The Daily Mirror has an illustrious history of campaigning, most
recently helping to persuade ministers to enact an opt-out system for
organ donation in England, as already existed in Scotland and Wales.
But I’m afraid their latest crusade is mistake. 【S1】________
Backing by, among others, trade unions and Jeremy Corbyn—for【S2】__________
whom it is official Labour policy—the paper seeks the abolition of all
parking charges at NHS hospitals in England, for patients, visitors and staff.
It is generally popular, and billed as an obvious and fair reform,
which would benefit those most in need. Unfortunately, it’s a lot more
complicated than that.
The first point to stress is what I’m not arguing against reforms to【S3】________
the way hospital parking is currently administered and charged. Which is【S4】________
regularly documented, too many systems are unwieldy and over-complex,
with many only admitting cash payments, or forcing visitors to pay in【S5】________
advance when they might have much idea how long they will stay.【S6】________
Charges can sometimes also seem unreasonably high, and there
could be an argument for imposing a cap, or perhaps systems
whereby regular visitors such as relatives of long-term patients could
avoid the fees racking on. 【S7】________
But opening up all NHS hospital car parks to free parking at any
time, for any duration, to anyone who works there or has reason to
visit? That’s a different matter together. 【S8】________
The first error is that it won’t necessarily make parking any easy,【S9】________
just hard in a different way. There are something close to 600,000 staff
at hospitals in England, and about 40,000 inpatient admissions a day.
That’s a lot of people seeking a free resource.
The other key point is that free parking is fundamental regressive, a【S10】________
subsidy to people who tend to be richer than average. The fact is that the
poorer you are, the less likely you are to drive. It is therefore better-off
patients and visitors who are more likely to take advantage of hospital parking.
【S1】
选项
答案
∧mistake—a
解析
冠词缺失。该句意为“但恐怕他们最近的改革运动是一个错误。”mistake是可数名词,所以在文章中第一次出现时前面要有不定冠词a修饰。
