    问答题
    The On-going Debate over Healthcare Reform  It seems that the government’s so-called Blue Ribbon Commission has already decided what plan it will propose without undertaking any public consultation and is now merely engaged in a PR campaign to convince us they have the answer.  This seems a little head over heels to us. Since it is our money and our health that is in question, shouldn’t we have been consulted at the break about which way we want to go?  There are several models to achieve healthcare reform, and not all of them require us to hand more money over to keep government bureaucrats in big offices. Purely private healthcare may have big problems—but so does the socialised medicine the commission is recommending.  For example, Canada’s universal system of socialised medicine is now busily engaged in transferring costs from the public to the private sector… by reducing covered expenses, by de-insuring some expenses and so on.  Medical authorities are on record as saying that in an effort to manage costs, hospital stays are being shortened (or even dispensed with altogether).  So while we in the Bahamas are citing universal ‘free’ health care as the answer to our problems, in Canada there is an uncoordinated scramble by the public system to reduce and offload the effects of rising health care costs. And we won’t even mention the litany of complaints from users who have to wait for poor service.  But what mostly concerns us about the Blue Ribbon Commission is that they have plumped for social health insurance without determining the cost of their recommended programmer, or of the alternatives.  And they do not seem to have taken into account the impact this plan will have on the fiscal deficit or on our individual pockets. Apparently, the position is that whatever the cost, this is the plan that will be presented to parliament.  An initiative so far-reaching and so potentially damaging to our economy, should require more careful assessment of the alternatives in public. There is always more than one way to skin a cat. And we do not believe that a small group of consultants constitutes ‘the public’.

    关于医疗改革的争论仍在继续 看来政府所谓的特别委员会还未曾征询公众的意见,就已经决定了要向政府建议实行哪一项医疗改革计划。现在,他们只需要搞一场公关活动,说服我们相信他们的决定就行了。
    然而,对我们而言,这样的做法似乎有点搞颠倒了。医疗改革关系到我们的金钱和健康,难道不应该首先问问我们想怎么改吗?
    医疗改革的模式有好几种,并不是每种模式都需要我们投入更多的钱,好让那些政府官僚舒舒服服地坐在宽敞的办公室里。医疗卫生完全私有化也许会有大问题,但是委员会所推荐的公费医疗制也一样问题重重。
    例如,加拿大的全民公费医疗体制现正通过缩小公费医疗项目的范围以及限制保险等方式尽可能地将公费医疗的费用转移到私人承担部分。
    该国医疗当局公开宣布,为了解决资金问题,患者住院的时间正逐步缩短,将来甚至还会完全取消住院这一项。
    当我们还在巴哈马群岛采用全民“免费”医疗体制作为医疗改革的方向时,加拿大的公共体制关于降低、抵消不断上升的医疗成本的争论早已此起彼伏了,更不用说那些满腹牢骚的患者了,他们苦苦等来的只是劣质的医疗服务。
    不过我们最关心的问题还是,特选委员会虽然已经投票赞成公费医疗保险制度,可他们并没有搞清楚这种改革方案或是其他方案到底需要多少资金。
    而且他们似乎也没有考虑过这样的计划将会对国家的财政赤字或是我们个人的腰包产生什么样的影响。显而易见,现在的情况就是,无论要花多少钱,提交给国会的方案就是这个了。
    像这样一个影响范围如此之广,而且可能对我国经济造成巨大损失的提案,应该由公众对它及其他可供选择的方案进行更为谨慎的评估。解决问题的办法从来都不只一个。我们可不认为一小撮顾问的意见就可以代表“公众”的意见。

    We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.

    “You could win prizes,’’our teacher told US as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing,“The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster. ”

    We studied the board critically. Some of US looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard,rocking the sheets to the fight or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten—dollar grand prize,each and every one of US. I'm going to spend mine on candies,one hopeful would announce,while another practiced looking serious,wise and rich.

    Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of US used big designs,and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one comer of our poster and let the space draw the viewer's attention to it. Some of US would wander past the good students’ desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the soil they seemed especially fond of。making all of US believe we had a fair chance,and then always—always—rewarding the same old winners.

    I believe I drew a sailboat,but I can’t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen,and then I turned it in.

    Minutes passed.

    No one came along to give me the grand prize,and then someone distracted me,and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.

    I was still sitting at my desk,thinking,What poster? When the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me.

    46. What was the teacher's requirement for the poster?

    A. It must appear in time.

    B. It must be done in class.

    C. It must be done on a construction sheet.

    D. It must include the words on the blackboard.


    正确答案:D
    【解析】细节理解题。由第二段末句,老师说的话You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster可知。

  • 第17题:

    We experience a burst of pleasure when we share our thoughts,and this drives us to communlcate.It is a useful feature of our brain,because it ensures that knowledge,experience and ideas do not get buried with the person who first had them,and that as a society we benefit from the products of many minds.Of course,in order for that to happen,merely sharing is not enough.We need to cause a reaction.Each time we share our opinions and knowledge,it is with the intention of having an impact on others.Here's the problem,though:we approach this task from inside our own heads.When attempting to create impact,we reflect on what is persuasive to us,our state of mind.our desires and our goals.But if we want to affect the behaviours and beliefs of the person in front of us,we need to understand what goes on inside their head.


    答案:
    解析:
    我们在分享自己的想法时会感到一阵愉悦.正是这种感觉驱使我们进行交流。我们大脑的这个特点非常有用.因为它保证了知识、经验和想法不会随着它们最初的拥有者而遭到埋没;我们作为一个社会,则能从许多聪明人的成果中受益。当然,要使这种情况发生,单纯的分享是不够的。我们需要引起一个反应。我们每次分享自己的意见和知识时,正是抱着对他人施加影响的目的。但这正是问题所在:我们从自己的内心出发处理这件事情。当我们试图造成影响时,我们回想对我们具有说服力的东西.我们的精神状态,我们的渴望以及我们的目标。但我们如果想影响我们面前这个人的行为和想法,却需要理解他们的脑子里在想什么。
