问答题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}}Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. Looking at how far we'll be able to fund the Health Service in the 21st century raises any number of thorny issues. (46){{U}}Many of the options have already been rehearsed in the press: excluding some treatments from the NHS, charging for certain drugs and services, and developing voluntary or compulsory health insurance schemes.{{/U}} Compared to its European Union counterparts Britain operates a low-cost health system: we spend about 7 per cent of GDP on health, compared with 9 per cent in the Netherlands and 10 per cent in France and Germany. In terms of health outcomes versus spend, we compare pretty favourably. I don't see private health care providing much of the solution to current problems. (47) {{U}}More likely is a shift from universal health coverage to top-up schemes which give people basic health entitlements but require them to finance other treatment through private financing, or opt-out schemes which use tax relief to encourage individuals to make private provision.{{/U}} Neither is close to being implemented, but the future could see a deliberate shift of attention to voluntary health .insurance and an emphasis on social insurance. (48) {{U}}I expect individuals to take greater responsibility for their personal health using technology that allows self-diagnosis followed by self-treatment or home care.{{/U}} Even so, higher taxes will plainly be needed to fund health care. (49) {{U}}I think we'll eventually see larger NHS charges, more rationing of medical services and restrictions on certain procedures without proven outcomes.{{/U}} Stricter eligibility criteria for certain treatments are another possibility. All such options would mean a sharp break with tradition and political fall-out that could be extremely damaging. (50) {{U}}None of them is going to win votes for the political party desperate enough to introduce them but then nobody is going to vote for ill-health or an early death either.{{/U}}

问答题Directions：In this part there is an essay in Chinese．Read it carefully and then write a summary of 200 words in English on the ANSWER SHEET．Make sure that your summary covers the major points of the essay． 抑郁症——蓝色隐忧 抑郁症在西方被称为“蓝色隐忧”。抑郁症在我国的情况也不容乐观，目前抑郁症在我国的发病率大约为24％。新的疾病分类法和诊断系统所进行的部分地区流行病学调查资料表明，我国抑郁症患病率约为29％一35％，已与发达国家统计结果相近。神经精神疾病在我国疾病总负担中排名首位，约占疾病总负担的70％。 随着社会的发展，生活在北京、上海及广州等大城市的白领们在高压力高竞争的环境下迅速成为此病的高发人群。令人遗憾的是与高发病率形成鲜明反差的是，目前全国地市级以上医院对抑郁症的识别率不到20％。在现有的抑郁症患者中，只有不到3％的人接受了相关的药物治疗。 抑郁症患者人数逐年增加的原因知道吗?专家近几年也是在不断地寻找抑郁症患者逐年增加的原因，要找原因首先应该分析抑郁症的引发因素主要有哪些，很多抑郁症患者在得病前都是思维敏捷，思想激进，对待事情容易敏感等，这些都会成为抑郁症发病原因。 临床上，引起抑郁症的原因有很多，其中包括： 1．生物化学因素：现在已知抑郁症患者脑内有多种神经递质出现了紊乱，这种生物化学因素导致的抑郁症必须使用药物治疗加以控制。 2．抑郁性格：自卑、敏感、胆小、看问题消极、对生活事件把握性差、过分担心。这些性格特点会使心理应激事件的刺激加重，并干扰个人对事件的处理。 3．家族遗传性：研究人员发现，如果家庭中有抑郁症的患者，那么其他家庭成员患病的危险性就会增高，这可能是遗传导致了抑郁症易感性升高，其中双相抑郁症的遗传性更高些。 4．社会环境因素：人际交往、工作压力、家庭矛盾等诸如此类的社会心理因素都可能导致抑郁症的发生。 抑郁症是神经症的一种，有情感低落、思维迟缓及言语动作减少等症状，其实出现此种病症只要保持良好的心态，就可以克服，从而最终快乐的走下去。那么究竟如何克服抑郁症呢?具体的方法是什么呢? 1．每个人都可以把自己的生活想得很好，但是你必须确定你的起跑线。走出心灵的迷宫就必须知道自己所处的位置。这好比你必须跨过当下完成一个小目标，才能进而走下去。但是我们往往完成不了这个小目标，就对以后的路完全视而不见。这个过程中明白自己的才干和天赋也很重要，通过社会实践去进行，也许现实和理想是有差距的，那时就要考验我们的耐心和激情，但是很多人无法在社会与个人之间找到平衡点，不要随便压抑内心的欲望，要找到适合它的方式。 2．学会放弃。放弃也是一种智慧，不一定代表你的能力失败，抑郁症者往往有这样一种心态，眼前的失败会将我打倒，他们往往忽略了也许另一种选择会成就更美好的天地。也许一条道跑到黑所坚持的还没有另一条道带给你的更美好。 3．需要无限信任自己。要随时想着自己的长处而非短处，想着自己的能力而不是困难。 4．爱自己的同时也要爱别人，这能更大程度地体现一个人的价值。要尽最大努力去帮助一些不幸的人，通过帮助别人你会发现自己的价值，就像上面所提到的家庭目标一样，使自己的亲人幸福也是我们的目标。 综上所述，上述只是几种克服抑郁症的方法，所以日常生活中一定要保持良好的心理态度，及时缓解心情，释放压力，从而避免抑郁症的困扰。
