　　Most people would be   1   by the high quality of medicine   2   to most Americans. There is a lot of specialization, a great deal of   3   to the individual, a   4   amount of advanced technical equipment, and   5   effort not to make mistakes because of the financial risk which doctors and hospitals must   6   in the courts if they   7   things badly.

　　But the Americans are in a mess. The problem is the way in   8   health care is organized and   9  .   10   to pubic belief it is not just a free competition system. The private system has been joined a large public system., because private care was simply not    11   the less fortunate and the elderly.

　　But even with this huge public part of the system,   12   this year will eat up 84.5 billion dollars—more than   10   percent of the U.S. Budget—large number of Americans are left   13   . These include about half the   11   million unemployed and those who fail to meet the strict limits   14   income fixed by a government trying to make savings where it can.

　　The rising cost of medicine in the U.S.A. is among the most worrying problems facing the country. In 1981 the country's health bill climbed 15.9 percent—about twice as fast as prices   20   general.
