    A New Strategy to Overcome Breast Cancer
    Post-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 walking
    B:breathing exercise
    C:recreational activity
    D:lifestyle choices

    答案:B
    解析:
    本文主要讲述的内容为每周至少7个小时的散步能够降低女性患乳腺癌的几率。并且通过进行实验证明了这一点,最后还指出生活方式的变化对抑制乳腺癌的发生有重要的影响。

    C:available
    D:persistent

    答案:B
    解析:

    Screen Test

    1 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-rays
    because 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 costly
    B:harmful
    C:save a life
    D:still open to debate
    E:reduce the risk of radiation triggering a cancer
    F:reduced to the minimum

    答案:C
    解析:
    由文章第二段内容可知:用X射线检查年轻女士是有争议的,部分原因是辐射有诱发 癌症的危险。另外,年轻女士乳房组织紧密,给予的X射线的剂量要多一些,这对她们有害。
    第三段的第一句话是这么说的:Valencia理工大学的研究人员分析了11个社区诊所用 X射线检查16万名以上女士的结果。这也是本段的主旨句。
    第四段的主要内容是,两种不同的数学模型在预测用X射线检查女士诱发癌症方面的 结果是不一样的。C项对这段话进行了概括。
    由第五段第一句话“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.”可知, 研究人员认为,与发现后接受治疗的癌症数字相比,由辐射诱发癌症的数字是微不足道的。
    由文章第一段第二句“If this happens early enough, the disease can often be treated successfully.”可知,乳腺癌发现得早也许能挽救生命。
    由文章第二段第一句“But the medical benefits of screening these younger women are controversial...”可知,用x射线检查年轻女士,就医学上的好处而论,是有争议的。
    由文章第六段第一句话可知,延缓用x射线检查的年龄也许能减少辐射诱发癌症的 危险。
    由文章最后一段的末句“That' s why radiation exposure should be minimized in any screening program.”可知,F为正确答案。第4部分:阅读理解第一篇 本篇文章主要讲述了轮班工作对工人身体健康的多种危害,同时建议人们怎样做以降低轮 班工作的危害程度。

    问答题
    治疗Breast cancer开发了哪些药物?

    正确答案: 乳腺癌中呈现较多的HER(人表皮生长因子受体),可以分为4类,其中最主要的是HER2。因此在设计药物时,将HER作为药物靶点。
    1)直接设计针对HER2的单克隆抗体:直接作用于HER2的抗体;
    2)设计阻止HER2二聚体的形成的抗体;
    3)抗体与具有细胞毒作用的药物共同作用,通过抗体将药物运输到作用位点来发挥作用;
    4)双/三特异的抗体:可以把具有细胞毒作用的细胞募集到作用靶点来发挥作用;
    5)通过设计抑制酪氨酸激酶活性的药物来实现治疗;
    6)设计热休克蛋白的抑制剂,来进一步控制HER2及下游信号蛋白的稳定性,从而达到治疗的目的;
    7)设计能识别HER2和VEGR及其他和癌症有关的元件的药物,通过一药多用的手段达到治疗目的;
    8)设计可恢复抑制肿瘤转移的药物来进行治疗。
    赫赛汀(Herceptin)即人类的抗HER2单克隆抗体,它作用于乳腺癌细胞的HER2表面蛋白,干扰癌细胞的生物学进程,最终致其死亡。Dimercept也是一种治疗乳腺癌的药物,可以结合4中HER,阻止其形成2聚体,以达到治疗效果。

    All of the following factors relating to cancer risk were mentioned in the passage EXCEPT______.
    A:regular walking
    B:breathing exercise
    C:recreational activity
    D:lifestyle choices

