What’s Lacking in “ Sicko”？
When it comes to economic decisions, there are always trade-offs （取舍）, Gain one thing and you lose something else. ____________(1)
The central argument of Michael Moore’s movie “ Sicko” 一 that the cure to the nation’s health care problems is a single-payer system — is hardly novel and is certainly worth consideration, whether or not you agree with it. But in comparing the American system with single-payer plans of other countries 一 Britain, France, Canada and Cuba — Mr. Moore left out the trade-offs, characterizing those countries as health care paradises.
____________ ( 2 )
Kurt Loder，the film critic who is best known as the anchor （主持人） of “ MTV News”，wrote a critique （批评）of the film for MTV’s website. Sicko’ ，’’ he said，“ does a real service” in portraying ( 描绘）victims of American insurance companies — like the people
who died because their only treatment options were considered “ experimental” and therefore not covered. ____________ (3)
When “ governments attempt to regulate the balance between a limited supply of health care and an unlimited demand for it，they’re inevitably forced to ration treatment，” Mr.Loder asserted. ____________(4) Mr.Loder cited the short film “ Dead Meat,” which presents
anecdotes （轶事）of failure in the Canadian single-payer system. In its one-sidedness， “ Dead Meat” might have made for a nice double feature with “ Sicko” ，and left moviegoers with a more complete understanding of the complications of deciding on a health care system.
____________ (5)
This all makes an otherwise “ emotionally compelling film not necessarily an intellectually satisfying one," wrote Darren Barefoot，a Canadian blogger （博客作者）.
（5）
选项 A Mr. Moore also decided to ignore problems in other countries, like France’s high taxes and Britain’s cash-short hospitals.
B But the film as a whole, he concluded，is “ breathtakingly meretricious （似是而非的）,” in large part because of its characterizations of other countries’ health care systems.
C The problems have been noticed — and criticism is coming not just from Mr. Moore’s detractors （诋毁者）.
D He ticked off a number of negative statistics to counter the positive ones offered by Mr.Moore.
E Health care is the prevention, treatment, and management of illness.
F This is particularly true in health care，a market in which scarce （稀罕的）goods are ridiculously expensive, but needed by everybody.
