Read the text carefully to do the following activities.
Corruption, an undeniable reality in the health sector, is perhaps the most serious ethical crisis in
medicine today. However, it remains poorly addressed in scholarly journals and by professional associations
of physicians and bioethicists. Corruption in healthcare can take different forms in its implications in health
and medicine.
Corruption traps millions of people in poverty, spreads the existing inequalities in income and health,
drains the available resources, undermines people's access to healthcare, increases the costs of patient care
and contributes to ill health and suffering by setting up a vicious cycle. No public health programme can
succeed in a setting in which scarce resources are siphoned off, depriving especially the disadvantaged and
poor of essential healthcare. Quality care cannot be provided by a healthcare delivery system in which
kickbacks and bribery are a part of life.
The medical profession, historically considered a noble one, and the bioethics community cannot escape
their moral responsibility in the face of this tragic reality. There is a need to engage in public discussions
and take a stand against unethical and corrupt practices in healthcare and medicine for the sake of the
individual's well-being as well as for social good.
Adapted from Indian Journal of Medical Ethics, July 2013.

PART ONE: Reading (15 points)

A/ Comprehension (08 pts)
Read the text carefully to do the following activities.
A new phenomenon is taking hold across the world - "shrinkflation". This is when companies reduce
the size of their products or range of services while maintaining prices. It is in reaction to the rising prices of
raw materials needed in the production process. Another tactic being used is to place smaller numbers of
items in larger boxes, providing an illusion to shoppers that they are getting more for their money. Shrinking
the size of products is in effect a cost-cutting strategy. Manufacturers are relying on psychology here. They
know that consumers are more sensitive to price than quantity or quality. Most shoppers will still make a
regular purchase, even if it has shrunk, as long as the price has not risen.
A chocolate bar company has resorted to shrinking the size of one of its flagship products by 10 per
cent to maintain its bottom line. A company spokesperson said: "We look to absorb costs in this difficult
environment so we have had to make the decision to slightly reduce the weight of chocolate bars for the first
time since 2012, so that we can keep them competitive." The service industry is also being inventive to try to
refrain from raising prices. The hotel chains Hilton and Marriott have made daily housekeeping services
"opt in". This means that guests must now request the cleaning of their room. Many other free services we
have taken for granted are on the wane and being shrunk.
