d. Spanish, to improve employment opportunities
ANS: D
By 2050, Hispanic children as a percentage of the population are expected to
grow to 32%, up from 25% in 2015. The percentage of children who are
Hispanic has increased faster than that of any other racial or ethnic group. More
immigrants speak Spanish, and care providers need to give culturally
appropriate care. Speaking Spanish would be helpful. Because of these reasons,
it would be most appropriate for Spanish to be selected as the required foreign
language. Speaking French, German, or Latin would not be as practical as being
able to speak Spanish.

comparison of a country’s health status?
a. Every country, regardless of other priorities, focuses on care of
infants and their mothers.
b. It is easy to obtain and compare such data.
c. It reflects medical care quality and access and public health practice.
d. The World Health Organization requires these data be reported to them each
year.
ANS: C
It is an important marker because it is related to several factors, including
maternal health, medical care quality and access, socioeconomic conditions, and
public health practices. Infant mortality reflects the health and welfare of an
entire community and is used as a broad indicator of health care and health
status.

6. Which statement best describes how the United States compares with other
countries on infant mortality rate?
a. Best of all the industrialized nations
b. About in the middle of the industrialized nations
c. Near the bottom of the industrialized nations
d. Gradually improving among the industrialized nations

ANS: C
The United States ranks a dismal 27th in infant mortality behind most other
industrialized nations, including Japan, Sweden, Spain, Hong Kong, Italy,
France, and Canada. Fifty years ago, the United States ranked 12th. The gap in
infant mortality between the United States and other nations has occurred in
spite of the United States' comparatively high per capita spending on health
care and technological advancements.
