C. READING
Part 1: Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
In 1960, Americans spent 10% of their healthcare dollar on medicines. Most of the money
came from their own pockets, and was spent on drugs that largely treated infections heart disease,
arthritis and depression. Beyond that, there was little that science could offer. Today, the range of
diseases for which medical research has some partial treatment is vast. Despite this, and the double
digit increase in drug spending - 75%-90% of which is paid for by insurance companies prescription drugs now
account for 9% of total health expenditures.
Similarly, claims by insurers and corporations - that drug costs are driving insurance costs up
in general - are overstated. According to health analyst J.D. Kleinke, since pharmacy costs represent
only 9% of all spending, even increases of 20% could not be responsible for insurance premium
increases of 10%-15% over the last two years: Premiums have been increasing far out of proportion
to increasing total medical costs over the past three years.
The fact is we should spend more on newer, more expensive medicines because they are worth
the investment. Medical innovation creates what Harvard economist David Cutler calls health capital
— the ability of people to stay well early and consistently throughout their lives, and remain that
way at an increasingly older age. In fact, under the most conservative assumption, the U.S would
have needed only about 30% of the improvement in medical progress over the period in time. In the
case of congestive heart failure, Mr. Cutler found that increased consumption of new and more
expensive drugs and other innovative technologies generated longer life, more productivity and
lower health costs that offset the cost of their development and consumption.

A. Percentage of money Americans pay for medicines out of their own pockets.
B. The variety of drugs available.

A. drug costs have not increased in the past
B. insurance costs have not increased in the past
C. premiums have increased by more than 20% in the last two years
D. premiums have increased much more than have total medical costs in the past three years
3. The way to invest in health capital is to ____.
A. adopt a healthy lifestyle
B. spend around 10% of the healthcare money on medicines
C. spend money on medicines that the latest medical science can offer
D. spend more money on medical care in spite of higher health costs
4. The cost of congestive heart failure illustrates that ____.
A. health capital is no guarantee for a better life
B. using newer drugs may prove too expensive for many people
C. using newer drugs contributes to a better life
D. it is difficult to make people spend more on medicines
5. The main idea of the passage is that ____.
A. people should spend more money on good medicines
B. people should get insurers to pay for their medicines
C. people are reluctant to pay a lot of money on medicines
D. medical technologies make most diseases curable
Part 2: Read the paragraph below and make the request.
A healthy lifestyle plays an important role in our daily lives. Actually, a healthy lifestyle
includes a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stable relationships.
Firstly, you should eat three meals a day: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Remember not to skip
breakfast because it can help you get through the day. You should also drink a lot of water because it
helps your body filter blood well and keep your skin healthy. You should also learn to love fruits and
vegetables. Those food groups contain necessary vitamins. They are good for your digestion.
Secondly, spend at least thirty minutes a day on physical activities. Regular exercise not only
improves your health but also prevents some diseases. Besides, it can make you look younger and
slimmer. It also helps you reduce stress. Try to exercise every day and never skip exercising for two
days in a row.
Thirdly, you should maintain good relationships with people around you: your friends,
parents, or neighbors. Thanks to the relationships you hold, you won't feel lonely or stressed.
In conclusion, keeping fit and staying healthy is an everyday task, starting from the moment
we get up to the time we go to bed. Eating sensibly, exercising, and having good relationships will
offer you a high-quality life.
