死刑之我见 My View on the Death Penalty

In recent years, the deathpenalty has been aroused people’s attention and the heated discussions towardsit are right on their ways.

近年来，死刑引起了人们的关注，而且对于死刑的讨论正在热烈进行着。

On the one hand, some people hold that the death penaltyshould not be canceled. They arguethat the death penalty can act as a threat or a limitation for the criminals. Ifthe death penalty is canceled, the criminals will be more cruel and crazy, andthat will be a bigger threat for people. In addition, cancelling the deathpenalty will weaken the effect of our laws.

一方面，有些人认为死刑不应该取消。他们讨论认为死刑可以作为对罪犯的威胁或限制。如果取消了死刑，罪犯会更加残酷，更加疯狂，这将是对人们的更大威胁。此外，取消死刑会削弱法律的作用。

On the other hand, some people considerthat the death penalty should be canceled. They point out that no matter whatthe criminals have done, they are still human beings. Each life is precious andwe should respect each life. Besides, we should give another chance for thecriminals to remedy their mistakes and amend themselves.

另一方面，有些人认为死刑应该取消。他们指出，不管罪犯做了什么，他们终究还是人。生命都是宝贵的，我们应该尊重每一条生命。此外，我们应该给罪犯一个弥补过错，改过自新的机会。

Taking above into consideration, I aminclined to agree with the former. I suggest that we should remain the deathpenalty. Although the latter is right in some extent, I do not agree that thosewho murder deliberately should be forgiven and pardoned. 

综上所述，我倾向于同意前者的观点。我建议保留死刑。虽然后者有一定的道理，但是我不认为故意杀人的人应该被原谅，被赦免。
