There is a lot of specialization, a great deal of 23 to the individual, a 24 a-mount of advanced technical equipment, and 25 effort not to make mistakes because of the financial risk which doctors and hospitals must 26 in the courts if they 27 things badly.
    But the Americans are in a mess. The problem is the way in 28 health care is organized and 29. 30 to pubic belief it is not just a free competition system. The private system has been joined a large public system, because private care was simply not 31 the less fortunate and the elderly.
    But even with this huge public part of the system, 32 this year will eat up 84. 5 billion dollars—more than 10 percent of the U. S. Budget—large number of Americans are left 33 These include about half the 11 million unemployed and those who fail to meet the strict limits 34 income fixed by a government trying to make savings where it can.

选项 A、looking for
B、looking into
C、looking after
D、looking over
答案C
解析 此题属于语意搭配题。look after表示“照料，照顾”，原文指私人保障体系如何对待那些不走运的人以及老年人，可见此处应选“照顾，照管”，即选项[C]looking after正确。[A]look for表示“寻找”；选项[B]look into表示“调查”；选项[D]look over表示“检查，浏览”。全句可译为：与公众的看法相反，这不仅仅是一个自由竞争体系，庞大的公共保障体系已与私人保障体系结合在一起了，因为私人保障体系惟一不保障的就是那些不太走运的人或老年人。