    答案:B
    解析:
    本篇文章主要探讨了乳腺癌与散步、娱乐以及生活方式的关系。
    根据第一段第一句可知,研究表明walking(散步)可以减少乳腺癌的患病率;根据第一段第四句可知,更多事实表明lifestyle(生活方式)影响患癌风险;结合第三段第一句与第三句可知,walking, swimming, aerobics以及看电视、阅读等都属于recreational activity。这三种与癌症有关的因素文章都有提到,而breathing exercise没有被提到,所以选择B项。
    根据第四段引用Dr.Alpa Patel的话语中的第二句可知,Dr.Alpa Patel发现每天散步一小时就能减少乳腺癌的患病率,所以选择A项。
    根据第四段第一句可知,Dr.Alpa Patel" led the study",也就是说,Dr.Alpa Patel是这项研究的带头人,所以现在D项。
    根据第三段第三句可知,接受调查的人员中有47%的女性表示,散步是她们的唯一娱乐活动。由此可知,散步是约一半的女性唯一的娱乐活动,所以选择C项。
    sustainable的意思是“可持续的,能持续的”,选项中只有B项continuable可以表示相同意思。affordable付得起的;persistent有毅力的,不屈不挠的;available可用的,有空的。另外根据常理也可以推测出生活方式的变化是持续不断的。

    Breast Cancer Deaths Record Low

    The 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 by
    year.,,
    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:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:B
    解析:
    在英国,2007年有11 990名女子死于乳腺癌。根据第二段中“The Cancer Research UK data showed that 11 ,990 women died in the UK in 2007”可知,2007年英国癌症研究中心的数据 显示,2007年美国妇女的死亡人数是11 990。虽然没有专门强调死亡是由乳腺癌所致,不过 根据句子中的“Cancer Research”和第一段的内容推断,此数字就是乳腺癌的死亡人数。因此 该推论是正确的。
    在英国,乳腺癌患者的死亡统计是从1971年开始的。根据文章第三段中“The previous lowest figure had been recorded in 1971一the year records began...”可知,先前的最低点是在1971 年,即开始作统计的那一年。由此得知该推论是正确的。
    在英国乳腺癌诊断的比率一直在下降。根据第四段中“…despite breast cancer being diagnosed more often."(······尽管被诊断为乳腺癌的病例越来越常见)可知,该论断是错误。
    该论断在文章中未提及。
    该论断在文章中未提及。
    该题句意为:2005年英国死于乳腺癌的女性人数少于2004年。根据倒数第四段中"There was。slight rise in 2005"(2005年人数略微上升)可以推断,该论断是错误的。
    最后一段中说obesity(肥胖)and alcohol consumption是诱发乳腺癌的原因,但未提及其 他疾病,因此选C0 put down to的意思是“归因于”。第3部分:概括大意与完成句子

    阅读理解:请根据短文内容,为每题确定l个最佳选项。 A New Strategy to Overcome Breast Cancer。 Post-menopausal(绝经后)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 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 Atlanta, 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 incorporate 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.” It can be inferred from Dr. Alpa Patel’s study that____.
    A

    women have fewer chances of physical activity

    B

    daily walking could cut the chance of breast cancer

    C

    leisure-time activity is not associated with cancer risk

    D

    walking is not recommended for women with breast cancer


    正确答案: B
    解析: 译文:从Dr. Alpa Patel’的研究中可以推论出________?
    这是一道推论题,从题干部分的infer可以看出,相关的动词有:suggest, imply, conclude, indicate等都表示暗示、推导、总结、表明。选项往往表现为句子。
    首先通过题干部分的关键信息,Dr. Alpa Patel’(不可被同义替换掉的人名、职位名称)找到相关的段落(extensive reading)然后通过结合选项当中的关键词(名词、动词、形容词、副词等)进行筛选,由于是推论题,往往没有直接的信息,会有同义替换(paraphrasing)
    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 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.”
    简便的办法是找到本段的重复词语“walking”显然该研究围绕“walking”的问题展开,该段的中心意思是:散步时健康的休闲方式,可以大大降低妇女乳腺癌的可能性。因此B. daily walking could cut the chance of breast cancer最为符合该段的中心意思(paraphrasing: from specific examples to category)
