问题     Directions: There are 10 questions in this part of the test. Read the passage through. Then, go back and choose one suitable word or phrase marked A, B, C, or D for each blank in the passage.
The health-care economy is filled with unusual and even unique economic relationships. One of the least understood involves the  (41)   roles of producer or "provider" and purchaser or "consumer" in the typical doctor-patient relationship. In most sectors of the economy, it is the seller who attempts to attract a  (42)   buyer with various inducements of price, quality, and utility, and it is the buyer who makes the  (43)  . Where circumstances permit the buyer no choice because there is effectively only one seller and the product is relatively  (44)  , government usually asserts monopoly and places the industry under price and other regulations.  (45)   of these conditions prevails in most of the health-care industry.
    In the health-care industry, the doctor-patient relationship is the mirror image of the ordinary relationship between producer and consumer.  (46)   an individual has chosen to see a physician-and even then there may be no real choice-it is the physician who usually makes all significant  (47)   decisions: whether the patient should return "next Wednesday", whether drugs should be prescribed, etc. It is a rare and sophisticated patient who will  (48)   such professional decisions or raise in advance questions about price, especially when the disease is regarded as serious.

选项 A、manufacturing
B、purchasing
C、promoting
D、curing
答案 B
解析 本段第一句中提到，在保健业，医生和病人的关系是普通的生产者和消费者之间的关系的对照，即正好相反。因此可以推断，与一般的经济关系中消费者做购买决定相对照，在保健业是医生扮演着消费者角色做出购买决定。所以，根据上文，purchase“购买”最为确切，符合上文的逻辑关系。若选manufacture“生产”或promote“促销”，那么医生与患者之间的关系也就没有特殊之处了，这与题意正好相反：cure意为“治愈”，与下文也明显不符。
