The mental health movement in the
United States began with a period of considerable enlightenment. Dorothea Dix
was shocked to find the mentally ill in jails and almshouses and crusaded for
the establishment of asylums in which people could receive human care in
hospital-like environments and treatment which might help restore them to
sanity. By the mid 1800s, 20 states had established asylums, but during the late
1800s and early 1900s, in the face of economic depression, legislatures were
unable to appropriate sufficient funds for decent care. Asylums became
overcrowded and prison-like. Additionally, patients were more resistant to
treatment than the pioneers in the mental health field had anticipated, and
security and restraint were needed to protect .patients and others. Mental
institutions became frightening and depressing places in which the rights of
patients were all but forgotten. These conditions continued
until after World War Ⅱ. At that time, new treatments were discovered for some
major mental illnesses theretofore considered untreatable (penicillin for
syphilis of the brain and insulin treatment for schizophrenia and depressions),
and a succession of books, motion pictures, and newspaper exposés called
attention to the plight of the mentally ill. Improvements were made and Dr.
David Vail's Humane Practices Program is a beacon for today. But changes were
slow in coming until the early 1960s. At that time, the Civil Rights movement
led lawyers to investigate America's prisons, which were disproportionately
populated by blacks, and they in turn followed prisoners into the only
institutions that were worse than the prisons the hospitals for the criminally
insane. The prisons were filled with angry young men who, encouraged by legal
support, were quick to demand their rights. The hospitals for the criminally
insane, by contrast, were populated with people who were considered "crazy" and
who were often kept obediently in their place through the use of severe bodily
restraints and large doses of major tranquilizers. The young cadre of public
interest lawyers liked their role in the mental hospitals. The lawyers found a
population that was both passive and easy to champion. These were, after all,
people who, unlike criminals, had done nothing wrong. And in many states, they
were being kept in horrendous institutions, an injustice, which once exposed,
was bound to shock the public and, particularly, the judicial conscience.
Patients' rights groups successfully encouraged reform by lobbying in state
legislatures. Judicial interventions have had some definite
positive effects, but there is growing awareness that courts cannot provide the
standards and the review mechanisms that assure good patient care. The details
of providing day-to-day care simply cannot be mandated by a court, so it is time
to take from the courts the responsibility for delivery of mental health care
and assurance of patient rights and return it to the state mental healty
administrators to whom the mandate was originally given. Though it is a
difficult task, administrators must undertake to write rules and standards and
to provide the training and surveillance to assure that treatment is given and
patient rights are respected.

In this capacity, they make the information clearer and more understandable and help readers to coordinate fresh information 22 the knowledge they already have 23 they can relate it to personal circumstances. Science journalism also means making readers curious and entertaining them. Entertainment is the most successful didactic form. Journalists supply readers 24 material for further education and opinion-formation, because, in a society 25 terms like growth, market economy and full employment are filled with new meanings and basic technical innovations such as microelectronics and genetic engineering effect social changes, continuing education is a political necessity. The science journalist also makes 26 to the reader fields of knowledge hitherto 27 to him, conveys the fascination of science and 28 readers to follow discussions and controversies between experts. Do the popular science publications accomplish all this?

单选题1 When, in the age of automation, man searches for a worker to do the tedious, un pleasant jobs that are impossible to mechanize, he may very profitably consider the ape. If we tackled the problem of breeding for brains with as much as enthusiasm as we de vote to breeding dogs of surrealistic shapes, we could eventually produce assorted models of useful primates, ranging in size from the gorilla down to the baboon, each adapted to a special kind of work. It is not putting too much strain on the imagination to assume that ge neticists could produce a super-ape, able to understand some scores of words, and capable of being trained for such jobs as picking fruit, cleaning up the litter in parks, shining shoes, collecting garbage, doing household chores, and even baby-sitting though I have known some babies I would not care to trust with a valuable ape). Apes could do many jobs, such as cleaning streets and the more repetitive types of ag ricultural work, without supervision, though they might need protection from those ex ceptional specimens of Homo sapiens who think it amusing to tease or bully anything they consider lower on the evolutionary ladder. For other tasks, such as delivering papers and laboring on the docks, our man-ape would have to work under human overseers; and, in cidentally, I would love to see the finale of the twenty-first century version of the Water front in which the honest but hairy hero will drum on his chest after--literally taking the wicked labor leader apart. Once a supply of nonhuman workers becomes available, a whole range of low IQ jobs could be thankfully relinquished by mankind, to its great mental and physical advan tage. What is more, one of the problems which has plagued so many fictional Utopias would be avoided. There would be none of the deridingly subhuman Epsilons of Huxley's Brave New World to act as a permanent reproach to society, for there is a profound moral difference between breeding sub-men and super-apes, though the end products are much the same. The first would introduce a form of slavery, the second would be a biological tri umph which could benefit both men and animals.
