法律英语口语试题及答案整理为什么理应废除死刑有这样几个理由：死刑是一个有缺；9.Todiscusstheimportance；Mirandawarningisawarning；Mirandawarningguranteest；Mirandawarningalsomeanst；thiswarningrestrainsthep；米兰达警告：在刑事犯罪嫌疑人被询问之前，警察将其；米兰达警告为什么理应废除死刑有这样几个理由：死刑是一个有缺陷的机制。
证据表明，刑事司法系统（CJS）充斥着错误、贪官污吏和有缺陷的做法，但这个系统是仍然被授权作为执行死刑的机构。
事实上，很多死囚被宣布无罪，仅在2003年就包括12例，这警示我们该系统需要大修。
从道德的角度来说：在很多情况下，关于死刑的道德争论集中在―以眼还眼‖，或―以命抵命‖的经营理念。
这个论点主张死刑的道义上的公正地惩罚死罪。
不过，真正的道德问题应该是是否有人有资格说应由谁生谁死。
以另一个人的生命通过一种犯罪行为，或者通过死刑是错误的。
在绝大部分情况下，已被判处死刑的罪犯被保留了生命。
不过，具有讽刺意味的是，一个理应重视人的生命社会，却剥夺一个杀人犯的生命，而这个刑事司法系统有可能对无辜的人执行死刑？就费用来说：死囚监狱需要比囚犯监狱最为更昂贵的安全设施。
这种说法是真实的。
预审和审判死刑案件的成本远远大于非死刑案件。
此外，死刑案件的上诉和再审的成本是天文数字。
省下来的钱应该花在预防犯罪方案和教育，重塑，回到发展经济，而不是花费数十亿美元在全国范围内谴责罪犯死刑，判处终身监禁的囚犯。
9. To discuss the importance of Miranda warning (P62)Miranda warning is a warning that is required to be given by police in the United States to criminal suspects in police custody before they are interrogated to inform them abouttheir constitutional rights. It includes the right toremain silent; being clearly informed of that anything the personsays will be used against that person in court; the right to consult with an attorney and to have that attorney present during questioning, if he or she is indigent, an attorneywill be provided at no cost to represent her or him.Miranda warning gurantees the constitutional rightscitizens have during the criminal investigating process.Those rights are mainly from the fifth and sixth amendments.Miranda warning also means the confession made by the suspects cannot be used as the evidence in court to make a sentence. Therefore,this warning restrains the police from using illegal methods through undue process to investigate the crime and to get confession from suspects.米兰达警告：在刑事犯罪嫌疑人被询问之前，警察将其羁押时应该告诉他们的宪法权利。
内容包括：有权保持沉默；但其说的每一句话都将作为呈堂证供；有权咨询律师，包括在其被询问的过程中律师也能够在场。
如果嫌疑人没有钱请律师，也会为他免费请代理律师。
米兰达警告保证了公民在刑事犯罪调查过程中的宪法权利，主要是宪法修正案五和修正案六中的权利。
米兰达警告同时也意味着嫌疑人的供述不能作为法庭审判的依据。
所以，米兰达警告限制了警察用非法的诉讼程序去调查犯罪以及从嫌疑人出得到供述。
10. To discuss the function of voir dire （P89）The voir dire is the process used to select a jury.The prospective jurors are questioned about their backgrounds and potential biases before being chosen to siton a jury. The function is to select a jury acceptable to both sides. Jurors are excluded by one or two methods：preemptory challenge and the challenge for cause. Jurors are excluded who1) have already formed an opinion about the guilt or innocence of the accused;2) are related to any of the parties or legal actors in the case;3) are physically or mentally impaired to the extent that the impairment will interfere with their decision-making process or4) are otherwise considered to be incapable of remaining impartial until the case is presented.There are no limits to the number challenges for cause that either side may employ.Actually one of the unspoken purposes of the voir direfor the attorneys to get a feel for the personalities and likely views of the people on the jury panel.陪审团资格审查程序是用来选择一个合格的陪审团。
在被选择成为一个真正的陪审团成员之前，准陪审员们被询问关于他们的背景和潜在的偏见的问题。
陪审团资格审查程序的功能是选择一个能够被双方当事人接受的陪审团。
排除不符合条件的准陪审员是通过一个或者两个办法，即无因回避和有因回避。
被排除的陪审员是以下几种人：（1）已经形成一个关于控告是否有罪或者无罪的观点的人（2）和本案中任何一方当事人相关系或者法律问题参与者相关系的（3）以前在生理上和精神上受到过伤害的人，从某种水准上来说，这种伤害会干预到他们的决策过程（4从其他方面来说，是那些被认为不能保持公正直到案件被呈报的人。
这里没有限制对于任何一方可能被雇佣的有因回避的数量。
事实上，陪审团资格审查程序不言而喻的目的之一是对于律师来说能够得到一种对于他们的人格和可能的观点被采纳而且出现在陪审团成员的名单中的满足感。
11. on what do you think it is proper for the appellate courts to focus? (p19)(你认为上诉法院应该如何合理行使权力?)The exercise of appellate jurisdiction is to review the action of the lower judicial tribunals of the state. Actually,the scope of judicial review which the court exercises in such cases is relatively narrow;it does notretry the case on the merits,and it does not substitute its idea of justice for those of the trial court;what it does is to review the record of the proceedings to determine whether or not the lower court committed error on its procedure or in applying the substantive law to the facts of the case.(行使上诉管辖权的法院职责即接收下级州司法审判机关的上诉。
事实上，这些法院在上诉案件上的司法审查权限是相对狭窄的。
它不对上诉案件的事实曲直实行重审，也并不完全*一审法院做出的审判意见；它要所的是检查一审法院的审判记录来判定是否下级法院有在程序和具体案件事实的法律适用上存有错误。
)In my view,it is proper to restrict the functions of appellate court in the law applying and procedureaspects,instead of consuming another period of time to retry the case,which leads to a waste of judicial resources and failure to give its full attention to the novel and socially important controversies.This funtion may also better protect the appellate review right of each individual involved in the case.(在我看来，应该限制上诉法院在法律适用和程序等方面的权限，而非耗费时间实行重新审理，这样会导致司法资源的浪费而忽视新的真正重要的社会矛盾。
