What, S Lacking in"Sicko"?

When it comes to economicdecisions, there are always trade-offs(取舍).Gain one thing and you lose something else. _________(46)

The central argument of MichaelMoore's movie "Sicko"--that the cure to the nation's health care problems is asingle-payer system--is hardly novel and is certainly worth consideration, whetheror not you agree with it. But in comparing the American system withsingle-payer plans of other countries-Britain,France, Canada and Cuba Mr. Mooreleft out the trade-offs, characterizing those countries as health careparadises. ___________(47) Kurt Loder, the film critic who is best known as theanchor(主持人)of "MTV News", wrote a critique(批评)of the film for MTV's website. "Sicko," hesaid, "does a real service" in portraying(描绘)victimsof American insurance companies'--like the people, who died because their onlytreatment options were considered "experimental" and therefore not covered. _______(48)

When" governments attempt toregulate the balance between a limited supply of health care and an unlimiteddemand for it, they're inevitably forced to ration treatment.

Mr. Loder asserted. ________(49)Mr.Loder cited the short film "Dead Meat," which presents anecdotes(轶事)of failure In the Canadian single-payersystem in its one-sidedness, "Dead Meat", might have made for a nice doublefeature with "Sicko," and left movie-goers with a more complete understandingOf the complications of deciding on a health care system _____________(50)

This all makes an otherwise "emotionallycompelling film not necessarily an intellectually satisfying one," wrote DarrenBarefoot, a Canadian blogger. (博客作者).

  A Thisis particularly true in health care, a market in which scarce(稀罕的)goods are ridiculously expensive, but neededby everybody

  B Mr.Moore also decided to ignore problems in other countries, like France's high taxesand Britain' S cash-short hospitals

  C Butthe film as a whole, he concluded, is "breathtakingly meretricious(似是而非的)," in large part because of itscharacterizations of other countries' health care systems.

  D Theproblems have been noticed-and criticism is coming not just from Mr. Moore'sdetractors(诋毁者).

  E Heticked off a number of negative statistics to counter the positive ones offeredby Mr. Moore

  F Healthcare is the prevention, treatment, and management of illness
