Guess the name of the character.⇐ ПредыдущаяСтр 15 из 15
He was Chancellor to Henry VIII and a very great thinker whose writing has had a great effect on many people right up to the present day. Among his important thoughts was that the reasons for crime were to be found in economic and social conditions. He believed that if people lived in a more just and humane society they would behave better. He also thought that punishment should be sensible and that people found guilty should be made to work for the good of the community. His views were far ahead of the time, so that it was only in later centuries that his book Utopia was really understood. As a strict Roman Catholic he disapproved of Henry VIII's attempt to break away from the church in Rome and set up his own Church of England. For failing to accept Henry as the head of the English church he was tried for treason in 1535, being beheaded at the Tower of London. In 1935 he was made a saint by the Roman Catholic Church. Oswald, Lee Harvey, 1940 -1963 Complete the text with the words that mean • - to kill a person for political reasons; - an offence for which there is punishment by law; - an examination in law court; - to examine carefully. In 1963 the world was shaken by the news that President Kennedy had been (a) in Dallas, Texas, while driving from airport. The man arrested for this terrible (b) was Lee Harvey Oswald. After service in the US Marine Corps, Oswald went to the Soviet Union for a time and married a Russian girl. On returning to the United States he was for a time involved with Cuban revolutionary elements. On 22nd November 1963 he is said to have taken a rifle into the Texas Book Depository in Dallas, where he worked, and shot President Kennedy and Governor Conally of Texas as they drove past Conally survived, but the President died soon afterwards. Oswald tried to escape, shooting a policeman who tried to stop him. He was caught, but was later shot dead before he could be brought to (c) by the night-club owner Jack Ruby, who had got into the police station. The Warren Commission, which (d) the assassination, stated that Oswald had acted alone, but many people do not agree, and there are still a great many questions concerning the killing left unanswered. Guess the name of the character. One of the leaders of French Revolution, he was the mastermind behind the Reign of Terror, in which most of the opponents to the French Revolution were executed in an orgy of blood A brilliant lawyer, he became a member of the Committee of Public Safety in 1793. Though not solely responsible for the Terror, he was its strongest advocate and arranged for a change in the law, which made witnesses unnecessary at tribunal hearings. In the next seven weeks nearly 1300 people were guillotined in Paris alone. On 27th July 1794, he went too far and was expelled from the Convention. He was shot in the jaw while being arrested, and after a night of agony was taken before the tribunal, condemned as an outlaw and sent immediately to the guillotine. Part II LAW STORIES 1. The First Laws TASK 1. Read the text. Rules and laws - and the conventions or customs from which they are descended - have been a part of human life ever since our ancestors first began to live in large and settled groups. But our knowledge is vague of laws that were in effect before the invention of writing in about 3500 B.C. The earliest known legal text was written by Ur-Nammu, a king of the Mesopotamian city of Ur, in about 2100 B.C. It dealt largely with compensation for bodily injuries, and with the penalties for witchcraft and runaway slaves. TASK 2. Find in the the text the words that correspond to the following definitions. - the use of magic power, esp. with the aid of evil spirits; - punishment; - an accepted social custom or practice; - insubstantial, amorphous, indistinct, - payment for damage or loss, restitution; - discovery; - jurisprudential, deriving authority from law; - one from whom a person is descended. TASK 3. Answer the questions and prove your point of view. 1. What is the difference between a rule and a law? Give five examples of each. 2. Can a society develop without rules (laws)? 3. Which of the statements do you think is true: a) All the laws are situational. They suit only the given place at a given time. b) There is some eternal law. It is good for all times and places. TASK 4. Work in groups. Make a list of associations which arise with the word Babylon. Try to outnumber your opponents. Compare your notes. Where do your associations come from? 2. Laws of Babylon TASK 1. Give English equivalents for the following words and expressions. Consult the text after you complete the task. - кровная месть; - состоять из; - налог; - налагать штраф; - устанавливать закон; - расплата; - разборчивый, чёткий; - составлять документ; - лжесвидетель; - наследство; - храм. One of the most detailed ancient legal codes was drawn up in about 1758 B.C. by Hammurabi, a king of Babylonia. The entire code, consisting of 282 paragraphs, was carved into a great stone pillar, which was set up in a temple to the Babylonian god Marduk so that it could be read by every citizen. The pillar, lost for centuries after the fall of Babylon in the 16th century B.C., was rediscovered by a French archaeologist in 1901 amid the ruins of the Persian city of Susa. Hammurabi's