the day started. but when i look at my freshly made bed, i have to admit it: i smile a little. i feel just a bit more motivated. productive, even. but sticking to a budget? that part is still up for

forces you to help someone in danger. but many chinese are discovering that some of these injured people are scammers. they accuse good samaritans(好心人) of having knocked them over in the first place, and they file complaints in hopes of receiving large amounts of compensation.there are frequent reports on such incidents and following disputes. on sept 8, a new case happened in huainan, anhui province. yuan chen, a 20-year-old college student from huainan normal university, claimed that she helped an injured elderly woman on the street. but the womans family has demanded that yuan take full responsibilities for the injuries.since the incident happened in the security cameras blind spot, both sides are looking for witnesses to clear their names. the local police department is also investigating the case. but how can you possibly solve a case like this, where the only evidence comes from two conflicting viewpoints?“this kind of cases should follow the principle of the burden of proof lies with the person making the claim,” ye lin, a law professor from renmin university of china, told china central television. the burden of proof means the collection of proof or evidence. in civil cases, “if you accuse someone of causing you harm or losses, you should collect convincing proof to back your claim,” said ye. “if you cannot do that, the law will not be able to support your claim.”the law may not resolve all the problems, however. some elderly people choose to blackmail(敲诈) their helpers because they do not have health insurance. to prevent this, the country needs to put in place a better social security net.32. which of the following statements is true according to the first paragraph? a.conscience is troublesome because it compels you to help someone who will set you up in return. b. sometimes the warm-hearted are wrongly accused of having knocked others over.c.it is advisable for chinese people to turn a blind eye to someone in danger.d. theres no doubt that

someone who can call out their names.b. both sides are in search of evidence that can clarify their opinions.c. both sides are in search of evidence that can wash away their crimes.d. both sides are in search of someone who can prove they are telling the truth.34. what can we infer from ye lin, the law professors words?a. ye lin thinks it is yuan chen who is responsible for gathering proof.b. in civil cases, the accused should collect proof as well to reject the claim.c. the principle regards the accused as innocent until convincing proof can be provided.d. since it is hard to collect convincing proof, both sides should take on the responsibility.35. what is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?a. to make comments on this hot social phenomenon.b. to emphasize the necessity of an improved social security system.c. to analyze deep causes of the elderly blackmailing their helpers.d. to illustrate the impact brought about by the blackmail on our
