【句子解析】
第一句：
negotiating in good faith with striking doctors, and bringing the dispute to an end, would be a start.
参考译文：以真诚的态度与罢工的医生们谈判，并结束争端，会是一个开始。
第二句：
refusing significant pay demands is a false economy when it drives clinicians to seek better terms abroad and depletes the goodwill – expressed as unpaid overtime – that keeps the nhs wheels turning.
参考译文：拒绝大幅涨薪的要求是一种虚假的节俭，因为它会令临床医生们在国外寻求更好的条件，并耗尽让国民健康服务体持续运转的善意——这种善意的表现是无偿加班。
第三句：
a constant churn in staff is a significant factor in chronic low productivity in the service, despite relatively high levels of recruitment in recent years.
参考译文：尽管近年来的招聘水平相对较高，但员工的不断流失是医疗服务的工作效率长期低下的一个重要因素。
【答案及解析】
it can be inferred from the text that__.
从文中可以得知__。
a.clinicians are usually very well-paid in the uk
（在英国，临床医生通常收入很高）
b.doctors usually strike when they want vacation
（医生通常在想休假时罢工）
c.high employee turnover lowered productivity
（高员工流动率降低了生产率）
d.refusing to pay doctors properly can save a lot
（拒绝给医生适当的报酬可以节省很多钱）
答案选c。
这个就是最后一句话表达的意思，这里考了一个非常重要的同义替换，就是churn in staff和mployee turnover，这个是一定要背下来的，说的都是员工流失、员工流动。
a选项，肯定不是，文中都说了这些医生要去国外找更好的发展；
b选项，没有谈到；
d选项，第一句话就说了，这是一种虚假的节俭，你不给医生报酬，最后医生都流失了，贪小便宜吃大亏。

【文章背景】
英国政府将最近年轻医生们的罢工描述为病患受苦的原因，但实际上更准确的理解就是：罢工是沉疴已久的医疗系统的一个症状。的确，取消手术和延误治疗会影响医疗服务，而医护人员长期不能获得合理的酬劳则是系统性衰退绕不过去的根本原因。公众也早就有所察觉。选民们认为，英国国民健康服务体系的状况十分堪忧，是仅次于生活成本飙升的第二大民生问题。而民意调查更是显示，民众对于医疗服务的满意度处于历史新低，这个结果毫不出奇，因为目前看病的等待时间已经失控。约有740万人目前正在等待治疗，而在上个月，有50万人等待了超过4小时才看上急诊，其中有上万人的等待时间超过12小时。这已经是一个政客们不能忽视的危机。若政府拒绝给医护人员提供合理的报酬，那么不堪重负的医疗从业人员可能会寻求国外更好的就业机会，进一步加深目前人员不足的难题，延长已经不可接受的治疗等待时间。

but university of illinois chicago sociologist junia howell argued at the hearing that this kind of algorithm might simply recycle the racial disparities that already exist. that’s because past and present home sales data are tainted by historical practices like redlining and racial segregation that have consistently devalued homes in communities of color compared to those in predominantly white neighborhoods.“we can have all the data in the world — every single appraisal for the last 200 years could be accessed,” said howell. “if we are still using the same assumptions about space and race, we’re going to perpetuate the same problem.”
