问题 下面的短文有5 处空白,短文后有6 个句子,其 中 5 个取自短文,请根据短文内容将其分别放回原有位置,以恢复文章原貌。 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. ____________(1) The central argument of Michael Moore’s movie “ Sicko” 一 that the cure to the nation’s 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 一 Britain, France, Canada and Cuba — Mr. Moore left out the trade-offs, characterizing those countries as health care paradises. ____________ ( 2 ) 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. ____________ (3) 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. ____________(4) 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 moviegoers with a more complete understanding of the complications of deciding on a health care system. ____________ (5) This all makes an otherwise “ emotionally compelling film not necessarily an intellectually satisfying one," wrote Darren Barefoot,a Canadian blogger (博客作者). (4)
选项 A Mr. Moore also decided to ignore problems in other countries, like France’s high taxes and Britain’s cash-short hospitals. B 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. C The problems have been noticed — and criticism is coming not just from Mr. Moore’s detractors (诋毁者). D He ticked off a number of negative statistics to counter the positive ones offered by Mr.Moore. E Health care is the prevention, treatment, and management of illness. F This is particularly true in health care,a market in which scarce (稀罕的)goods are ridiculously expensive, but needed by everybody.
答案 D
