(1) The cost of cancer diagnostics, operation or removal and cancer treatment are overwhelming to the victim and to their families as well. I should know, several of my family members have died from cancer over the last 13 years. Getting cancer insurance can help ease these financial burdens and give peace of mind to you and your family.What many people don’t realize is most regular health insurance policies do not cover cancer treatment. (2)Some treatments are very expensive. Expenses for cost of travel to a cancer treatment facility are not also covered by health insurance policies.My friend’s wife had cancer and thank God she survived. During the treatment, they had to coordinate transportation from friends to a get her to her daily treatments. This caused a lot of stress on my friend. (3) I pay about $88 bucks a month. It would have been cheaper $47, but I got the kind that returns all of my premiums to me after 25 years minus any money that has been paid out on claims. (4) I am still amazed at how robust the plan is. It has a rider that pays $350 per pay to me if any of us need radiation or chemo therapy. This would cover me for missed work ortransportation costs or to hire friends to help in any way I need.(5) The coverage for this type of insurance may comprise of： Treatments while being an in-patient as well as being an out-patient. This includes radiation, chemotherapy, medications, etc; Transportation and living expense if cancer treatment is made out of town. Payment of traveling expenses for specialists may also be part of the coverage; Ambulance or air ambulance service when needed by the victim; Full-time nursing care and facility when treatment is made away from the victim’s residence; Reconstruction and prosthesis may be part of the insurance plan; Special diagnostic tests needed to determine type of cancer may be covered by the plan.A.Most health insurance policies do not cover this “specified disease” or “dreaded disease”.B.

2019年职称英语(理工类)补全短文文章及译文2 How Deafness Makes It Easier to HearMost people think of Beethoven's hearing loss as an obstacle to composing music. However, he produced his most powerful works in the last decade of his life when he was completely deaf.This is one of the most glorious cases of the triumph of will over adversity, but his biographer, Maynard Solomon, takes a different view. 1 . In his deaf world Beethoven could experiment, free from the sounds of the outside world, free to create new forms and harmonies. Hearing loss does not seem to affect the musical ability of musicians who become deaf. They continue to"hear" music with as much, or greater, accuracy than if they were actually hearing it being played.2 . He described a fascinating phenomenon that happenedwithin three months：" my former musical experiences began to play back to me. I couldn't differentiate between what I heard and real hearing. 2 After many years, it is still rewarding to listen to these playbacks, to ' hear' music which is new to me and to find many quiet accompaniments for all of my moods. "How is it that the world we see, touch, hear, and smellis both"out there" and at the same time within us? There is no better example of this connection between external stimulus and internal perception than the cochlear implant.3 . However, it might be possible to use the brain's remarkable power to make sense of the electrical signals the implant produces.When Michael Edgar first" switched on" his cochlear implant,the sound's he heard were not at all clear. Gradually, with much hard work, he began to identify everyday sounds.For example," The insistent ringing of the telephone became clear almost at once. "The primary purpose of the implant is to allow communication with others. When people spoke to Eagar, he heard their voices "coming through like a long-distance telephone call on a poor connection. " But when it came tohis beloved music, the implant was of no help. 4 . He said,"I play the piano as I used to and hear it in my head at the same time. The movement of my fingers and the feel of thekeys give added ' clarity' to hearing in my head. ''Cochlear implants allow the deaf to hear again in a way that is not perfect, but which can change their lives. 5 . Even the most amazing cochlear implants would have been useless to Beethoven as he composed his Ninth Symphony at the end of his life。

2019年职称英语理工类补全短文模拟习题及答案（1）Mobile PhonesMobile phones should carry a label if they proved1 to bea dangerous source of radiation, according to Robert Bell, a scientist. And no more mobile phone transmitter towers should be built until the long-term health effects of the electromagnetic radiation they emit are scientifically evaluated, he said. “Nobody’s going to drop dead overnight2 but we should be asking for more scientific information，” Robert Bell said at a conference on the health effects oflow-level radiation. ____1____A report widely circulated among the public says that upto now scientists do not really know enough to guaranteethere are no ill-effects on humans from electromagnetic radiation. According to Robert Bell, there are 3. 3 million mobile phones in Australia alone and they are increasing by2,000 a day3. ____2____As well, there are 2,000 transmitter towers around Australia, many in high density residential areas5.____3____The electromagnetic radiation emitted from these towers may have already produced some harmful effects on the health of the residents nearby.Robert Bell suggests that until more research is completed the Government should ban construction of phone towers from within a 500 metre radius of school grounds,child care centres, hospitals, sports playing fields and residential areas with a high percentage of children.____4____ He adds that there is also evidence that if cancersufferers are subjected to electromagnetic waves the growth rate of the disease accelerates.____5____ According to Robert Bell, it is reasonable for the major telephone companies to fund it. Besides, he also urges the Government to set up a wide-ranging inquiry into possible health effects.练习：A He says there is emerging evidence that children absorb low-level radiation at a rate more than three timesthat of adults6.B By the year 20004 it is estimated that Australia will have 8 million mobile phones ：nearly one for every two people.C “If mobile phones are found to be dangerous, they should carry a warning label until proper shields can be devised,” he said.D Then who finances the research?E For example, Telstra, Optus and Vodaphone build their towers where it is geographically suitable to them and disregard the need of the community.F The conclusion is that mobile phones brings more harm than benefit.答案与题解：1.C “空1”应该填入与low-level radiation相关的内容，例如：low-level radiation究竟有害还是无害。

Conservation or Wasted Effort?The black robin (旅鸫) is one of the world's rarest birds.It is a small, wild bird, and it lives only on the island of Little Mangere, off the coast of New Zealand. In 1967 there were about fifty black robins there; in 1977 there were fewer than ten.46Energetic steps are being taken to preserve the black robin.47 The idea is to buy an-other island nearby as a special home, a “reserve”, for threatened wild life, including black robins. The organizers say that Little Mangere should then be restocked (重新准备) with the robin's food. Thousands of the required plants are at present being cultivated in New Zealand.Is all this concern a waste of human effort? 48 Are we losing our sense of what is reasonable and what is unreasonable?In the earth's long, long past hundreds of kinds of creatures have evolved, risen to a degree of success and died out. In the long, long future there will be many new and different forms of life. Those creatures that adapt themselves successfully to what the earth offers will survive for a long time.49 This is nature's proven method of operation.The rule of selection “the survival of the fittest” is the one by which human beings have themselves arrived on the scene. We, being one of the most adaptable creatures the earth has yet produced, may last longer than most, 50 You may take it as another rule that when, at last, human beings show signs of dying out, no other creature will extend a paw (爪) to postpone our departure. On the contrary, we will be hurried out.Life seems to have grown too tough for black robins. I leave you to judge whether we should try to do anything about it.A Some creatures, certain small animals, insects and birds, will almost certainly outlast (比……长久)man, for they seem even more adaptable.B Those that fail to meet the challenges will disappear early.C Detailed studies are going on, and a public appeal for money has been made.D Both represent orders in the classification of life.E Is it any business of ours whether the black robin survives or dies out?F These are the only black robins left in the world.。
