〖The Emergency Room〗
<聽(tīng)寫(xiě)方式: 填空, 一空一詞, 不用帶數(shù)字序號(hào)>
A: Most hospitals are divided into sections that include an emergency ____1____ open 24 hours a day, ____2____ medicine, a ____3____ ____4____ , surgery, and the intensive care ward. This hospital also has two extra sections——one for ____5____ , and one for ____6____ . We are one of the leading hospitals treating cancer patients in the region.
B: Wow. My brother is studying medicine——he wants to be a ____7____ someday.
B: A noble goal! Let me show you the emergency room——it's the most exciting, most hectic place in the hospital.
A: So how does the process work here?
B: Well, patients come in off the street with all sorts of injuries or health problems: broken bones, car accident injuries, you name it!
A: It must get pretty scary in here!
B: Yes, it does. We have the most trouble keeping people calm. Family members who accompany the patients tend to get ____8____ and can sometimes prevent us from efficiently treating the patients. So sometimes we have to ask them to stay in the waiting room.
A: I'm not very familiar with the ____9____ system here. Can anyone get medical treatment?
B: That is a very good question. It's a serious social problem here because while most people receive health insurance through their jobs, many people either are not offered insurance through their company or can't afford it.
A: What happens then? Do they just die?
B: Oh, no! The government has a health insurance program but only some people qualify for it. So the rest go without health insurance which can create some very expensive hospital ____10____ .
A: Boy am I glad my job provides health insurance benefits!

<本期重點(diǎn)詞匯> ward n.病房 emergency ward 急診病房 internal medicine 內(nèi)科 surgery n.外科 maternity ward 婦產(chǎn)病房 intensive care ward 重護(hù)特別護(hù)理病房 pediatrics n.小兒科 oncology n.腫瘤科 surgeon n.外科醫(yī)生 hysterical ad.歇斯底里的 healthcare n.醫(yī)療保健 health insurance 健康保險(xiǎn) <參考譯文> A: 大多數(shù)的醫(yī)院都分成不同的部門(mén):急診病房(24小時(shí)全天開(kāi)放)、內(nèi)科、婦產(chǎn)科病房、外科和重護(hù)特別護(hù)理病房。我們醫(yī)院還有兩個(gè)特別部門(mén)——一個(gè)是小兒科,一個(gè)是腫瘤科。我們是這個(gè)地區(qū)治療癌癥方面領(lǐng)先的醫(yī)院之一。 B: 哦。我哥哥是學(xué)醫(yī)的,他想有一天能成為外科醫(yī)生。 A: 好遠(yuǎn)大的理想??!讓我想您看看急診室。這是醫(yī)院里最緊張最刺激的一個(gè)地方。 B: 這里的工作程序是什么? A: 嗯,病人們從外面帶著各種各樣的情況來(lái)到我們醫(yī)院:骨折、車(chē)禍,什么樣的病都有。 B: 這個(gè)地方一定很慌亂! A: 是的。我們最大的難題就是讓人么安靜下來(lái)。陪病人一起來(lái)的家屬總是無(wú)法控制住情緒,這有時(shí)會(huì)阻止我們對(duì)病人進(jìn)行有效的治療。所以我們必須讓他們?cè)诤蛟\室等候。 B: 對(duì)于這里的醫(yī)保系統(tǒng)我不是很熟悉。每個(gè)人都可以得到醫(yī)療救助嗎? A: 這個(gè)問(wèn)題問(wèn)得好。在這里,這是個(gè)很?chē)?yán)重的社會(huì)問(wèn)題,雖然大多數(shù)人通過(guò)他們的工作得到健康保險(xiǎn),但是也有很多人不能通過(guò)公司得到保險(xiǎn),或是根本就付不起醫(yī)藥費(fèi)。 B: 然后呢?他們就這樣等死嗎? A: 哦,不!政府有一項(xiàng)健康保險(xiǎn)計(jì)劃,但是只有一些人具有它規(guī)定的資格。所以其他的人看病時(shí)就沒(méi)有健康保險(xiǎn)了,而他們得交很昂貴的醫(yī)療費(fèi)用。 B: 哦,我的工作會(huì)提供健康保險(xiǎn)福利,我真是太高興了。
