Health Insurance in the U.S. Is Getting More Expensive
míng nián明年 ,měi guó美国dà yuē大约yǒu有wǔ bǎi wàn五百万rén人mǎi bù qǐ买不起yī liáo bǎo xiǎn医疗保险 。
Next year, about five million people in the U.S. won't be able to afford health insurance.
wǒ我yě也shì是qí zhōng其中zhī yī之一 。
wǒ我de的jiā tíng家庭bǎo xiǎn保险měi yuè每月yào要 2600měi yuán美元 ,wǒ men我们gēn běn根本fù付bù不qǐ起 。
My family insurance costs $2,600 a month, which we simply cannot afford.
xiàn zài现在 ,wǒ我hé和hěn很duō多rén人yī yàng一样 ,méi yǒu没有bǎo xiǎn保险 。
Now, like many others, I have no insurance.
méi yǒu没有bǎo xiǎn保险ràng让wǒ我hěn很dān xīn担心 ,yīn wèi因为kàn bìng看病huì会hěn很guì贵 ,ér qiě而且wǒ我jiā lǐ家里yǒu rén有人dé得guò过rǔ xiàn ái乳腺癌 。
Not having insurance worries me because medical care is expensive, and someone in my family has had breast cancer.
wǒ men我们zhǐ néng只能gěi给jiā lǐ家里sì四gè个rén人zhōng中de的liǎng两gè个rén人mǎi买bǎo xiǎn保险 ,zhè这ràng让wǒ men我们hěn很nán难xuǎn zé选择 。
We can only buy insurance for two out of four family members, which makes it hard to choose.
měi guó美国zhèng fǔ政府měi nián每年huā花hěn很duō多qián钱mǎi买wǔ qì武器hé和dǎ zhàng打仗 ,dàn但què却bù不yuàn yì愿意duō多huā qián花钱bāng zhù帮助rén men人们mǎi买bǎo xiǎn保险 。
The U.S. government spends a lot of money every year on weapons and wars but is unwilling to spend more to help people buy insurance.
qí shí其实 ,gěi给dà jiā大家mǎi买bǎo xiǎn保险de的qián钱bǐ比mǎi买yī一sōu艘jūn jiàn军舰de的qián钱hái还shǎo少 。
Actually, the money to buy insurance for everyone is less than the cost of one warship.
hěn很duō多jiā tíng家庭yīn wèi因为mǎi bù qǐ买不起bǎo xiǎn保险ér而hěn很nán难shēng huó生活 。
Many families struggle to live because they cannot afford insurance.
wǒ men我们xī wàng希望zhèng fǔ政府néng能duō多guān xīn关心rén men人们de的jiàn kāng健康 ,ér而bú shì不是zhǐ只guān xīn关心zhàn zhēng战争 。
We hope the government cares more about people's health instead of only focusing on war.
