W: You are quite right! He's just kidding] He's also told me time and time again he wished to study for some profession instead of going into business.
Q: What will Tom probably do according to the conversation?

A.Study for some profession.
B.Attend a medical school.

M: I think so. One unexpected medical emergency can drain your financial resources leaving you with no money to pay for school. As a result, you'll have no choice but to return to your own country.
W: How can I get health insurance?
M: You really have two basic choices for health insurance: obtain international insurance in your home country before you depart or student health insurance once you arrive.
W: Then how to get international insurance?
M: As for international insurance, you'll have to pay the medical costs in full on your own. If you have sufficient funds, then this won't be a problem.
W: Oh, that seems not suitable for me. What about the second option?
M: As for the second option, you'll probably just have to pay a certain percentage, and the company will pay their part.
W: That sounds good. Then what should we note when signing the insurance agreement?
M: Well, be sure to clearly understand the terms of the agreement you sign with the insurance company. There are often a number of limitations and restrictions with the policy, and understanding them up will reduce the number of misunderstandings that could arise.
W: Oh, I see.
M: It is wise of you to consider; health insurance before going abroad to study. However, many students only think about insurance when it is too late as they sit in the hospital's emergency room. So get insurance to help you pay for your medical expenses; otherwise, you might not have money for tomorrow's school tuition.
W: Well, I think I've got all the information I need. Thank you so much, Mr. Green.
M: You're welcome.

We assumed that students were "educated about professional conduct online and used better judgment." But medical students, it seems, are no different from the rest of us when it comes to posting drunken party pictures online or tweeting about their daily comings, goings and musings — however inappropriate they may be. Many students feel they are entitled to post what they wish on their personal profiles, maintaining that the information is in fact personal and not subject to the same policies and guidelines that govern their professional behavior. on campus. Though medical students would agree that physicians — and other professionals, like teachers — should be held to a higher standard of integrity by society, the new study suggests that they're confused by how rules apply, especially in cyberspace, once the white coat comes off. "They think it's something only for their friends, even though it's not private." says Dr. Neil Parker, senior associate dean for student affairs for graduate medical education at UCLA's David Geffen School of Medicine.
That attitude is largely dictated by age, says Parker. In focus groups involving students, faculty, administrators and staff, the school has found a clear generational divide between those who tend to blur the line between their personal and professional lives and those who don't. Younger students were more likely than older staff members to believe that their thoughts and opinions were valid to post online, regardless of their potentially damaging or discriminatory impact on others.
The issue is especially relevant when it comes to discussing patient cases. Laws prohibit doctors from talking about patients using individually identifiable information. However, as Parker notes, sharing patient care experiences can be a useful and powerful learning tool for medical students that encourages "reflection, empathy and understanding," he writes in the paper. Although discussing their experiences online may be allowed, students must be made aware that identifying information is not limited to patients' names and that divulging other characteristics and details often violates patient-privacy laws.
It's that type of education that medical schools need to include more in their curricula. Ensuring that students are aware of privacy settings on social-networking sites is another. "Most students want us to provide them with education and guidelines, but not policies. It is a different culture; we always say we have to be culture-sensitive to our patients, but we have to be culture-sensitive to our students as well." Parker says.

A.Many medical students treat patients unjustly.
B.Lots of medical staff violates confidentiality laws on the Internet.
C.Many medical students fail to hold high professional standard.
D.Patients' privacy needs to be protected badly.

Let&39;s face it: plane riders are stressful. For starters, cabin pressures at high altitudes are set at roughly what they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty easily, but passengers with heart disease may experience chest pains as a result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood. Low pressure can also cause the air in body cavities to expand-as much as 30%+ Again, most people won&39;t notice anything beyond mild stomach cramping. But if you&39;ve recently had an operation, your wound could open. And if&39; a medical device has been implanted in your body-a splint, a tracheotomy(气管切开术)tube or a catheter (导管)-it could expand and cause injury.
Another common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis(深静脉血栓)-the so-called economy-class syndrome, When you sit too long in a cramped position. the blood in our legs tends to clot. Most people just get sore calves. But blood clots, left untreated, could travel to the lungs, causing breathing difficulties and even death. Such clots are readily prevented by keeping blood flowing; walk and stretch your legs when possible,
Whatever you do, don&39;t panic. Things are looking up on the in-flight-emergency front. Doctors who come to passengers&39; aid used to worry about getting sued; their fears have lifted somewhat since the 1998 Aviation Medical Assistance Act gave them"good Samaritan" protection. And thanks to more recent legislation, flights with at least one attendant are starting to install emergency medical kits with automated defibrillators (电击去颤器) to treat heart attacks.
Are you still wondering if you are healthy enough to fly? If you can walk 150 it. or climb a flight of stairs without getting winded, you&39;ll probably do just fine, Having a doctor close by doesn&39;t hurt, either.
