a fine idea, but as health swallows an everbigger share of national wealth, greater efficiency is exactly what is needed, at least so far as governments and insurers are concerned. Otherwise, rich societies may fail to cope with the needs of ageing and growing populations. An extra five minutes spent chatting with a patient is costly as well as valuable. The AI revolution will also enable managerial accountants to adjust and evaluate every aspect of treatment. The autonomy of the doctor will surely be weakened, especially, perhaps, in publichealth systems which are dutybound to cut unnecessary costs. s knife or the chemist39。s lots of sense in it: the patients of sympathetic physicians have been shown to recover better.

They show wisdom and provide inspiration. They are important to our development. But sometimes people choose not to tell. There is a danger in holding back stories that ought to be told. Bobette Buster said it like this, The fact is, history has shown us that stories not told can bee like a dangerous genie (妖怪) left in a bottle. When they are finally uncorked, their power to destroy is set free. they require courage and strength to share。Most of us have two selves: the one we display on the outside and the one we actually are on the inside. And the better we get at hiding the stories that show our true selves, the more damage we may be causing to ourselves and to others. Does this mean we admit every weakness, every disadvantage, and every secret regret to everybody we meet? No, of course not. There is a time and a place and a certain level of relationship necessary for some stories to be told in an appropriate manner.(1)What39。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 (2)考查推理判斷。 (3)考查詞義猜測(cè)。 (4)考查推理判斷。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解,詞義猜測(cè)和推理判斷三個(gè)題型的考查,是一篇教育類閱讀,考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息,并根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系,進(jìn)行分析,推理,從而選出正確答案。For decades, doctors have warned patients that too much salt can be bad for the heart. Heat attack has long been considered a grownup problem, but a new research suggests that salt is starting to affect children. Eating too much salty food when you39。Salt is made up of two elements: sodium and chlorine. Dietary guidelines remend that adults and kids aged 9 — 13 shouldn39。A kid with high blood pressure is more likely to bee a grownup with high blood pressure. Reducing salt might also help stop childhood obesity (肥胖). British researchers recently found that kids who eat less salt also drink fewer sugary soft drinks. Drinking fewer fizzy drinks makes kids less likely to gain weight, bee obese and develop high blood pressure. Cutting down on salt can be hard, but you can retrain yourself to prefer less salty food. The best way to reduce the amount of sodium you eat is to make changes gradually. Start by adding half as much salt to your dinner as you normally do. Switch to fresh foods instead of canned and bottled versions. And go easy on the condiments (調(diào)味品). You might also want to start reading nutrition labels. You may be surprised to learn that there are 1,150 mg of sodium in a double cheeseburger, and over 2, 000 mg in many frozen meals.(1)What is the author39。 (1)考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。re young can lead to health problems later. ”長(zhǎng)期以來(lái),心臟病被認(rèn)為是成年人的問(wèn)題,但一項(xiàng)新的研究表明,鹽開(kāi)始影響兒童。故選A。根據(jù)第三段中的“Reducing salt might also help stop childhood obesity (肥胖).
