2.I think that the two ideas are false,the NHS is free for all you need,and this is correct.
3.I think that the two ideas are true,normally went you need to go to the hospital you don't go for funny thinks,so the worst problem is that if you have to pay for all.
4.The two are true.The first part says something about pay a contribution,is normal if you have a free Health system all the people have too pay, the second is a bad idea,I think that some pepople needs a lot of pills and if you hava to pay a lot...
5.The first is false, some treatment are free for example with kids and old persons.The second I think is true,sometimes are for emergency.

9.I think the two are false because you have the liberty of have an abortion or not,I dont know if that is free or not.And whit the second idea I think that this isn't normal.
10.The first for me is false because in all the countries they have private surgeries so in England is the same.The second I think is true you have a help from the NHS because the glasses are too expensive.

The abbreviation NHS is for the National Health Service, which is a organization that gives free medical service although you have to pay for some things, for example if you visit the doctor's consultation. But if you go to a doctor you don’t have to pay anything, and if you stay at the hospital, the regimen and the surgery are free too.
People who have a permanent job must pay a weekly contribution to the NHS and some money if the doctor gives you a prescription to buy medication.
Foreigners don’t have to pay to stay in the hospital if they are in the UK and if they have an accident they don’t take charge of the treatment, they only have to pay before coming if they want to be cured.
Future mothers don’t need to requite anything until the baby has one month because up then the treatment is free.
Also abortion isn’t forbidden in Britain and when someone dies, the family gets some money from the NHS.
In England are some private surgeries, but the NHS helps people giving grants to pay some things,or part of them like the glasses.

DIALOGUE AT THE CHEMIST'S
At the chemist, a man who is on holiday somewhere comes with stomach discomfort and headache. He says he's got diarrhoea since he went to bed and that he has to go to the bathroom very very often. He also says he feels very tired and that he's very thirsty but he hasn't drink much water. He's taking some pills for indigestion but they don't seem to work so the chemist tells him that the cause might be something heavy he ate and gives him a preparation called dia-stop. He's got to take it 3 times a day for three days.
