Studies Show US Spending Doesn't Get Best Health

The United States may spend twice as much on health care as other rich countries but it is not getting results to match, according to studies released on Tuesday.

But in the study of five wealthy countries, published in the journal Health Affairs, researchers found no single nation had clearly the worst or best health care system.

Gerard Anderson at Johns Hopkins University's school of public health and colleagues came up with a list of 21 health fields they could evenly compare across the five countries — Australia, Canada, Britain, New Zealand and the United States.

"None of the five countries is consistently the best or the worst on all 21 indicators," Anderson said during a telephone briefing for reporters.

"If you are looking for the place to get the best care, there isn't a single place. Every country has at least one indicator where it scores the best of the five countries and each country has at least one indicator where it scores the worst of the five countries."

But, he said, the United States is not getting value for money. "The United States should be particularly concerned about these results, given that we spend twice as much on health care as any other country. So spending more doesn't necessarily result in better outcomes."

Anderson's group of international health experts sponsored by the Commonwealth Fund spent five years working on the study, getting the latest possible data from the five countries on areas such as breast cancer and leukemia survival, suicide rates, death rates from asthma, vaccination rates and cancer screening.

The US spends twice as much on health care as other rich countries.

听力原文:Man: To be honest I sort of fell on my feet. I was doing this course in media stu
dies which meant, you know, looking at cameras and drinking lots of coffee. And one day, we visited a television station as, like, work experience. And they were making this variety show and said they were looking for a new comedian because someone had let them down and so myself and my friend volunteered. It's still a mystery to me why, but they liked us and so I was on live television at the age of about seventeen. We thought we were absolutely brilliant, but I'm glad to say no copy exists of those programmes.

You hear a famous comedian talking on the radio about his early career. Why is he telling this stow?

A.To show how lucky he was at the beginning.

B.To show the value of a good course.

C.To show that he has always been a good comedian.

People who eat breakfast are generally more likely to maintain a healthy weight. Many people believe that they will lose weight if they skip meals, but that isn't a good idea. The body expects to be refueled a few times a day, so start with a healthy breakfast.

A healthy breakfast should contain some protein (蛋白质) and some fiber (纤维). Protein can come from meat, eggs, beans, or soy (大豆). Fiber can be found in whole cereals (谷物), grains or in fruits. A good example of a healthy breakfast might be something simple like a hard boiled egg, an orange, and a bowl of whole grain cereal with soy milk.

听力原文:Many of us believe that a person's mind becomes less active as he grows older.But

听力原文: Many of us believe that a person's mind becomes less active as he grows older. But this is not true, according to Dr. Lissy F. Javik, professor of psychiatry at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Jarvik has studied the mental functioning of aging persons for several years. For example, one of her studies concerns 136 pairs of identical twins, who were first examined when they were already 60 years old. As Dr. Jarvik's continued the study of the twins into their 70s and 8Os, their minds did not generally decline as was expected.

However, there was some decline in their psychomotor speed. This means that it took them longer to accomplish mental tasks than it used to. But when speed was not a factor, they last very little intellectual ability over the years. In general, Dr. Jarvik's studies have shown that there is no decline in knowledge or reasoning ability. This is true not only into the 30s and 40s but also into 60s and 70s as well.

As for learning new things, and ability to remember, studies by Dr. Jarvik and others show that the old are equal to the young. It is true that older people themselves often complain that their memory is not as good as it once was. However, much of what we call "loss of memory" is not that at all. There usually was incomplete learning in the first place. For example, the older person perhaps had trouble hearing or poor vision, or inattention, or was trying to learn the new thing at a speed that was too fast.

In the cases where the older person's mind really seems to decay, it is not necessarily a sign of a decay due to old age or "senility". Often it is simply a sign of a depressed emotional state. The depression usually can be counteracted by counseling, therapy with a psychologist, or medications which fight depression.

(30)

A.It remains as active as ever.

B.It tends to be less active.

C.It loses the ability to reason.

D.It functions well in learning new things.

听力原文:JB: After 30 years of steady decline, Earth's ozone layer is thinner but seems to
be stable. A ban on ozone-depleting CFCs is largely responsible. Computer modeling gives reason to hope for an almost full recovery of Earth's ozone layer within 60 years. But this sort of modeling is difficult -- and its predictions aren't iron-clad.

DB: And some models show the ozone layer could face a new threat -- from global warming. Drew Shindell, an atmospheric scientist at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York City, talked with us about his computer models of climate.

Which of the following statements is true of "Earth's Ozone Layer"?

A.Earth's ozone layer is thinner and doesn't seem to be stable.

B.The largely responsible part lies on a ban on ozone-depleting CFCs, when the Earth's ozone layer seems to be stable.

C.Earth's ozone layer will realize its' full recovery within 60 years.

D.Some computer models show the ozone layer far from the threat of global warming.
