YES
During the advancement of human knowledge, animals that are used for experimentation play a significant role and make great contributions to human being.
By using animals, people can do the experiments that are dangerous to decrease the lost of failure and get some practical data to confirm or fine down the theory.
Using animals for experimentation is not killing them cruelly, but meaningful to the whole society.
NO
The majority of animal experiments do not contribute to improving human health, and the value of the role that animal experimentation plays in most medical advances is questionable.
Many of these tests are not even required by law, and they often produce inaccurate or misleading results.
Using animals for experimentation is a cruel and barbaric behavior.

答案     For many people, the issue of using animals for science is black and white: either very pro-animal rights, or very much in favor of using animals since we are the highest level creature. On the one hand, some people say that subjecting animals to pain

解析     第一段,作者首先承认在是否可以把动物用于科学试验这个问题上存在明显分歧,既有人支持也有人反对。随后重点讨论了反动物试验的理由:barbaric:动物和人类一样有情感、思想和行为(feelings,thoughts and behaviors),我们应该照顾它们、尊重它们(look after them and respect them)。让动物遭受痛苦和折磨是野蛮的行为(truly barbaric)。理由二:chemical testing如果对药物的疗效不是很确定(unsure about the effects of a drug),应该进一步进行化学试验(do further chemical testing),避免用动物进行残忍的活体实验。第二段中作者讨论了另外一种观点,即应该支持动物试验。理由也有两条:理由一:safer and better lifestyle动物实验可以帮助人类测试药物、化妆品等(test drugs,cosmetics),给人类带来更安全和舒适的生活(safer and better life style)。理由二:better than testing on human有些人觉得既然一定要用活体试验,那么用猴子做实验要比用人做实验好(it is better to test the drugs on a monkey than on a person)。
    最后一段作者提出了自己的观点,认为如果是为了残忍而残忍,没有任何效果,则绝对是超出了可接受行为的范围(stepping over a boundary of acceptable behavior)。但如果研究所带来的利益是明显、实际并且有价值的(explicit,tangible and valuable),则这些试验是合理的(the research is justified)。作者表示支持。
