugs are not the only way to manage pain. Hospices now use a variety of other
methods. Massage, relaxation therapy, acupuncture and music can be useful too.
C. It is very hard to watch someone go through a long, painful, debilitating illness. Some
grieving relatives and other carers will help a person they love end their life, if that’s
what they want. However, in most countries this is illegal and the process of dying
takes its natural course.
D. It is not always easy to say exactly when someone is actually dead, especially now that
mechanical aides can keep patients alive artificially. But for most doctors, a person is
dead when all brain activity, breathing, metabolism and pulse have stopped.
E. Sometimes there is an autopsy after someone dies. But in most cases, post-mortem
care involves making careful records and preparing the body for a funeral. This
usually means a burial or cremation, according to religion and belief.
F. Bacteria and acids begin the process of decomposition almost immediately after death.
The body goes pale, its temperature drops, and a short time later the limbs go stiff. The
rate of decomposition varies according to climate, but a body will eventually disappear
completely.
