今天南京环球教育（原环球雅思）张依甜老师要跟大家说的还是剑4系列的真题，Test 4 Reading Passage 3，The problem of Scarce Resources稀缺资源的问题，文中主要是在讲医疗资源的短缺以及要如何解决，这类话题在写作中对应的是政府投资类的话题。

 

　　政府投资顾名思义，政府应该投资（invent money in／spend money on）在哪个方面，政府是否应该资助（subsidize）某些项目，而和健康医疗类相关的题目有：

 

　　1)Some people said the government should put money on building theatres and sports stadiums，and they should spend more money on medical care.Do you agree or disagree？

 

　　政府应该投资艺术体育还是医疗或者还会有类似的题政府应该投资公共设施还是医疗。

 

　　2)Some people say that the government should pay for the health care of its citizens，but other people say that it is not the government's responsibility.What is your opinion？

 

　　政府是否应该负责医疗。

　　3)Some people say that good health is important to every person，so medical services should not be run by profit-making companies.Do the disadvantages of private health care outweigh the advantages？

 

　　医疗设施是否可以由私营企业负责？

 

　　下面我们看看阅读文章里有哪些论据可以运用到作文中，为什么政府要投资医疗：

 

　　1）An awareness was developing in Western societies that people have a basic right to health care as a necessary condition of a proper human life.Like education，political and legal processes and institutions，public order，communication，transport and money supply，health-care came to be seen as one of the fundamental social facilities necessary for people to exercise their other rights as autonomous human beings.

 

　　享受卫生保健对于人类生活而言是不可或缺的，就像教育，政治权利，法律程序，机构一样，是一项基本的社会设施。

 

　　2）Basic health-care is now recognized as a'public good'，rather than a'private good'that one is expected to buy for oneself.It is also accepted that this right generates an obligation or duty for the state to ensure that adequate health-care are provide out of the public purse.

 

　　基本医疗应该是一种公共产品，而不是需要花钱去购买的个人产品。国家有义务确保公民能享有这项服务。

 

　　3）When it became obvious that health-care resources could not possibly meet the demands being made upon them，people are demanding that their rights to health-care be satisfied by the state.

 

　　当人们发现医疗设施不足以满足他们的需要时，就会要求政府提供更多的医疗设施

 

　　4）The second set of more specific changes that have led to the present concern about the provision of health-care resources stems from the dramatic rise in health costs，accompanied by large-scale social changes.

 

　　由于医疗成本的大幅增加和社会形态的改变，医疗资料的提供越来越具有挑战性，政府的职能之一就是要应对这种挑战。

 

　　刚才讲的三个题目，其实都还是围绕政府为什么要投资医疗和政府投资医疗有什么好处展开，阅读文章里面正好为我们提供了四个原因，也正是我们写作可以当作论据使用的。这里再补充几个论据，在政府职能类也是可以用到的：

 

　　1.A universal health service run by the tax revenue of the government should cover all social classes，both the rich and the poor.Each taxpayer should enjoy the right provided by the government.

 

　　2.As for those who are living under the poverty line and suffering from the agonies of various diseases，they might even fail to afford a small proportion of their medical care expenses.

 

　　3.The main motive of profit making companies is to derive profits rather than promoting health delivery system.In order to run their expensive models，they are not even hesitant to do unethical practices，for example，tempting patients into accepting expensive medicine，diagnosis and surgical procedures whose effects might be the same as cheaper alternative ones.
