Dear Li Hua,
How is everything? It’s great to hear from you again.
You asked me about medical care in the US. Now I’ll give you a brief introduction.
Unlike in Britain, the US does not have a national health care service. But the government does help pay for some medical care for people who are on low incomes and for old, but most people buy insurance to help pay for medical care.
When people are ill, they usually go first to a general doctor. Unlike in Britain, however, people sometimes go straight to a specialist, without seeing their general doctor first. Children are usually taken to a pediatrician.
Doctors do not go to people's homes when they are ill. People always make appointments to see the doctor in the doctor's office. In emergencies, people call for an ambulance.
Best wishes,
Sandy
经典时文背诵
Medicines
Today we talk about some separate issues with one thing in common: they all involve medicines. 
One problem is counterfeit（假冒，赝品） medicines.  These can be difficult even for highly trained medical professionals to identify.  Counterfeit drugs are made to look and feel like the real medicines whose names they are sold under.  But they do little or no good and in some cases might be harmful.  Patients also miss the chance to take the real medicines.
The World Health Organization says an estimated ten percent of the drugs sold worldwide are counterfeit.  It is difficult to identify who makes these drugs or where. 
One way that drug makers show government agencies that new medicines are safe and effective is through human trials.  Yet these can sometimes present great risks to the people involved. 
Public interest groups argue that many drug companies take too many risks in testing new medicines.  Yet the safety and effectiveness of any drug can also depend on how it is used.
