What’s Lacking in "Sicko"?
When it comes to economic decisions, there are always trade offs(取舍). Gain one thing and you lose something else. 【B1】______
The central argument of Michael Moore’s movie "Sicko"—that the cure to the nation health care problems is a single—payer system—is hardly novel and is certainly worth consideration, whether or not you agree with it. But in comparing the American system with single-payer plans of other countries—Britain, France, Canada and Cuba Mr. Moore left out the trade-offs, characterizing those countries as health care paradises. 【B2】______Kurt Loder, the film critic who is best known as the anchor(主持人)of "MTV News", wrote a critique (批评)of the film for MTV’s website." Sicko," he said, "does a real service" in portraying(描绘)victims of American insurance companies’-like the people, who died because their only treatment options were considered "experimental" and therefore not covered. 【B3】______
When "governments attempt to regulate the balance between a limited supply of health care and an unlimited demand for it, they’re inevitably forced to ration treatment". Mr. Loder asserted.【B4】______Mr. Loder cited the short film "Dead Meat", which presents anecdotes(轶事)of failure. In the Canadian single-payer system in its one—sidedness, "Dead Meat", might have made for a nice double feature with "Sicko, "and left movie-goers with a more complete understanding of the complications of deciding on a health care system【B5】______
This all makes an otherwise "emotionally compelling film not necessarily an intellectually satisfying one, " wrote Darren Barefoot, a Canadian blogger.(博客作者).
A. This is particularly true in health care, a market in which scarce(稀罕的)goods are ridiculously expensive, but needed by everybody.
B. Mr. Moore also decided to ignore problems in other countries, like France’s high taxes and Britain’s cash—short hospitals.
C. But the film as a whole, he concluded, is "breathtakingly meretricious(似是而非的), "in large part because of its characterizations of other countries’health care systems.
D. The problems have been noticed—and criticism is coming not just from Mr. Moore’s detractors(诋毁者).
E. He ticked off a number of negative statistics to counter the positive ones offered by Mr. Moore.
F. Health care is the prevention, treatment, and management of illness
【B1】
选项
答案
A
解析
本文第一段先讲在制定经济政策时总要面对利益取舍,第二段中讲到美国的health care(医疗护理),故第一段末应该有一句引出health care的话题,在给出的选项中,选项A讲在医疗卫生领域也存在着利益取舍的问题,所以选A。
