It is difficult to define the term “law” because law is related to and closely interwoven with so many aspects of
7、our life and it can mean so many different things to different people.

10、lation has to be considered as a source of law in addition to general Acts of Parliament, but it is subordinate to general Acts ofParliament. 2. When statute law does not cover a particular area or when the law is silent generally it will be necessary for a court that decides cases relating tosuch a
11、n area to determine what the law is. When the court determines the applicable law, it inescapably and unarguably creates law.3. As the highest court in the land, the House of Lords can create or extend the common law. Its active stance is shown by a relatively contemporary example in which it overru

23、owever, when the judgment was entered on 30 July, the judge assessed the plaintiffs damages without taking into consideration the plaintiffs prospect of remarriage as if the 1971 Act which was to come into effect on 1 August were already in force.4. Because the judges thought Parliament had ordained
24、 that up to that date, 1st August 1971, the law was to remain as before. In the first ruling, thejudge applied the 1971 Act which had not yet come into force. Thus the decision was wrong and contrary to law. It ordered the defendant to pay money which, in law, the defendant could not lawfully be ord

The four principal legal systems in the world are Romano-Germanic (civil law), common l
30、aw, socialist law, and Islamic law.2. The Romano-Germanic systems predominate in Europe, in most of the former colonies of France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Belgium, and in countries that have westernized their legal systems in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.3. Common-law systems
31、are predominant in English-speaking countries.4. Islamic systems are found in the Middle East and some other parts of the world to which Islamic religion has spread.5. Socialist legal systems prevail in the Peoples Republic of China, Vietnam, Cuba, and North Korea.6. The Romano-Germanic law has deve
32、loped on the basis of Roman civil law. The foundation of this system is the compilation of rules made in the sixth century A.D. under the Roman emperor Justinian. They are contained in the Code of Justinian and have evolved essentially as private law. After the fall of the Roman Empire, the Code of
33、Justinian competed with the customary law of the Germanic tribes that had invaded Europe. The code was reintroduced in law schoolcurricula between A.D. 1100 and 1200 in northern Europe, then spread to other parts of the continent. Roman law thus coexisted with the local systems throughout Europe up
34、to the seventeenth century. In the nineteenth century, the Napoleonic codes, and subsequently, the code of the new German Empire of 1900 and the Swiss code of 1907, are examples of the institutionalization of this legal system.7. Common law is “judge-made” law while Romano-Germanic law is enacted la
35、w. The divisions of the common law, its concepts, substance, structure, legal culture, vocabulary, and the methods of the common-law lawyers and judges are very different from those of the Roman-Germanic, or civil, law systems.8. The three objectives of classical socialist law are: First, law must p
36、rovide for national security. Second, law has the economic task of developing production and distribution of goods on the basis of socialist principles so that everyone will be provided for according to his needs. The third goal is that of education: to overcome selfish and antisocial tendencies tha
37、t were brought about by a heritage of centuries of poor economic organization.9. The source of socialist law is legislation. Socialist law rejects the idea of separation of powers. The central notion of socialist law is the notion of ownership. Socialist law is unique with respect to “socialist” own
38、ership, of which there are two versions: collective and state. 10. Islamic law is derived from four principal sources. They include the Koran, the word of God as given to the Prophet. This is the principal source of Islamic law. The second source is the Sunna, which are the sayings, acts, and allowa
39、nces of the Prophet as recorded by reliable sources in the Tradition (Hadith). The third is judicial consensus; like precedent in common law, it is based on historical consensus of qualified legal scholars, and it limits the discretion of the individual judge. Analogical reasoning is the fourth prim
40、ary source of Islamic law. Vocabularya-9 b-11 c-15 d-14 e-17 f-10 g-16 h-19 i-1 j-6 k-2 l-18 m-3 n-4 o-7 p-5 q-12 r-8 s-13Paraphrase 1. Today, most European countries have national codes, and these codes have developed on the basis of both customary and Roman law. As a result, their legal systems be
41、long to the Romano-Germanic legal systems.2. Although it has many forms, if we look at the history, we can find thatthe origin of the socialist legal system is the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution. This revolution produced the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.3. According to their ideal, they must stren
42、gthen and increase the power of the state so that they can prevent attacks on the socialist state and make sure that different nations can exist at the same time peacefully. 4. The third is judicial agreement; like precedent in common law, it is based on the collective opinions that qualified legal
43、scholars agreed upon in history, and when the individual judge makes a decision, he has to consider those opinions.5. In the same way, if a female and a male have been hurt in the same crime, the female would get half the compensation a male would receive, since a male has the right to get an inheri
44、tance which is twice that of female.EXERCISESBlank Filling1. enactment 2. statutes 3. predominated 4. inflicted 5. doctrine 6. consensus 7. precedent 8. consolidated 9. discretion 10. integralError Correction 1. dealing in dealing with2. like alike3. alternate alternative4. rises arises 5. insist fo

Generally speaking, the legal system in new China develops by imitating thatof th
47、e former Soviet Union and is therefore a socialist one. However, if we lookinto history we can still find traces of the Roman tradition.5. In China, court verdict, including that of the Supreme Peoples Court, has no binding power over the later verdict of other courts. Judges usually make their verdict based on promulgated laws.Topics for DiscussionA. First make a comparison between “judge made”