words were still legible. The pillar is now in the Louvre museum in Paris. The laws laid down by Hammurabi were more extensive than any that had gone before. They covered crime, divorce and marriage, the rights of slave owners and slaves, the settlement of debts, inheritance and property contracts; there were even regulations about taxes and the prices of goods. Punishments under the code were often harsh. Not only murderers but also thieves and false accusers faced the death penalty. And a child who hit his father could expect to lose the hand that struck the blow. Nevertheless, Hammurabi's laws represented an advance on earlier tribal customs, because the penalty could not be forfeit for an eye. The code outlawed private blood feuds and banned the tradition by which a man could kidnap and keep the woman he wanted for his bride. In addition, the new laws took account of the circumstances of the offender as well as of the offence. So a lower-ranking citizen who lost a civil case would be fined less than an aristocrat in the same position - though he would also be awarded less if he won. TASK 2. Answer the questions. 1. Why do you think Hammurabi decided to have his laws carved into a pillar? 2. List the spheres of human life covered by Hammurabi's code. Explain the choice. 3. Why do you think people of different ranks were treated differently by Hammurabi's code? Sunday Blues TASK 1. Read the text. The so-called blue laws in the United States might better be called Sunday laws, because their intent has been to restrict or forbid business, trade, paid work, or other commercial activities on Sunday, the Sabbath of major Christian sects. In the mid-1980s blue laws had been repealed or simply ignored in many parts of the nation but continued to be observed in certain religious communities. Secular arguments against blue laws are that they violate the constitutional guarantee of separation of church and state and favour one religion, Christianity. A secular argument supporting them is that everybody needs a day of rest each week. Proscribing work on Sundays goes back at least to 4th-century Rome under Constantine the Great, and the practice was strictly supported in the religion-oriented American colonies. The term blue law is said to have arisen from a list of Sabbath rules printed on blue paper for residents of New Haven, Connecticut, in 1781. TASK 2. Find in the text the words that mean the opposite. - to unite; - pay attention to; - minor; - for; - to allow. TASK 3. Find in the text the words that correspond to the following definitions. - to regulate, limit; - to revoke a law; - to maintain a condition, course or action without interruption; - to comply with, infringe; - to put outside the protection of the law; - meaning, significance. 4." Let the Body Be Brought..." TASK 1. Read the text. In the United States, Britain, and many other English-speaking countries, the law of Habeas Corpus guarantees that nobody can be held in prison without trial. Habeas Corpus became law because of a wild party held in 1621 at the London home of a notoriously rowdy lady, Alice Robinson. When a constable appeared and asked her and her guests to quiet down, Mrs. Robinson allegedly swore at him so violently that he arrested her, and a local justice of the peace committed her to jail. When she was finally brought to trial, Mrs. Robinson's story of her treatment in prison caused an outcry. She had been put on a punishment diet of bread and water, forced to sleep on the bare earth, stripped, and given 50 lashes. Such treatment was barbaric even by the harsh standards of the time; what made it worse was that Mrs. Robinson was pregnant. Public anger was so great that she was acquitted, the constable who had arrested her without a warrant was himself sent to prison, and the justice of the peace was severely reprimanded. And the case, along with other similar cases, led to the passing of the Habeas Corpus Act in Britain in 1679. The law is still on the British statute books, and a version of it is used in the United States, where the law was regarded as such an important guarantee of liberty that Article 1 of the Constitution declares that Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended except in cases of " rebellion or invasion". Habeas Corpus is part of a Latin phrase - Habeas corpus ad subjiciendum - that means " Let the body be brought before the judge." In effect, a writ of Habeas Corpus is an order in the name of the people (or, in Britain, of the sovereign) to produce an imprisoned person in court at once. TASK 2 Find in the text the words that correspond to the following definitions. - an order in writing issued under seal in the name of the sovereign or of a court or judicial officer commanding or forbidding an act specified in it; - a place of enforced confinement; - the formal examination and determination by a competent tribunal of the matter at issue in a civil or criminal cause; - sanction; a document authorizing an officer to make an arrest, a search, etc.; - well-known, esp. for a specified unfavourable quality or trait; - a public expression of anger or disapproval; - a law passed by a legislative body and recorded; - jail, penitentiary; - entering the country with hostile purposes; - to compel by physical, moral or intellectual means; - to declare not guilty.

