题目： It is important for the government to invest more money in hospital and other health-related facilities. However, others believe that it is individual’s responsibility to keep their own health. Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.
正文：
Recently, there has been quite a lot of discussion concerning the medical system and people’s health problems. Some holds the view that the government needs to invest more money in instituting hospitals and increasing heath-related facilities, while still others think keeping healthy is simply an individual problem. Upon this I am convinced that people’s health in a society is the responsibility of both the government and each individual.
To establish hospitals and offer medical services are part of the government’s role. Citizens pay taxes, so they are entitled to such basic services. If there were no public hospitals, many poor people would not be able to get access to necessary medical treatment and probably not so serious diseases would go worse and finally led to terrible consequences. Then, it would be the failure and the embarrassment of the government to be unable to provide the basic sense of security for low-income people.
Though it has been argued that the government should take it as its responsibility to build hospitals and offer public medical services for people, each individual in the society needs also to take special care of themselves. After all, once a person becomes ill, it is him/her that suffers not the government. So individuals in daily life may take some sports, such as playing basketball, tennis, etc.. Furthermore, we may go to gym regularly to exercise our body in order to be stronger.
Having discussed the problem so far, I tend to harbor the view that not only the government are supposed to provide basic medical infrastructure like hospitals and clinics and give services to people of all social classes, but the individuals themselves also needs to elevate their consciousness to be more intent on keeping fit and healthy.
