Any country has good reason to want its citizens to be as healthy as possible, since one of its greatest resources is an active population. No country wants its people to suffer unnecessarily from ill health. This was the kind of thinking which led to the introduction of a health service in many countries. In Britain this has developed into a “Welfare State” in which all citizens, rich and poor alike, can get most health treatment free. The money for this is partially raised by contributions from employers and employees. As three decades have shown, such automatic arrangements are not always ideal and there are arguments for and against the Health Service. The number of patients treated every year and the cost of treatment are much greater than was estimated. This means that the people who work for the Health Service—doctors, nurses and other hospital staff—have much more routine work to do and as a result they have little time for preventive medicine.

A. the Health Service is introduced to many other countries by Britain

C. an active population is the greatest resource in Britain

Dear Mr. Cavendish,
I am writing to apply for the position as the general assistant that you recently advertised in newspaper. I take keen interest in the post because I find that my major and experiences well meet the requirements you stated in the advertisement.
Being interested in management and English, I pursued my graduate study in the direction of Public Relations in Sichuan International Studies University, and got a Master’s Degree in 2005. I was a top student through the three academic years, as can be shown in the enclosed resume and reports. After graduation, I ever have been a tour guide in a travel agency. As Shanghai is my hometown and I love it very much, I have decided to move back and so I venture to apply for the position in your company.
If I were favored with an interview, I would be most grateful. Please contact me at 139××××2398. Thank you for your consideration.
Best wishes.
Yours sincer