When Margaret Montgomery of Chicago died in 1959, she left her five cats and a $15, 000 trust fund for their care to a former employee, William Fields. The will stipulated that Fields was to use the trust income solely for the cats' care and feeding, including such delicacies as pot roast meat. If, however, he outlived all the cats, Fields would inherit the trust principal. Nine years later the last cat, Fat Nose, died at 20, and Fields, 79, was $15, 000 richer. Probably the largest single group of pets to be named specifically in a will were the 150 or so dogs given $4, 3 million by Eleanor Ritchey, an oil company heiress who died in 1968. The dogs were mostly strays she had collected at her 180-acre ranch in Deerfield Beach, Florida. When the last dog, Musketeer, died in June 1984, the entire estate - by then grown to nearly $12 million - went under the will to the Auburn University School of Veterinary Medicine to support research on dog diseases. Charles Vance Millar, a Canadian lawyer and financier who died a bachelor in 1926, bequeathed the bulk of his fortune to whichever Toronto women gave birth to the largest number of children in the 10 years after his death. Four women eventually tied in the " stork derby" that followed the publication of his will. Each had 9 children, and they shared between them $750, 000. A fifth woman who had 10 children was ruled out because 5 were illegitimate. One of the world's shortest wills was left by an Englishman named Dickens. Contested in 1906 but upheld by the courts, it read simply: " All for mother". A 19th-century London tavernkeeper left his property to his wife - on the condition that every year, on the anniversary of his death, she would walk barefoot to the local market, hold up a lighted candle, and confess aloud how she had nagged him. The theme of the confession was that if her tongue had been shorter, her husband's days would have been longer. If she failed to keep the appointment, she was to receive no more than £ 20 a year, just enough to live on. Whether the wife decided to take the bigger bequest or spare herself humiliation is not known. TASK 2. Work in pairs. Examine the wills. You are a lawyer of one these five -------- clients. Discuss with your client the terms of the will. The Man They Couldn't Hang TASK 1.

Complete the following text with the words from the box. force; ordinary; civil; affected; adopted; legal; dominated; studied; equals; drafted; emperor. The laws of much of continental Europe (particularly France), of Quebec in Canada, and of much of Latin America - along with the (a) laws of Louisiana - owe their modern form largely to the work of a man who never even (b) law. Napoleon Bonaparte, the Corsican soldier who became (c) of France after the French Revolution, established in 1800 five commissions to refine and organise the disparate (d) systems of France. The result, enacted in 1804, was the Napoleon's Code. Some of its original 2, 281 articles were (e) by Napoleon himself, and all were (f) by his thinking, even though he was completely self-taught in legal matters. The code was a triumphant attempt to create a legal system that treated all citizens as (g) without regard to their rank or previous privileges. It was also so clearly written that it could be read and understood by (h) people at a time when only Latin scholars could make sense of the earlier laws handed down since Roman times. The code was (i) intact in most of the areas of Europe that Napoleon 0} and spread from there across the Atlantic, taking root particularly in French-speaking American communities. Many of its principles are still in (k) today. TASK 2. Choose one of the topics and prepare a talk. 1. The main points of Napoleon's biography. 2. The great victories of Napoleon Bonaparte. 3. One hundred days of Napoleon Bonaparte. 4. Great emperor and romantic lover. 5. The legal system of France at the time of Napoleon. 6. The leaders of the French Revolution. 7.

