Task：
Some people think healthcare should be made free for all people, while others believe people should pay for healthcare by themselves. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Analysis：
这个题目要求进行双边讨论。那么，我们就应该先考虑免费医疗的好处和坏处，然后考虑自己支付的好处和坏处，然后提出自己的观点。那么，免费医疗有哪些好处呢?可以想到的就是，如果免费医疗，人们就不会再担忧昂贵的医疗费用，尤其是对于社会上那些难以支付医疗费用的人来说，他们的身体健康就能得到比较好的保障，进而言之，他们的幸福感就会增加，而整个社会的和谐程度就随之增加。但是，这样的政策会给国家的财政带来巨大的负担，从而减少政府在教育，环保等方面的投资，再考虑自己支付医疗费用有哪些好处?自己支付医疗费用，人们就会更注重自己的身体健康，同时减轻政府的财政压力，但坏处就是贫穷的人可能得不到较好的治疗。考虑到这两个方面后，我觉得可以提出这样的观点：医疗费用是否免费应该根据不同人群的收入状况。对于那些高收入人群来说，他们应该支付医疗费用;但对于那些低收入家庭而言，政府应该最大限度地减免其医疗费用。这样社会才会更公平，更和谐。
Sample Answer：
Should healthcare be made free for all people, or should people pay healthcare all by themselves? This is a question that faces many governments nowadays in the world.
On the one hand, many people hold the opinion that healthcare should be free. They argue that, if the healthcare is free, people will not have to worry about the expensive healthcare expenses. This is particularly important for those economically under priviledged. With free healthcare, they can go to hospital whenever they find there is anything wrong with their health without worrying about money. This will, of course, enhance their sense of well-being and the entire society will become much more harmonious. My uncle is a good example. He developed T.B. when he was at his 50s. He would be dead now but for the free healthcare policy practiced in the region where he lives. Now he and his family are very much grateful to the local government and would do everything for it.
On the other hand, there are many others who think people should pay for healthcare by themselves. Free healthcare, in their opinion, will put a huge amount of financial burden onto the government budget, which should go to more important sectors such as education and environmental protection. In addition, if people pay for their own healthcare, they will have more momentum to go in for physical exercises, and this is of course a better way to protect their health than going to hospital.
If people have to pay for their own healthcare, I think many problems may arise. The most serious one is that those poor people cannot enjoy healthcare because they are not able to afford the healthcare costs. If we take that factor into account, we may safely conclude that whether healthcare should be made free or not is dependent upon the people who receive it. If a man is rich enough to pay for his healthcare, he should be made to pay; but if a man is not rich enough, he should also receive medical care without having to pay. Only by doing so, can all people, rich and poor, enjoy the same healthcare services and live in a more just, peaceful and harmonious world.（369 words）
