考题共用题干第一篇A New Strategy to Overcome Breast CancerPost-menopausal（绝经后的）women who walk for an hour a day can cut their chance of breast cancer significantly,a study has suggested.The report,which followed 73,000 women for 17 years,found walking for at least seven hours a week lowered the risk of the disease.The American Cancer Society team said this was the first time reduced risk was specifically linked to walking.UK experts said it was more evidence that lifestyle influenced cancer risk.A recent poll for the charity Ramblers found a quarter of adults walk for no more than an hour a week, but being active is known to reduce the risk of a number of cancers.This study,,published in Cancer Epidemiology,Biomarkers&Prevention,followed 73,615 women out of 97,785 aged 50-74 who had been recruited by the American Cancer Society between 1992 and 1993,so it could monitor the incidence of cancer in the group.They were asked to complete questionnaires on their health and on how much time they were active and participating in activities such as walking , swimming and aerobics（有氧运动）and how much time they spent sitting,watching television or reading.They completed the same questionnaires at, two-year intervals between 1997 and 2009.Of the women,47%said walking was their only recreational activity.Those who walked for at least seven hours per week had a 14%lower risk of breast cancer compared to those who walked three or fewer hours per week.Dr.Alpa Patel,a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society in Atianta Georgia,who led the study,said:"Given that more than 60% of women report some daily walking,promoting walking as a healthy leisure-time activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity amongst post-menopausal women.We were pleased to find that without any other recreational activity,just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower risk of breast cancer in these women." " More strenuous（紧张的） and longer activities lowered the risk even more."Baroness Delyth Morgan,chief executive of Breast Cancer Campaign,said:"This study adds further evidence that our lifestyle choices can play a part in influencing the risk of breast cancer and even small changes incorporated into our normal day-to-day activity can make a difference."She added:"We know that the best weapon to overcoming breast cancer is the ability to stop it occurring in the first place.The challenge now is how we turn these findings into action and identify other sustainable lifestyle changes that will help us prevent breast cancer."All of the following factors relating to cancer risk were mentioned in the passage EXCEPT_______.A:regular walkingB:breathing exerciseC:recreational activityD:lifestyle choices

考题共用题干第三篇A New Strategy to Overcome Breast CancerPost-menopausal（绝经后的）women who walk for an hour a day can cut their chance of breast cancersignificantly,a study has suggested.The report,which followed 73,000 women for 17 years,found walking for at least seven hours a week lowered the risk of the disease.The American Cancer Society team said this was the first time reduced risk was specifically linked to walking.UK experts said there was more evidence that lifestyle influenced cancer risk.A recent poll for the charity Ramblers found a quarter of adults walk for no more than an hour a week, but being active is known to reduce the risk of a number of cancers.This study,published in CancerEpidemiology,Biomarkers&Prevention,followed 73,615 women out of 97,785 aged 50-74 who had been recruited by the American Cancer Society between 1992 and 1993,so it could monitor the incidence of cancer in the group.They were asked to complete questionnaires on their health and on how much time they were active and participating in activities such as walking, swimming and aerobics（有氧运动）and how much time they spentsitting watching television or reading.They completed the same questionnaires at two-year intervals between 1997 and 2009.Of the women,47%said walking was their only recreational activity.Those who walked for at least seven hours per week had a 14%lower risk of breast cancer compared to those who walked three or fewer hours per week.Dr.Alpa Patel,a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society in Atlanta,Georgia,who led the study,said:"Given that more than 60%of women report some daily walking,promoting walking as ahealthy leisure-time activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity amongst post-menopausal women.We were pleased to find that without any other recreational activity,just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower risk of breast cancer in these women."" More strenuous（紧张的）and longer activities lowered the risk even more."Baroness Delyth Morgan,chief executive of Breast Cancer Campaign,said:"This study adds further evidence that our lifestyle choices can play a part in influencing the risk of breast cancer and even small changes incorporated into our normal day-to-day activity can make a difference."She added:"We know that the best weapon to overcoming breast cancer is the ability to stop it occurring in the first place.The challenge now is how we turn these findings into action and identify other sustainable lifestyle changes that will help us prevent breast cancer."Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A:Most women take walking as their only recreational activity.B:The study aims to track the health conditions of its subjects.C:Walking was the only recreational activity for about half of the women.D:Irregular walking increased the risk of breast cancer in post-menopausal women.

考题共用题干 Breast Cancer Deaths Record LowThe number of women dying from breast cancer has fallen to a record low by dropping under 12,000 a year for the first time since records began.The Cancer Research UK data showed that 11,990 women died in the UK in 2007.The previous lowest figure had been recorded in 1 97 1一 the year records began一after which it rose steadily year by year until the late 1980s.Professor Peter Johnson,Cancer Research UK's chief clinician,said,"It's incredibly encouraging to see fewer women dying from breast cancer now than at any time in the last 40 years,despite breast cancer being diagnosed more often.""Research has played a crucial role in this progress,leading to improved treatments and better management for women with the disease."" The introduction of the NHS（国民保健制度）breast screening program has also contributed as the earlier cancer is diagnosed,women are more likely to survive."Breast cancer is now the most common cancer in the UK with 45,500 women every year diagnosed with the disease一a 50% rise in 25 years.The number of deaths peaked in 1989,when 15,625 women died.It then fell by between 200 and 400 deaths each year until 2004.There was a slight rise in 2005 and then two years of falls.Dr. Sarah Cant,policy manager at Breakthrough Breast Cancer,said,"It is great news that fewer women are dying from breast cancer and highlights the impact of improved treatments,breast screening and awareness of the disease.""However,there are still too many women affected and the incidence of the disease is increasing year byyear.,,The rising rate of breast cancer diagnosis has been put down to a variety of factors including obesity （肥胖）and alcohol consumption.The rate of breast cancer diagnosis in the UK has been dropping.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned

考题共用题干 Screen Test1 Every year millions of women are screened with X-rays to pick up signs of breast cancer. If this happens early enough,the disease can often be treated successfully.According to a survey published last year,2 1 countries have screening programs.Nine of them,including Australia,Canada,the US and Spain, screen women under 50.2 But the medical benefits of screening these younger women are controversial,partly because the radiation brings a small risk of inducing cancer. Also,younger women must be given higher doses of X-raysbecause their breast tissue is denser.3 Researchers at the Polytechnic University of Valencia analyzed the effect of screening more than 160,000 women at 11 local clinics.After estimating the women's cumulative dose of radiation,they used two models to calculate the number of extra cancers this would cause.4 The mathematical model recommended by Britain's National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB)predicted that the screening program would cause 36 cancers per 100,000 women,18 of them fatal.The model preferred by the UN Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation led to a lower figure of 20 cancers.5 The researchers argue that the level of radiation-induced cancers is"not very significant"compared to the far larger number of cancers that are discovered and treated.The Valencia program,they say,detects between 300 and 450 cases of breast cancer in every 100,000 women screened.6 But they point out that the risk of women contracting cancer from radiation could be reduced by between 40 and 80 percent if screening began at 50 instead of 45,because they would be exposed to less radiation.The results of their study,they suggest,could help"optimize the technique"for breast cancer screening.7 "There is a trade-off between the diagnostic benefits of breast screening and its risks," admits Michael Clark of the NRPB.But he warns that the study should be interpreted with caution."On the basis of the current data,for every 10 cancers successfully detected and prevented there is a risk of causing one later in life.That'S why radiation exposure should be minimized in any screening program."Early discovery of breast cancer may________.A:be costlyB:harmfulC:save a lifeD:still open to debateE:reduce the risk of radiation triggering a cancerF:reduced to the minimum
