Text4 Death comes to all,but some are more sure of its timing,and can make plans.Kate Granger,a 32-year-old doctor suffering from an incurable form of sarcoma,has"very strong ambitions"for her last hours.She plans to avoid hospital emergency departments and die at her parents'house-music playing,candles glowing,family by her side.Surveys show that over two-thirds of Britons would like to die at home.Like Dr.Granger,they want to be with family and free ofpain.Yet hospital remains the most common place ofdeath.For some this is unavoidable-not every disease has as clear a tuming point as cancer-but for others a lack of planning is to blame.The govemment,motivated by both compassion and thrift,wants to help.To steer patients away from hospitals,general practitioners have been encouraged to find their l%-those patients likely to die in the next year-and start talking about end-of-life care.This can be difficult for doctors."As a profession we view death as failure,"says Dr.Granger.Yet when there is no cure to be had,planning for death can be therapeutic for patients.Those who do plan ahead are much more likely to have their wishes met.A growing number of patients have electronic"palliative-care co-ordination systems",which allow doctors to register personal preferences so that other care providers can follow them.A paramedic called to a patient's home would know of a do-not-resuscitate order,for example.One study showed that such systems increase the number of people dying in their homes.But savings for the government may mean costs for charities and ordinary folk.At the end of life it is not always clear who should pay for what.Although Britons can get ordinary health care without paying out of pocket,social care is means-tested.People must often shell out for carers or care homes-or look after the terminally ill themselves.Disputes crop up over trivial things,like responsibility for the cost ofa patient's bath.A bill now would cap the cost of an individual's social care by Parliament.Still,some want it to be free for those on end-of-life registries.That would cut into the govemment's savings-but allow more people to die as they want.37.Which of the following would Dr.Granger most probably agree on?A.A planned death is equal to suicide.B.Death is a failure for doctors.C.Planning for death is beneficial for patients.D.End-of-Iife care is a fundamental rask for doctors.
选项
A.A planned death is equal to suicide.
B.Death is a failure for doctors.
C.Planning for death is beneficial for patients.
D.End-of-Iife care is a fundamental rask for doctors.
答案
B
解析
推理判断题。第三段第二句给出信息说“格兰杰说:‘作为医生,我们将死亡看作失败”’。故选B项。【干扰排除】A项,第三段最后一句说到,“即使没有什么治疗方法,为死亡做好充分的计划对患者来说也是有益的”,故排除A项。C项,第三段最后一句有提到相关内容,但它不是格兰杰直接提出的观点,故排除;D项,第三段第一句说到“为引导病人出院,普通医生被劝服找到那些1%的可能会在下一年离世的病人,并且开始与他们谈论临终护理”,并不是说临终关怀就是他们的基本任务,故排除D项。