In medieval Europe, trials were usually decided by ordeals - in which it was believed God intervened, revealing the wrongdoer and upholding the righteous. In the ordeal by water, for instance, a priest admonished the water not to accept a liar. The person whose oath was being tested was then thrown in. If he floated, his oath was deemed to have been perjured. If he was telling the truth, he might drown but his innocence was clear. In 1215, however, the Catholic Church decided that trial by ordeal was superstition, and priests were forbidden to take part. As a result, a new method of trial was needed, and the jury system emerged. At first the jury was made up of local people who could be expected to know the defendant. A jury was convened only to " say the truth" on the basis of its knowledge of local affairs. The word verdict reflects this early function; the Latin world from which it is derived, veredictum, means " truly said". It was not until centuries later that the jury assumed its modern role of deciding facts on the sole basis of what is heard in court. Today the jury system has spread to numerous other countries. Every year more than 100, 000 jury trials are held in US courts - 90 per cent of the world total. Good Men and True TASK 1. Work in groups.

G.K.Chesterton (1874-1936), the English author who created the (a) stories (b) a Roman Catholic priest named Father Brown, was also a powerful champion of the (c) of traditional (d) sense. After serving as a (e) himself, Chesterton wrote an essay in which he summed up the (fj of the jury system in this way: " Our civilisation has decided, and very (g) decided, that determining the (h) or innocence of men is a thing too important to be Ц) to trained men... When it wants a library {]), or the solar system discovered, or any (k) of that kind, it uses its specialists. But when it wishes anything done which is 0} serious, it collects 12 of the ordinary men standing round. The same thing was done, if I remember right, by the (m) of Christianity." TASK 3 Explain the allusion used by G.K.Chesterton. TASK 4. Answer the question. What does O.K. Chesterton approve of in the way the jury is selected? TASK 5. Work in groups Discuss the question.

Ratified in January 1919, the 18th Amendment to the US Constitution prohibited " the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors" within the United States. A little less than 15 years later, the 21st Amendment repealed Prohibition. Viewed as a triumph of morality by its backers, Prohibition forced a double standard on many tippling politicians, among them the next US president, Warren G.Harding. As a senator in 1919, he had spearheaded passage in the Senate of some tough laws to enforce the 18th Amendment. Two years later Harding brought many of his drinking buddies with him as advisers into the White House. TASK 2. Find in the text the words that correspond to the following definitions. - to end, cancel, revoke (a law); - supporters; - severe or uncompromisingly determined; - to cause (a rule or law) to be carried out effectively; - persons who give recommendations, information, warning; - to approve or confirm formally; - to serve as leader or leading force of companions, partners; - to forbid by authority; - an action of getting approval by legislature; - being obsessed by alcoholic drinks; - change or revision; - a person experienced or engaged in politics; - the large-scale making of wares by hand or by machinery. Silent Witness TASK 1. Read the text. A slander case in Thailand was once settled by a witness who said nothing at all. According to the memoirs of Justice Gerald Sparrow, a 20th century British barrister who served as a judge in Bangkok, the case involved two rival Chinese merchants, Pu Lin and Swee Ho. Pu Lin had stated sneeringly at a party that Swee Ho's new wife, Li Bua, was merely a decoration to show how rich her husband was. Swee Ho, he said, could no longer " please the ladies". Swee Ho sued for slander, claiming Li Bua was his wife in every sense -and he won his case, along with substantial damages, without a word of evidence being taken. Swee Ho's lawyer simply put the blushing bride in the witness box. She had decorative, gold-painted fingernails, to be sure, but she was also quite obviously pregnant. TASK 2. Find in the text the words that correspond to the following definitions. - the utterance of false charges which do damage to another's reputation; - a lawyer who has the right to plead as an advocate in an English superior court; - sb. who tries to compete with and be superior to another; - considerable in quantity; significantly large; - information used (by a tribunal) to arrive at the truth; - an enclosure in which a witness testifies in court.

