    U. S. Blacks Hard-hit by Cancer

    Death rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more
    likely to die of cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday.
    In a special report on cancer and blacks,the organization said blacks are usually
    diagnosed with cancer later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.
    This could be because of unequal(不平等的)access to medical care, because blacks
    are more likely to have other diseases as well,and perhaps because of differences in the
    biology(生物学)of the cancer itself, the report added.
    "In general,black Americans have less hope of surviving five years after diagnosis
    than whites for all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said,
    "In describing cancer statistics for black Americans,this report recognizes that many of
    the differences associated with race may be caused by unfair social and economic
    differences and unequal access to medical care."
    The cancer society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups(体格检查)
    earlier,when cancer is more treatable,and it said more research is needed to see if
    biological differences play a role.
    "The new statistics emphasize the continuing importance of wiping out these unfair
    social differences through public policy and education efforts,"the organization said in a
    statement.
    But it also noted a drop in cancer death rates.
    "Cancer death rates in both sexes for all sites combined have dropped greatly among
    black Americans since 1992,as have incidence rates(发生率),"said the report.

    Cancer is more treatable if it is detected
    A:in an early stage.
    B:in a late stage.
    C:all of a sudden.
    D:together with other diseases.

    答案:A
    解析:

  • 第3题:

    Vitamins are similar because they are made of the same elements—usually carbon,hydrogen,oxygen,and sometimes nitrogen.They are different in that their elements are arranged differently,and each vitamin been( )one or more specific functions in the body.

    A.holds
    B.plays
    C.performs

    答案:A
    解析:
    根据句意,所选项要有“起作用”的含义。四个选项中,只有D.perform“执行,履行”与function相搭配,意为“起作用”。A.undertake“着手,承担”;B.hold“抓住,掌握”;C.play常和part或role搭配,也可表达“起作用”之意。

    Communications Revolution Cyberspace,data superhighway,multi-media-for those who have seen the future,the linking of computers, television and telephones will change our lives forever.Yet for all the talk of a forthcoming technological utopia little attention has been given to the implications of these developments for the poor.As with all new high technology,while the West concerns itself.with the"how",the question of"for whom"is put aside once again. Economists are only now realizing the full extent to which the communications revolution has affected the world economy.Information technology allows the extension of trade across geographical and industrial boundaries,and transnational corporations take full advantage of it.Terms of trade,exchange and interest rates and money movements are more important than the production of goods.The electronic economy made possible by information technology allows the haves to increase their control on global markets-with destructive impact on the have-nots. For them the result is instability.Developing countries which rely on the production of a small range of goods for export are made to feel like small parts in the international economic machine.As"futures"are traded on computer screens,developing countries simply have less and less control of their destinies. So what are the options for regaining control?One alternative is for developing countries to buy in the latest computers and telecommunications themselves-so-called"development communications"modernization.Yet this leads to long-term dependency and perhaps permanent constraints on developing countries'economies. Communications technology is generally exported from the U.S.,Europe or Japan;the patents,skills and ability to manufacture remain in the hands of a few industrialized countries.It is also expensive,and imported products and services must therefore be bought on credit-credit usually provided by the very countries whose companies stand to gain. Furthermore,when new technology is introduced there is often too low a level of expertise to exploit it for native development.This means that while local elites,foreign communities and subsidiaries of transnational corporations may benefit,those whose lives depend on access to the information are denied by it.

    Why does the author say that the electronic economy may have a destructive impact on developing countries?
    A:Because it destroys the economic balance of the poor countries.
    B:Because it inhibits the industrial growth of developing countries.
    C:Because it enables the developed countries to control the international market.
    D:Because it violates the national boundaries of the poor countries.

