阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships. One of the least understood involves the peculiar roles of producer or “provider” and purchaser or “consumer” in the typical doctor-patient relationship. In most sectors of the economy, it is the seller who attempts to attract a potential buyer with various appealing factors of price, quality, and use, and it is the buyer who makes the decision. Such condition, however, is not common in most of the health-care industry.
In the health-care industry, the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the ordinary relationship between producer and consumer. Once an individual has chosen to see a physician — and even then there may be no real choice — it is the physician who usually makes all significant purchasing decisions: whether the patient should return “next Wednesday”, whether X-rays are needed, whether drugs should be prescribed, etc. It is rare that a patient will challenge such professional decisions or raise in advance questions about price, especially when the disease is regarded as serious.
This is particularly significant in relation to hospital care. The physician must certify the need for hospitalization, determine what procedures will be performed, and announce when the patient may be discharged. The patient may be consulted about some of the decisions, but in general it is the doctor’s judgments that are final. Little wonder then that in the eye of the hospital it is the physician who is the real “consumer”. As a consequence, the medical staff represents the “power center” in hospital policy and decision-making, not the administration.
Although usually there are in this situation four identifiable participants— the physician, the hospital, the patient, and the payer (generally an insurance carrier or government)— the physician makes the essential decisions for all of them. The hospital becomes an extension of the physician; the payer generally meets most of the bills generated by the physician/hospital, and for the most part the patient plays a passive role. We estimate that about 75-80 percent of health-care choices are determined by physicians, not patients. For this reason, the economy directed at patients or the general is relatively ineffective.
1.The author’s primary purpose in writing this passage is to ________.
A. urge hospitals to reclaim their decision-making authority
B. inform potential patients of their health-care rights
C. criticize doctors for exercising too much control over patients
D. analyze some important economic factors in health-care
2.It can be inferred that doctors are able to determine hospital policies because ________.
A. most of patient’s bills are paid by his health insurance
B. it is doctors who generate income for the hospital
C. some patients might refuse to take their physician’s advice
D. a doctor is ultimately responsible for a patient’s health
3.According to the author, when a doctor tells a patient to “return next Wednesday”, the doctor is in fact ________.
A. advising the patient to seek a second opinion
B. warning the patient that a hospital stay might be necessary
C. instructing the patient to buy more medical services
D. admitting that the first visit was ineffective
4.The author is most probably leading up to ________.
A. a proposal to control medical costs
B. a study of lawsuits against doctors for malpractice
C. an analysis of the cause of inflation (通货膨胀) in the US
D. a discussion of a new medical treatment

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项.
We have seen that humor and laughter positively influence our body in many ways, but little research has been done on whether a better sense of humor actually helps keep you from getting sick. However, since people with a better sense of humor have higher IgA levels, and since research has shown that those with higher levels of salivary(唾液的) IgA are less likely to get colds or be infected with Streptococcus, humor should reduce the frequency of colds.
The only study to directly examine this question found that the impact of one’s sense of humor upon colds depends on the kind of sense of humor you have. It was only individuals whose sense of humor took the form of seeking out and appreciating humor who had fewer and less severe colds/flu than their low humor counterparts. Surprisingly, those whose sense of humor took the form of initiating humor more often did not have fewer or less severe colds/flu. The researchers argued that being a person who likes to tell jokes or otherwise initiate humor takes them into more frequent contact with other people, which serves to expose them to infectious agents more often, robbing them of the advantage that a more active sense of humor otherwise offers. Obviously, more research is required to clear up this confusing picture.
The importance of active use of one’s sense of humor in producing humor’s health benefits was confirmed in another study in an unusual way. It found that among a group of mothers with newborn infants, those who actively used humor to cope with the stress in their lives had fewer upper respiratory infections and their infants also had fewer infections. This seemed to be because these mothers had higher levels of immunoglobulin A (免疫球蛋白A) in their breast milk.
Among adults, if we look at bodily symptoms alone, independent of any diagnosed illness, there is some evidence that individuals who have more negative reactions to humor report more bodily symptoms and complaints. Students complaining of cardiovascular(心脏血管的) symptoms and gastroenterological (肠胃病的) symptoms also have been shown to have this more negative reaction to humor.
1.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. People with a good sense of humor get sick less often.
B. Humor can reduce the frequency of colds / flu.
C. Any form of humor can prevent people from getting sick.
D. Humor can treat illness.
2.According to the passage, IgA is _______.
A. a medicine B. enzyme
C. factor D. measure
3.Why do newborn infants whose mothers use humor to deal with stress have fewer infections?
A. Because they don't often get upper respiratory infections.
B. Because they are stronger since they were born.
C. Possibly because of the higher levels of immunoglobulin A in their breast milk.
D. Because their mothers take better care of them.
4.Students with some bad bodily symptoms show ___________ towards humor.
A. a positive attitude B. a negative attitude
C. a neutral attitude D. an unclear attitude
