27、r the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 45 As the costs of health care continue to rise, employers will ask their employees to pay more for their benefits by the year 2000. This forecast comes from a recent survey of 400 executives conducted by the

28、 group Insurance Division of Northwestern National Life Insurance Company(NWNL). A similar NWNL survey in 1986 found that two thirds of the employers were planning to add benefits. Now, two thirds are planning to offer fewer choices. Factors cited as driving up the cost of health care include hospit

29、al and doctor fees, new medical technology, and malpractice suits. Employers also face the expensive prospect of providing health care for the growing number of retirees. Says the employee benefit director of a Boston communication company, “With people living longer, and being sicker when older, we

30、 could be paying a big sum of money for 30 to 40 years after they retire. “ Compulsory benefits are also likely to increase health care costs to employers. A majority of the respondents predict that the federal government will demand benefits for all employees. More than one fourth of the employers

31、surveyed think it is very likely that the government will establish a national plan by the year 2000, and a similar number foresee regulation of doctor and hospital fees. However, a large majority doubt such measures are very likely to be effective in controlling health care costs. Besides holding e

32、mployees responsible for a larger share of their benefit costs, more employers will offer flexible benefit plans with limited employer contributions. Health education programs will grow in the workplace, as employers try to lessen the need for expensive medical care. Other employers intent on cuttin

33、g costs will design their benefit plans to allow their employees fewer choices in when and how they get medical care. Although the survey results reflect uncertainty about the future, they also offer reason for optimism, says U. S. Senator David Durenberger of Minnesota, “People are starting to come

34、 to grips with the question of how we can more effectively provide quality health care that is affordable and accessible, “he asserts, “We no longer can write blank checks. “ 46 A recent survey conducted by NWNL found that _. （ A） new medical technology helps to reduce the cost of health care （ B） e

35、mployees have to pay more for their benefits （ C） employees will be offered more choices in the benefit plans （ D） two thirds of the employers are thinking of adding benefits 47 Which of the following will not cause the increase of the cost of health care? （ A） Compulsory benefits demanded by the go

36、vernment. （ B） Health education program. （ C） Increasing number of retirees. （ D） Hospital and doctor fees. 48 What will the employers do to reduce the health care cost? （ A） They will not provide health care for the retirees. （ B） They will employ fewer employees. （ C） They will ask their employees

37、 to pay most of the cost. （ D） They will depend on the regulation of doctor and hospital fees. 49 The phrase “come to grips with“ in the last paragraph most probably means _. （ A） to understand completely （ B） to deal seriously with （ C） to attack violently （ D） to firmly get hold of 50 Senator Davi

38、d Durenberger implies that _. （ A） people cannot afford the medical fee （ B） it is illegal to write blank checks （ C） its impossible to solve the problem of health care （ D） people dont take the problem of health care seriously in the past 50 Every day, we are all influenced by the mass media(televi

39、sion, movies, radio, magazines, newspapers, and the like ). Although some critics of the media claim that these means of communication are used primarily to control our thinking and get us to buy products that we dont need, the media also contribute to keeping people informed. In other words, while

40、dangers do exist, the benefits of the media far outweigh the disadvantages. Most of the messages brought to viewers, listeners, and readers are designed either to inform or to entertain and neither of these goals can be considered dangerous or harmful. If consumers of the media could be taught at an

41、 early age to examine messages critically, i. e. , to think carefully about what is being communicated they would be able to take advantage of the information and enjoy the entertainment without being hurt by it. The key to critical thinking is recognizing the purposes of the news or scriptwriters,

42、the advertisers, and so on. Axe both sides of an issue being presented? Is the amount of violence and killing shown necessary to the point of a story? Have enough facts about a product being advertised been presented? Furthermore, in a country with a democratic form of government, the people can be

43、kept informed by the mass media. To be able to express their views and vote intelligently, citizens need the opportunity to hear news, opinions, and public affairs programming. Information about current events is presented in depth on publicly funded TV channels and radio stations as well as in news

44、papers. In addition, the public broadcasting media can help viewers and listeners to complete or further their education. Recent immigrants, for example, can improve their command of English through TV and radio, and in addition, some college courses are taught on educational television. Another rec

45、ognized advantage of the media is that it gives people the information they need in their daily lives: weather and traffic reports are good examples. While commercials and advertising do not necessarily present accurate information, they do make people aware of the availability of products that coul

46、d improve their lives. In addition, they create a large demand for some items, which may lead to a reduction in their price. While the media can be a valuable means of educating the public, when most people turn on the TV set or the radio, they want to be entertained. As a result most programming co

47、nsists of movies, plays, music, comedies, game shows, and sports events. Some of these offerings are of low quality, but, on the other hand, many are fun to watch and interesting, written and presented well. Even though the mass media can be misused, most of its effects are positive. We are all infl

48、uenced by television, movies, radio, magazines, and newspapers, and if we are careful to examine their message critically these can all be benefit to our lives. 51 The main point the author tries to make in this passage is most probably that _. （ A） advertising is harmful when it presents inaccurate

49、 information （ B） the positive effects of the mass media outweigh the negative ones （ C） people should learn to take advantage of the medias benefits （ D） television is more useful as a means of entertainment than as a means of providing information 52 According to the author, the two main purposes of the mass media axe to _. （ A） control our thinking and get us to buy useless products （ B） provide people with information and entert