    答案:B
    解析:
    文章第一段说发达国家在网络空间、数字高速公路、多媒体等高科技方面迅猛发展的同时,贫困国家的发展却并不受重视。第二段最后一句话进一步指出,电子经济的发展使得发达国家进一步控制了全球市场,从而给贫困国家造成了毁灭性的影响。第四段接着谈到贫困国家若想控制本国经济的发展,就要引进最新技术,但是这又会导致贫困国家在发展电讯事业方面长期依赖发达国家,使得本国经济受到永久的约束。由此可见,高科技的发展是符合发达国家的利益的。故选B。
    由文章第石段第二句话“…little attention has been given to the implications of these developments for the poor.”可知,贫困国家的发展并没有受到足够的重视。故选A。
    由文章第二段最后一句话和第三段最后一句话可知,电子经济的发展使得发达国家进一步控制了全球市场,而使发展中国家对本匡经济的控制能力相对减弱。这些都将对发展中国家造成毁灭性的影响。除此之外,由文章第四段可知,发展中国家要重新获得对本国经济的控制能力,就需要引进发达国家的先进科技,这又使得发展中国家更加依赖发达国家,从而限制了本国经济的发展。所以说,电子经济的发展之所以会对发展中国家造成毁灭性的影响的直接原因是它限制了发展中国家的经济发展。故选B。
    由文章第四段最后一句话“Yet this leads to long-term dependency and perhaps permanent constraints on developing countries ' economies.”可知,如果发展中国家选择发展现代化通讯技术,那么就会导致他们长期地依赖发达国家,给本国的经济发展带来永久的制约。因此发展中国家现代通讯技术的发展将是以牺牲本国的经济独立为代价的。故选B。
    通读全文可知,作者多次指出高新技术的发展在给发达国家带来巨大利益的同时,却阻碍了发展中国家的经济发展。它给发展中国家带来的将是毁灭性的影响。由此可推测出作者对通讯革命持批判态度。故选D。

    US Blacks Hard-hit by Cancer

    Death rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more likely to die of
    cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday.
    In a special report on cancer and blacks, the organization said blacks are usually diagnosed with cancer
    later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.
    This could be because of unequal access to medical care,because blacks are more likely to have other
    diseases like diabetes as well,and perhaps because of differences in the biology of the cancer itself,the report added.
    "In general,African Americans have]ess likelihood of surviving five years after diagnosis than whites for
    all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said.
    "In describing cancer statistics for African Americans,this report recognizes that socioeconomic dispari-
    ties and unequal access to medical care may underlie many of the differences associated with race."
    The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier,when cancer is more
    treatable,and it said more research was needed to see if biological differences play a role.

    Public policy and education efforts may help to do away with________.
    A:death rates
    B:various cancers
    C:unfair social differences
    D:biological differences

    答案:C
    解析:
    由文章第一段的内容可知,美国黑人的死亡率高于美国的白人。该段只是将美国黑人与美国白人的癌症死亡率进行了比较。故选B。
    前三项原因在文章第三段中都被提到了,而早期诊断是有助于降低癌症死亡率的。
    利用题干中“检测”作为线索,由文章第六段的内容可以得知,癌症越早发现越有利于治疗。
    文章第七段提到,公共政策和教育有助于消除不平等的社会差异。
    利用题干中的时间作线索,由文章的倒数第三段的内容可知,从1992年以来,美国黑人的癌症死亡率下降了。

    Communications Revolution

    Cyberspace,data superhighway,multi-media一for those who have seen the future,the linking of computers
    television and telephones will change our lives forever. Yet for all the talk of a forthcoming technological
    utopia little attention has been given to the implications of these developments for the poor. As with all new
    high technology,while the West concerns itself with the"how",the question of"for whom"is put aside
    once again.
    Economists are only now realizing the full extent to which the communications revolution has affected the
    world economy.Information technology allows the extension of trade across geographical and industrial
    boundaries,and transnational corporations take full advantage of it.Terms of trade,exchange and interest
    rates and money movements are more important than the production of goods.The electronic economy made
    possible by information technology allows the haves to increase their control on global markets一with destruc-
    tive impact on the have-nots.
    For them the result is instahiTity.Dcveioping countries which rely on the production of a small range of
    goods for export are made to feel like small parts in the international economic machine.As"futures"are
    traded on computer screens,developing countries simply have less and less control of their destinies.
    So what are the options for regaining control?One alternative is for developing countries to buy in the
    latest comnputers arid telecommunications themselves一so-called"development communications"moderniza-
    tiori. Yet this leads to long-term dependency and perhaps permanent constraints on developing
    countries' economies.
    Communications technology is generally exported from the U.S.,Europe or Japan;the patents,skills
    and ability to manufacture remain in the hands of a few industrialized countries.It is also expensive,and im-
    ported products and servoces must therefore be bought on credit一credit usually provided by the very coun-
    tries vhose companies stand to gain.
    Furthermore,when new technology is introduced there is often too low a level of expertise to exploit it
    for native development.This means that while local elites,foreign communities and subsidiaries of transna-
    tional corporations may benefit,those whose lives depend on access to the information are denied by it.

