　　Directions：In this section，you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to statement contains information given in one of the tify the paragraph from which the information is may choose a paragraph more than paragraph is marked with a er the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.

Reform and Medical Costs

[A] Americans are deeply concerned about the relentless rise in health care costs and health insurance need to know if reform will help solve the answer is that no one has an easy fix for rising medical fundamental fix—reshaping how care is delivered and how doctors are paid in a rmal system—is likely to be achieved only through trial and error and incremental(渐进的) gains.

[B] The good news is that a bill just approved by the House and a bill approved by the Senate Finance Committee would implement or test many reforms that should help slow the rise in medical costs over the long a report in The Nel4,England Journal of Medicine concluded.“Pretty much every proposed innovation found in the health policy literature these days is contained in these measures.”

[C] Medical spending，which typically rises faster than wages and the overall economy,is propelled by two things：the high prices charged for medical services in this country and the volume of unnecessary care delivered by doctors and hospitals,which often perform a lot more tests and treatments than a patient really needs.

[D] Here are some of the important proposals in the House and Senate bills to try to address those problems，and why it is hard to know how well they will work.

[E] Both bills would reduce the rate of growth in annual Medicare payments to hospitals，nursing homes and other providers by amounts comparable to the productivity savings routinely made in other industries with the help of new technologies and new ways to organize proposal could save Medicare more than$100 billion over the next private plans demanded similar productivity savings from providers，and refused t01et providers shift additional costs to savings could be much ics say Congress will give in to lobbyists and let inefficient providers off the hook(放过). That is far less likely to happen if Congress also adopts strong“pay—go”rules requiring that any increase in payments to providers be offset by new taxes or budget cuts.

[F] The Senate Finance bill would impose an excise tax(消费税)on health insurance plans that cost more than$8，000 for an individual or$21.000 for a would most likely cause insurers to redesign plans to fall beneath the llees would have to pay more money for many services out of their own pockets，and that would encourage them to think twice about whether an expensive or redundant test was worth omists project that most employers would shift money from expensive health benefits into House bill has no similar final legislation should.

[G] Any doctor who has wrestled with multiple form.s from different insurers，or patients who have tried to understand their own parade of statements，know that simplification ought to save the health insurance industry was still cooperating in reforin trade group offered to provide standardized forms for automated estimated that step would save hundreds of billions of dollars over the next bills would lock that pledge into law.

[H] The stimulus package provided money to convert the inefficient，paper—driven medical system to electronic records that can be easily viewed and requires open investments to help doctors time it should help restrain costs by eliminating redundant enting drug interactions，and helping doctors find the best treatments.

[I] Virtually all experts agree that the —service system—doctors are rewarded for the quantity of care rather than its quality or effectiveness—is a primary reason that the cost of care is so agree that the solution is to push doctors to accept fixed payments to care for a particular illness or for a patient’s needs over a one knows how to make that happen bills in both houses would start pilot projects within include such measures as accountable care organizations to take charge of a patient’s needs with an eye on both cost and quality,and chronic disease management to make sure the seriously are responsible for the bulk of all health care treated the most e experiments rely on incentive payments to get doctors to try them.

[J] Testing innovations do no good unless the good experiments are identified and expanded and the bad ones are Senate bill would create an independent commission to monitor the pilot programs and recommend changes in Medicare’s Payment policies to urge providers to adopt reforms that changes would have to be approved or rejected as a whole by Congress，making it hard for narrow—interest lobbies to bend lawmakers to their will.

[K] The bills in both chambers would create health insurance exchanges on which small businesses and individuals could choose from an array of private plans and possibly a public the plans would have to provide standard benefit packages that would be easy to compare，To get access to millions of new rers would have a strong incentive to sell on the the head—to—head competition might give them a strong incentive to lower their aps by accepting slimmer profit margins or demanding better deals from providers.

[L] The final legislation might throw a public plan into the competition，but thanks to the fierce opposition of the insurance industry and Republican might not save much money The one in the House bill would have to negotiate rates with er than using Medicare many reformers wanted.

[M] The president’s stimulus package is pumping money into research to compare how well various treatments surgery,radiation or careful monitoring best for prostate(前列腺)cancer?Is the latest and most expensive cholester01.10wering drug any better than its common competitors?The pending bills would spend additional money to accelerate this effort.

[N] Critics have charged that this sensible idea would lead to rationing of care.(That would be true only if you believed that patients should have an unrestrained right to treatments proven to be inferior.)As a result，the bills do not require，as they should，that the results of these studies be used to set payment rates in Medicare.

[O] Congress needs to find the courage to allow Medicare to Pay preferentially for treatments proven to be times the best treatment might be spending would come down through elimination of treatments,the most overall，we suspect that a lot of unnecessary or even dangerous tests and

[P] The House bill would authorize the secretary of health and human services to negotiate drug prices in Medicare and authoritative analysts doubt that the secretary would get better deals than private insurers already believe negotiation could does in other countries.

[Q] Missing from these bills is any serious attempt to rein in malpractice costs，Malpractice awards do drive up insurance premiums for doctors in specialties，and there is some evidence that doctors engage in“defensive medicine”by performing tests and treatments primarily to prove they are not negligent should they get sued.

a tax imposed on expensive health insurance plans，most employers will likely transfer money from health expenses into wages.

ges in policy would be approved or rejected as a whole so that lobbyists would find it hard to influence lawmakers.

is not easy to curb the rising medical costs in America.

dardization of forms for automatic processing will save a lot of medical expenses.

blicans and the insurance industry are strongly opposed to the creation of a public insurance plan.

ersion of paper to electronic medical records will help eliminate redundant tests and prevent drug interactions.

high cost of medical services and unnecessary tests and treatments have driven up medical expenses.

main factor that has driven up medical expenses is that doctors are compensated for the amount of care rather than its effect.

rary to analysts’doubts，the author believes drug prices may be lowered through negotiation.

competition might create a strong incentive for insurers to charge less.

Those dangers can be addressed with farmer and consumer education，he said，while the free water and nutrients from human waste can help urban farmers in developing countries to escape poverty.

Agriculture is a water-intensive business，accounting for nearly 70%of global flesh water consumption.

In poor，dry regions，untreated waste water is the only viable irrigation source to keep farmers in some cases，water is so scarce that farmers break open sewage pipes transporting waste to local rivers.

Irrigation is the primary agricultural use of human waste in the developing frequently untreated human waste harvested from lavatories is delivered to farms and spread as fertilizer.

In most cases，the human waste is used on grain crops，which are eventually cooked，minimizing the risk of transmitting water-borne fertilizer prices jumping nearly 50%per metric ton over the last year in some places，human waste is an attractive，and often necessary,alternative.

In cases where sewage mud is used，expensive chemical fertilizer use can be mud contains the same critical nutrients.
