答案解析：

56.B）。

定位由题干中的governments及seekingwaystoreducethehealth-carespending定位到文章第一段第一句：

Caughtinasqueezebetweenthehealthneedsofagingpopulationsononehandandthefinancialcrisisontheother，governmentseverywherearelookingforwaystoslowthegrowthinhealth-carespending.

详解推理判断题。

由定位句可知，各国政府一方面面临老龄化人群的健康需求，另一方面受到金融危机的影响，所以都在寻求减少医疗保健开支的途径，B）符合题意。

第一段第二句提到theyarelookingtothegenetic-drugsindustryasasavior，但是普通药物只是各国政府减少开支的一个方法，并不是他们这么做的原因，故排除A）;C）的说法在文中没有提及;本段最后一句提到Thatgreed...coststaxpayersnearlyC$1billionayear.这里是说药店的贪心导致纳税人受损，并不是说保健花费的问题，故排除D）。

57.D）。

定位由题干中的thereportissuedbytheEuropeanCommission定位到文章第二段第一句：

ThenonNovember28ththeEuropeanCommissionissuedthepreliminaryresults...

详解事实细节题。

定位句提到，11月28日欧洲委员会发布的一个初步调查报告，下文开始对该报告进行描述，由第二段最后一句NeelieKroes，theEUscompetitioncommissioner，sayssheisreadytotakelegalactioniftheevidenceallows.可推断如果证据充足，委员们会采取行动，D）符合题意。

第二段第二句提到thedrugsfirmsuseavarietyofunfairstrategiestoprotecttheirexpensivedrugsbydelayingtheentryofcheapergenericopponents，可见药物公司使用了不公平的竞争手段，推迟普通药物的上市，故排除A）、B）;该句前半句提到Thereportreachedadamning，thoughprovisional，conclusion...，可见该报告的结论只是暂时的，并不是最终结论（ultimateconclusion），故排除C）。

58.B）
