U. S. States Do Poorly in Women's Health

Not a single U. S. state meets basic federal goals for women's health,and the nation
as a whole fails except in two areas一mammograms（乳腺X光照片）and dental（牙齿的）
check-ups一researchers said on Thursday.
Millions of women lack health insurance,and states make it difficult to enroll（加入）in
Medicaid,the state-federal health insurance plan for the poor,according to the report.
And few states are doing anywhere near enough to help women quit smoking一the
leading cause of death in the United States.
"The nation as a whole and the individual states fall short of meeting national goals,"
reads the report,put together by the National Women's Law Center and the Oregon
Health&Science University."These health goals provide a road map for assessing the
status of women's health."
Of 27 measures examined by the group,from screening for diseases to actually treating
them,the nation passes on only two,the researchers said."The nation is so far from the
health goals that it receives an overall grade of'unsatisfactory',"they wrote.
The problem seems to be a lack among states of an overall plan for health in general,
the NWLC said.
" State policy makers' piecemeal（一件一件做的）approach to our health care crisis has
resulted in a complex and ineffective system that fails to meet the health care needs of
women,"Judy Waxman,NWLC Vice President for Health,said in a statement.
"Lawmakers need to take a comprehensive,long-term approach to meeting women's
health needs and tackle this serious problem that troubles so many families."

The national goals for women's health make it easier to
A:meet women's health needs.
B:assess the status of women's health.
C:solve women's health problems.
D:deal with the health care crisis.

Text3 Genetically engineered crops are safe for humans and animals to eat and have not caused increases in cancer,obesity,gastrointestinal illnesses,kidney disease,autism or allergies,an exhaustive report from the National Academies of Science released Tuesday found.Overall,genetically engineered（GE）crops saved farmers in the United States money but didn't appear to increase crop yields.They have lowered pest populations in some areas,especially in the Midwest but increased the number of herbicide-resistant weeds in others.There's also no evidence that GE crops have affected the population of monarch butterflies,the report said.To gauge whether foods made from genetically modified crops were safe for human consumption,the committee compared disease reports from the United States and Canada,where such crops have been consumed since the mid-1990s,and those in the United Kingdom and westem Europe,where they are not widely eaten.No long-term pattem ofincrease in specific health problems after the introduction of GE foods in the 1990s in the United States and Canada was found.There was no correlation between obesity or Type n diabetes and the consumption of GE foods.Celiac disease,which makes humans intolerant of gluten,increased in both populations.Patterns in the increase in autism spectrum disorder in children were similar in both the United Kingdom and the United States,the committee reported.Overall the report concluded that there were no differences in terms ofa higher risk to human health between foods made from GE crops and those made from conventionally-bred crops.Food&Water Watch,a government accountability group in Washington D.C.,said the committee's ties to the biotech industry and other corporations create conflicts ofinterest and raise questions about the independence ofits work."Critics have long been marginalized,"said Wenonah Hauter,the group's executive director.A significant portion of American consumers are concerned about the safety or other effects of foods made with genetically modified crops,often called GMOs for genetically modified orgarusms.A survey released last year by the NPD Group,a market research firm,found that 57%ofAmericans were concemed that genetically modified foods posed a health hazard.The food industry has taken notice.In 2015,Progressive Grocer,a trade publication,reported that total U.S.sales of food and beverage products labeled"non-GMO"reached$10 billion during 2014.The National Academies report will likely not sway these consumers,said Phil Lempert,a Los Angeles-based food industry analyst."It's an emotional issue,it's not a science issue,"he said.31.What the report from the National Academies of Science finds is got by

A.comparing the disease reports from consumers and non-consumers of GE foods.
B.estimating the correlation between obesity and the consumption ofGE foods.
C.differentiating GE crops from conventionally-bred crops.
D.doing a market research ofhealth hazards.
