Global Cancer Rates to Rise by 50% by 2020
The number of new cancer cases worldwide is expected to increase by 50%by the year
2020.But a new report suggests that as many as a third of new cancers could be avoided
by adopting healthier lifestyles and through public health action.
The World Cancer Report,released by the International Agency for Research on
Cancer,shows that cancer has now emerged as a major public health threat in developing
countries as well as rich ones.
Overall,cancer was responsible for 12%of all deaths in 2000.But in many countries
more than a quarter of all deaths are caused by cancer.
The report shows that 1 0 million new cancers were diagnosed globally in 2000,and that
number is expected to rise to 15 million by 2020.Researchers say most of that increase will
mainly be due to steadily aging populations in both developed and developing countries and
current trends in smoking and other unhealthy habits.
"Cancer has emerged as a major public health problem in developing countries for the
first time, matching its effect in industrialized（工业化的）countries , " said researcher Paul
Kleihues,MD,director of IARC,in a news release."Once considered a'Western'
disease,the Report highlights that more than 50 percent of the world's cancer burden,in
terms of both numbers of cases and deaths,already occurs in developing countries."
The risk of being diagnosed with cancer in developed countries is double that in less-
developed ones.However,the risk of dying from cancer is much higher in developing
countries , where 80% of cancer patients already have late-stage incurable tumors（肿瘤）
at the time of diagnosis.
Researchers say cancer rates have traditionally been higher in developed countries due
to greater exposure to tobacco,occupational carcinogens（致癌物）,and an unhealthy
Western diet and lifestyle.As less-developed countries become industrialized and more
prosperous,they tend to adopt the high-fat diet and low physical activity levels typically seen
in the West,which increase cancer rates.Which of the following statements is NOT correct?
A:There were 1 0 million cancer patients worldwide in 2000.
B:Generally,cancer accounted for 12% of all deaths in 2000.
C:Cancer is the cause of over 25%of all deaths in many countries.
D:It is expected that global cancer rates will go up by 50%by 2020.答案：A解析： -

第21题：
问答题Practice 1 The greenhouse effect causes trouble by raising the temperature of the planet. The 1 rise is not very much，but the Earth’s ecosystem is very weak，and small changes can have large effects. It has been believed that this 2 of one degree will happen by the year 2025. This could probably 3 the North American corn belt, which produces much of the world’s grain， 4 to much higher food prices，and even less food for the Third World than they already have. However，it would also mean that some countries which are further north would be able to 5 crops they had never been able to before，although there is less land as you move north from the corn belt. The other serious worry is that rising sea levels from the melting of the polar ice could 6 flood many countries. A rise in sea levels of one meter，which many expels are 7 by the year 2100 (and some as soon as 2030)，would flood 15 percent of Egypt，and 12 percent of Bangladesh. The Maldives in the Indian Ocean would almost 8 disappear. Most of the countries which would suffer most from a rise in sea levels are the poor 9 states，so the islands in the Caribbean，South Pacific，Meditertgiiean and Indian Ocean have formed the Alliance of Small Island States，AOSIS，so they have a 10 voice in international politics and can make the richer developed world listen to their problems.[A] severely [B] damage [C] island[D] critical [E] grow [F] mainland[G] louder [H] predicting [I] rise[J] completely [K] geometry [L] actual[M] extending [N] 1eading [O] develop正确答案： 1.L 该处应填入形容词。根据后半句句意知道虽然温度变化的幅度很小,但还是会有很大的影响,因此可推知前半句说明的是实际的变化很小,由此可确定给定词中的actual正确,意为“实际的”。
2.I 该处应填入名词。由this的指示作用可知此处所讲的内容上文有所提及,再根据空白处后的degree可推知此处填入的单词与温度有关,因此可确定rise为本题答案。
3.B 该处应填入动词原形。上段说到温度上升会给生态带来不好的影响,故此处填入的单词应带有负面意义,所以可确定给定词中的damage正确。
4.N 该处应填入能与to搭配的动词现在分词形式。这句话讲的是温度上升所带来的不利影响,因此可确定给定词中的leading正确,lead to意为“导致”。
5.E 该处应填入动词原形。由句首的however可推知,温度上升会给一些地区带来不利影响,但也会使别的地区受益,因此可确定给定词中的grow正确,表明一些国家由于温度升高可以种植一些原本不能种植的作物。
6.A 该处应填入副词。根据下文提到的数据可以确定给定词中的severely符合题意。
7.H 该处应填入动词的现在分词形式。根据后文的by the year 2100可推知此处应表示预测未来的情况,故可确定给定词中的predicting一词正确,意为“预测”。
8.J 该处应填入副词。本句讲的是马尔代夫的情况,由almost…disappear可推知所给定词中的completely正确,说明马尔代夫可能会完全消失。
9.C 该处应填入修饰states的形容词或名词。这句话说明贫穷的岛国受到海平面上升的影响最大,再根据后半句出现的islands可确定给定词中中的island为本题答案。
10.G 该处应填入修饰voice的形容词。本句意为岛国形成联盟让发达国家聆听他们的声音,即增强自己的影响力和声音,故可确定给定词中的louder正确。解析： 暂无解析 -

单选题What does “brain drain” refer to?AAn activity that uses the brain to create a lot of wealth.
BApplying for positions in foreign countries.
CThe movement of professional people to a rich nation.
DThe training of skilled individuals in developed countries.
正确答案： B解析：
录音中提到“This brain drain will accelerate as the global economy expands.”(随着全球经济的扩张，这种人才流失将会加快)，This brain drain指的是“人才流失”，结合前文中讲的内容也即是专业人才移向富裕国家，所以选C。
【录音原文】
New information and communication technologies are driving the global economy. They have brought down the cost of global communication, and innovative tools have become easier to use. The Internet, mobile phones and electronic funds transfer are opening up the global marketplace. The Internet had more than 140 million users in the middle of 1998, but 93% of users were in the richest 20% of nations.
Improved communication can foster great advances in health care and education. It also breaks down barriers of size, time, and distance. With the Internet, consumers can purchase products from any country in the world, and any innovative producers can easily reach a much larger market place and take advantage of economies of scale.
Improvements in technology also bring up the issue of intellectual property rights. Tighter property rights are increasing the price of technology transfer, blocking many developing countries from their use, whether it is in production, communication, education or health care, this in turn increases the power and wealth of those who largely own the property fights.
What is more, new information and communication technologies have also promoted the international movement of labor. This movement has been growing since the 1960’s. Now about 2.3% of the world population lives outside their country of birth and 1.5% of the world’s workforce works in countries other than those of its citizenship. This trend is on the increase with the World Wide Web opening the door for skilled individuals to apply for positions in almost any country in the world. In developing countries, students are studying subjects that will give them a passage from their current existence to one of expected wealth in a rich nation. This brain drain will accelerate as the global economy expands.