In July 1981 a tortoise was (a) for murder, (b) in Kyuasini, a village in Kenya, formally (c) the tortoise because they (d) it of causing the death of six people, (e) through magic. However, because none of the villagers was prepared to risk the tortoise's (f) by (g) the (h). it was (i) instead. The tortoise was later freed after the government promised an official (j) into the deaths. Part III TOM SAWYER TESTIFIES TASKl. Read the text. At last the sleepy atmosphere of the village was stirred and vigorously: Muff Potter was being tried for the alleged murder of Dr. Robinson. It became the absorbing topic of village talk immediately. Tom knew that he was not suspected of knowing anything about the murder, but every reference to it sent a shudder to his heart. His dreams at night were full of horrors. In the daytime he was drawn to the courtroom by an almost irresistible impulse to go in, but he forced himself to stay out. Tom kept his ears open, but invariably heard distressing news: Indian Joe's evidence was unshaken and there was not the slightest doubt that Muff Potter would be-convicted. On Friday morning all the village flocked to the courthouse for it was to be the last day of the trial. After a long wait the jury took their places; shortly afterwards Potter, pale, timid and hopeless, was brought in, with chains upon him, and seated where all the curious eyes could stare at him. Then the Judge arrived, and the opening of the court was proclaimed. Now a witness was called who testified that he had found Muff Potter washing in the brook at an early hour of the morning that the murder was discovered and that Potter immediately sneaked away. The next witness proved the finding of the knife near the corpse. A third witness swore that he had often seen the knife in Potter's possession. Several witnesses testified to Potter's guilty behaviour when he had been brought to the scene of the murder. But they were all allowed to leave the stand without being cross-examined by Potter's lawyer. The perplexity and dissatisfaction of the house were expressed in murmurs and provoked a reproof from the Judge. A groan escaped from poor Potter, and he put his face in his hands and rocked his body to and fro, while a painful silence reigned in the courtroom. Many men were moved, and many women's compassion testified itself in tears. Counsel for the defence rose and asked the Judge for permission to call Thomas Sawyer as a witness for the defence. Tom rose and took his place upon the stand. Every eye fastened itself on him as the oath was being administered. " Thomas Sawyer, where were you on the seventeenth of June, about the hour of midnight? " Tom glanced at Indian Joe's iron face and his tongue failed him. After a few moments, however, he managed to put enough strength into his voice so that he could be heard by part of the house. Tom was asked to speak up a little louder and to tell the court about everything that occurred that night without skipping anything. Tom was also asked not to mention his companion's name as the latter would be produced at the proper time. Tom began - hesitatingly at first, but as he warmed to his subject, his words flowed more easily; in a little while only his voice was heard; every eye was fixed upon him; the audience hung upon his lips rapt in the ghastly fascination of the tale. Tom said that he had been hidden behind the elms in the graveyard. He confessed a trifle shyly that he had taken a dead cat with him to the graveyard. Potter's lawyer added that the skeleton of the cat would be produced as evidence. There was a ripple of laughter when the dead cat was mentioned, but it was checked by the Judge. The strain of the audience reached its climax when Tom began describing the fight in the graveyard. The audience heard that Dr. Robinson had been killed by Indian Joe with Muff Potter's knife while Potter lay unconscious on the ground. Crash! Quick as lightning, Indian Joe sprang for a window, tore his way through all opposers, and was gone! Tom was a glittering hero once more - the pet of the old, the envy of the young. His name was even immortalized in print, for the village paper magnified him. There were some that believed that he would be elected President yet, if he escaped hanging. Tom's days were days of splendour and exultation for him, but his nights were seasons of horror. His dreams were infested by Indian Joe, and always with doom in his eyes. Half the time Tom was afraid that Indian Joe would never be captured; the other half he was afraid he would be. Daily Tom was made happy by Muff Potter's gratitude, but nightly he was sorry that he had not sealed up his tongue. Rewards had been offered, the country had been scoured, but no Indian Joe was found. The slow days drifted on, and each left behind it a slightly lightened weight of apprehension.
