If national health insurance would not
cure the problems of the American healthcare system, what, then, is responsible
for them Suspicion falls heavily on hospitals, which make up the largest

Sometimes we can not believe our eyes. Here is an example. If we are standing in front of an entrance of a tunnel, we can see the other end where we go out. We feel the entrance much bigger than the other end. If we go through the tunnel, we find that the ends are the same size. One is not bigger than the other. They are the same. Now let’s turn around and look through the tunnel from the other end. Now we find that the end near us looks bigger. The other end looks smaller. But we know that they are the same size. Things that are near us seem big. Things that are far away from us seem small. We know that one lamp-post in the streets is just like another. They are all equally tall. But if an artist draws a picture of a street he will not make the lamp-posts all the same size. He will make the first one big, A. Right. B. Wrong. C. Doesn’t say. 我来回答: 提交
