📖 題組:
Almost 2 billion people lack access to essential medicines. This deprivation causes immense and avoidable suffering: ill health, pain, fear, loss of dignity and life. Improving access to existing medicines could save 10 million lives each year, 4 million of them in Africa and South-East Asia. Besides deprivation, gross inequity in access to medicines remains the overriding feature of the world pharmaceutical situation. Average per capita spending on medicines in high income countries is 100 times higher than in low-income countries: about US$ 400 compared with US$ 4. WHO estimates that 15 percent of the world's population consumes over 90 percent of the world's production of pharmaceuticals. Especially, national supply systems for medicines often do not reach those living in poverty. The human right to health means that everyone has the right to the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health, which includes access to all medical services, sanitation, adequate food, decent housing, healthy working conditions, and a clean environment. The human right to health guarantees a system of health protection for all. Everyone has the right to the health care they need and to living conditions that enable us to be healthy, such as adequate food, housing, and a healthy environment. Existing national and international policies, rules and institutions give rise to these massive deprivations and inequalities. Our current goals include reducing child mortality, improving maternal health, and combating HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases in the world.

思路引導 VIP
當我們觀察到高收入國家與低收入國家的醫藥支出相差高達百倍時,請回想文章最後一段的敘述:作者認為這種巨大的生存差異,是源於個人的選擇(如儲蓄習慣),還是歸因於國家與國際間運作的某種「特定架構」呢?

文本邏輯的驗證
這道題目的核心在於理解全球醫藥不公的根源。文章第一段明確指出,醫藥取得的「總體不平等」(Gross inequity)是當前全球藥學現狀的最顯著特徵。隨後在第三段,作者更進一步點出深層原因:現行的國家與國際政策、規則以及制度(policies, rules and institutions),正是導致這些大規模匱乏與不平等的「起因」(give rise to)。因此,選項 (A) 最能精確對應文中描述的不對等現象。
