alarming speed for the past thirty years today in britain for example about four hundred people a day die of heart disease medical experts know that people can reduce their chances of getting heart disease by exercising regularly by not smoking by changing their diets and by paying more attention to reducing stress in their work however western health care systems are still not paying enough attention to the prevention of the disease there is a need for more programs to educate the public about the causes and prevention of heart disease instead of supporting such programs however the u s health care system is spending large sums of money on the surgical 外科的 treatment of the disease after it develops this emphasis 强调 on treatment clearly has something to do with the technological advances that have taken place in the past ten to fifteen years in this time modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques many operations that were considered impossible or too risky a few years ago are now performed every day in u s hospitals the result has been a huge increase in heart surgery although there is no doubt that heart surgery can help a large number of people some people point out that the emphasis on the surgical treatment of the disease has three clear disadvantages first it attracts interest and 4 money away from the question of prevention second it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise after hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery they must try to recover the money they have spent to do this they raise costs for all their patients not just those patients whose treatment requires the equipment the third disadvantage is that doctors are encouraged to perform surgery even on patients for whom an operation is unnecessary because the equipment and expert skills are there a government office recently stated that major heart surgery was often performed even though its chances of success were low in one type of heart surgery for example only 15 percent of patients improved their conditions after the surgery however more than 100 000 of these operations are performed in the united states every year 21 what effect has modern technology had on medicine a it has reduced the costs of medical treatment b it has helped save the lives of most patients c it has encouraged

surgeries c to get back the money spent on the equipment d to buy new equipment for the treatment of heart disease 23 the author would agree that a more money should be spent on the prevention of heart disease b heart surgery has helped most patients improve their conditions c modern technology has made heart surgery more risky than before d the public have known a great deal about the causes of heart disease 24 what would be the best title for the passage a the greatest killer in the west b heart disease treat or prevent c modern technology and heart surgery d heart surgery advantages and disadvantages b 5 google has started google science fair gsf 2014 its annual online competition for bright creative and ambitious teenagers who want to change the world with science while the project
