好难的问题呀！第一遍我一个答案都没看出来，回头再看的时候才选A。

政府禁止处方药涨价，处方药的销量并没有上升。但是A则是说大量代替旧药的新药上市，由于新药的价格通常比旧药高（常识），所以一样能够起到加大处方药支出的效果。 所以选A

连这种“常识”也要考吗？ETS折磨人的方式真是变化多端呀

如果新药是由于技术进步引起的，不是更便宜嘛。

8过，这题其他选项就更扯不上了，只好这么理解了。

谢谢~

为什么E不行。。外国高价药占领V的市场，人们expenditure就上升了，不是也是一种解释吗

几年，每人的消费在处方药上每年上升15%。为了不让他涨，机构让药厂不涨价。处方药的用点没变，每人的消费还是上去了

限制的是“Raise“ ，涨价；但是新药可以定价高
