Health Care
From the picture, we can see that the old man was suffering from heart trouble. He had to go to hospital for medical care. When he saw the medical bill from the hospital, which was far beyond what he could afford, he was so shocked that he couldn’t stand on his feet. It’s really another heart attack for him.
At present, many people can’t afford heavy medical fees. Because of this, they may get into deep debt in order to get proper medical care or have to bear the pain of diseases. Worse still, some have to wait helplessly for the last day of their life. If this situation continues, it will surely cause the instability of our society and eventually interfere with the development of our country.
Therefore, we strongly call for the medical expenses to be reduced. The government should build up a favorable medical system so that every person can afford their medical care and can enjoy their life as long as possible.

(山東省聊城市2008年高三年級模擬（四）A篇)
Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doyle’s husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.
Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a good—bye close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them.
Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home—the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.
To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and self- confidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.
Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive(沖動). “It’s typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people’s pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty.”

A. could not forgive him for taking the children
B. had been expecting it to happen for some time
C. could not understand why
D. blamed herself for what had happened
57. Most people who leave their families behind them_______.
A. do so without warning B. do so because of their debts
C. come back immediately D. change their names
58. Some people would even prefer the death to the running away of their spouse because .
A. their spouse would feel no pain during the death
B. their spouse death would not be a bit terrible
C. a desertion would not bring a feeling of rejection or failure
D. their spouse’s death would make them feel less painful
59. Usually the man or woman left behind with an unfinished marriage __________.
A. admits responsibility for the situation
B. wishes the person who has left were dead
C. will come back within a year
D. will have no legal marriage life for seven years
60. Paul Brown regards leaving home in such circumstances as _____________.
A. an act of despair B. an act of selfishness