    Why does the author say that the electronic economy may have a destructive impact on developing countries?
    A:Because it destroys the economic balance of the poor countries.
    B:Because it inhibits the industrial growth of developing countries.
    C:Because it enables the developed countries to control the international market.
    D:Because it violates the national boundaries of the poor countries.

    答案:B
    解析:
    文章第一段谈到,西方发达国家在网络空间、数字高速公路、多媒体等高技术方面迅猛发展的同时,他们对贫困国家的发展却并不重视二文章第二段第一句话进一步指出,电子经济使得发达国家进一步控制全球市场,从而给贫困国家造成了毁灭性的影响。第三段和第四段接着谈到贫困国家在发展电讯事业方面对发达国家的长期依赖使得本国经济受到长期的约束。由此可推断,选项B符合题意。
    根据第一段第二句话,“……对于贫穷国家的发展,他们没有给予关注……”,由此可见,选项A与题意相符。
    根据第二段的最后一句话和第三段以及第四段,我们可以看到,毁灭性影响表现之一是经济上的不稳定,之二是发展中国家无法掌握自己的命运,发达国家对高科技的垄断抑制了发展中国家的经济。所以选项B与题意相符。
    根据第四段的第二句和第三句话,可以看到,如果发展中国家选择发展通讯现代化的话,就会导致他们长期地依赖发达国家,并给自己国家的经济发展带来永远的制约。由此可见,选项B与题意相符。
    本题问及作者对通讯革命所持的态度。作者在文章中多处指明,高新技术在给发达国家带来巨大利益的同时,却未能使贫穷国家摆脱贫困地位。相反的,它给贫穷国家带来的是毁灭性的影响。由此我们可以推断出作者对此事持批评态度。因此本题正确答案为。

    "In describing cancer statistics for Mrican Americans,this report recognizes that socioeconomic disparities and unequal access to medical care may underlie many of the differences associated with race." The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier,when cancer is more treatable,and it said more research was needed to see if biological differences play a role.
    "The new statistics emphasize the continuing importance of eliminating these social disparities through public policy and education efforts,"the organization said in a statement. But it also noted a drop in cancer death rates.
    "Cancer death rates in both sexes for all sites combined have declined substantially among African Amnericans since 1992,as have incidence rates,"said the report. "Increased efforts to improve economic conditions in combination with education about the relationship of lifestyle choices to cancer could further reduce the burden of cancer among African Americans."
    About 36 million Americans describe themselves as black,representing about 12 percent of the population.

    Black Americans are more likely to die of cancer than______.
    A:people in other countries
    B:white Americans
    C:all other Americans
    D:their ancestors

    答案:B
    解析:
    由文章第一段中“…but black Americans are still more likely to die of cancer than whites…”可知,美国黑人的癌症死亡率高于美国白人。故选B。
    A、B、C三项在文章第三段中都被提及,用以说明美国黑人比白人有着更高的癌症死亡率的原因,而D项(早期诊断)是有助于降低癌症死亡率的。故选D。
    由文章第六段中“The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier , when cancer is more treatable…”可知,黑人被鼓励更早去做检查,因为癌症越早发现越有利于治疗。故选A。
    文章第七段中提到,公共政策和教育有助于消除不平等的社会差异。故选C。
    由文章倒数第三段的内容可知,自1992年以来,美国黑人的癌症死亡率下降了。故选D。

    Us Blacks Hard-hit by Cancer
    Death rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more likely to die of cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday. In a special report on cancer and blacks,the organization said blacks are usually diagnosed with cancer later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.
    This could be because of unequal access to medical care,because blacks are more likely to have other diseases like diabetes as well,and perhaps because of differences in the biology of the cancer itself,the report added. "In general,African Americans have less likelihood of surviving five years after diagnosis than whites for all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said.

    C: have increased
    D: have declined

    答案:D
    解析:
    由文章第一段的内容可知,美国黑人的死亡率高于美国白人。该段只是将美国黑人与美国白人的癌症死亡率进行了比较。故选B。


    前三项原因在文章第三段中都被提到了,而早期诊断是有助于降低癌症死亡率的。


    由文章第六段的内容可以得知,癌症越早发现越有利于治疗。


    文章第七段提到,公共政策和教育有助于消除不平等的社会差异。


    由文章的倒数第三段的内容可知,从1992年以来,美国黑人的癌症死亡率下降了。
