雅思写作资料：政府是否应该给医疗买单

【政府类】

Some people believe that the healthcare should be free for everyone，while others say that people should pay for their own health care. Discuss both sides and give your opinion 有人认为健康医疗对于每一个公民应该免费，有人认为个人应该承担医疗费用，讨论两种观点，给出你的意见。

【小鹏哥预测——原题压中，见前预测】

【政府类】

Some people say that the government should pay for the health care and education of its citizens, but other people say that it is not the government’s responsibility. Discuss the two opinions and give your views. 有人认为政府应该给公民的教育和医疗买单，有人认为这不是政府的责任，讨论两种观点，说明你的立场?

【作家立场】我认为，享受免费的医疗是公民的一项基本权利。同时，政府应该合理地分配医疗预算。

【思路拓展】

〖政府给医疗买单的理由〗

① 公民是纳税人，有享受免费医疗的权利。政府是人民利益的代表，普及免费医疗可以还利于民。

② 政府的医疗上的援助可以使得很多患病的，同时来自贫困家庭的人得到及时的治疗，这有助于提高政府的威信，以及增强民众的民族自豪感。

③ 普及免费医疗可以公民的健康指数，因此提高国民的基本素质，增强一个国家在国际舞台的竞争力。

〖反对政府给医疗买单的理由〗

① 政府的财政有限，但是，要解决的民生问题是无穷的，完全普及免费医疗会无疑增加政府的财政压力。

② 对比普及免费的医疗，政府还要解决更重要的民生问题，例如改善环境，加强基础设施建设，普及教育，这些更加需要政府经济援助。

【范文赏析】

【首段】 背景介绍 + 作家立场

The government, as a decision-maker, is the representative of citizen’s basic interests. Hence, every governmental policy will surely exert a profound influence on the further prosperity of the nation. From my perspective，people have a basic right to free heath-care as a necessary condition of a proper human life. However，properly allocate the medical budget should be advocated.

【二段】正方观点的展开

Virtually，every individual could become beneficiaries of a perfect health-care resources. First, as honorable tax-payer, every citizen has been making his or her unique contribution to the nation. Thereby, to spend money on free healthcare should be considered as a returned favor. Also, as for those who are living under the poverty line and suffering from the agonies of various diseases, they might even fail to afford a small proportion of their medical care expenses. Therefore, the government should be urged to sponsor those who are in need of medical help. Imaginably, it could stabilize the society and enhance the government’s prestige. Eventually, to provide citizens with free medical care could, to a large extent, promote citizens’ health index and thus improve the basic quality of a nation’s population.

【三段】反方观点的展开

Others, however, might think differently. First, some opponents argue that ever-rising heath costs were matched against static or declining resources. In this sense, excessive investment medical treatment will inevitably impose much pressure upon a government economically. Another argument hold by some people is that the government has more pressing social problems that need to render more concerns over. In other words, to popularize free education, perfect the construction of the infrastructure or safeguard the environment still needs governmental support.

【尾段】再次亮明观点

In closing, my stand is that health-care should be considered as one of the fundamental social welfare. Therefore, it is the unshakable obligation to every government to ensure that adequate healthcare is provided out of public purse.
