2008年5月机经归纳

windfloydUID：2345009

从5月5号换题库以后的，印度+韩国+中国，放在一起了，有点乱，综合了前面的同学的总结。看不懂韩文，只从韩网把英语单词考了过来（字体加黑了），单词下面我是从蓝宝里找到的这个单词的所有相关类反。

PS:再强调一遍，不能全指望机经，一道机经题也碰不到的情况也是有的……

Argument Topic:

1. The following appeared in a newspaper feature story. "At the small, nonprofit hospital in the town of Saluda, the average length of a patient's stay is two days; at the large, for-profit hospital in the nearby city of Megaville, the average patient stay is six days. Also, the cure rate among patients in the Saluda hospital is about twice that of the Megaville hospital. The Saluda hospital has more employees per patient than the hospital in Megaville, and there are few complaints about service at the local hospital. Such data indicate that treatment in smaller, nonprofit hospitals is more economical and of better quality than treatment in larger, for-profit hospitals."
