[简答题]Recent attempts by the US government to write its documents in “plain English” show just how important it is to express ideas clearly in words.
US citizens and businesses have long complained that many of the government’s rules are written in overly technical, complicated language.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has particularly been the subject of much criticism and debate.
This agency makes and enforces rules to ensure employee health and safety on the job. The problem is, even after reading the rules several times, employees often don’t know what is expected of them.
Some politicians then began to speak out, saying the agency needed to make its regulations more “user-friendly.” One congressman complained employees needed “an interpreter to explain the OSHA regulations.” Others added while large corporations could pay specialists to help them understand the rules, smaller businesses were left in an almost hopeless situation.

[单项选择]Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play it until their hands were burnt away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear did not, a child would burn itself again and again, because fear would not warn it to keep away from the fire that had burn it before. A really fearless soldier—and some do exist—is not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.
