WASHINGTON(Reuters)-People who drink two or more sweetened soft drinks a week have a much higher risk of pancreatic cancer(胰腺癌),an unusual but deadly cancer,researchers reported on Monday.
People who drank mostly fruit juice instead of sodas did not have the same risk,the study
of 60,000 people in Singapore found.
Sugar may be to blame but people who drink sweetened sodas regularly often have other
poor health habits,said Mark Pereira of the University of Minnesota,who led the study.
“The high levels of sugar in soft drinks may be increasing the level of insulin(胰岛素)in The body,which we think contributes to pancreatic cancer cell growth,”Pereira said in a statement.
Writing in the joumal Cancer Epidemiology,Biomarkers & Prevention,Pereira and colleagues
said they followed 60,524 men and women in the Singapore Chinese Health Study for l4 years.
Over that time,140 of the volunteers developed pancreatic cancer.Those who drank two or
more sweetened soft drinks a week had an 87 percent higher risk of being among those who got
pancreatic cancer.
Pereira said he believed the fndings would apply elsewhere。
“Singapore is a wcahhy country with excellent heahhcare.Favorite pastimes(消遣)are
eating and shopping,so the findings should apply to other western countries,”he said.
But Susan Mayne of the Yale Cancer Center at Yale University in Connecticut was cautious.
“Although this study found a risk,the finding was based on a relatively small number of
cases and it remains unclear whether it is a causal(因果的)connection or not。”said Mayne.
who serves on the board of the journal,which is published by the American Association for
Cancer Research.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer,with 230,000 cases globally.In
the United States,37,680 people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in a year and 34,290 die
of it.
4 1.According to the text,who is in control of the health study?
A.Mark Pereira.               B.Scientists from Singapore.
C.Researchers in Yale.         D.Susan Mayne.
42.We can infer from Pereira,s words that__.
A.the heahhcare in Singapore should be greatly improved
B.2 soft drinks a day are considered harmful to health
C.87 out of l40 volunteers developed pancreatic cancer
D.sugar might not be the only cause of pancreatic cancer
43.How does Susan seem to feel about the findings of the study?
A.Satisfied.     B.Doubtful.     C.Worried.   D.Hopeful.
44.The best title of the text might be________.
A.The Deadliest Forms of Cancer          B.Drink Fruit Juice Instead of Sodas
C.A Study in University of Minnesota      D.Sugary Soft Drinks Lead to Cancer

B
What weighs 3500 pounds(1600kg)and lived 60 million years ago?Are you thinking of
dinosaurs?Guess again!You don,t have to go to a museum to see these creatures.They are alive
and swimming in the warm coastal waters of Florida.
Manatees(海牛)have lived a peaceful existence in the warm waters  of  Florida  for  60
million years.However,they are now an endangered species.This means that if humans don,t do
something to save them,they will soon go the way of dinosaurs.
Humans have made life very difficult for manatees.One big danger that humans have
introduced is the speedboat.Because manatees are mammals.they need to come to the surface to breathe about every 5 to 6 minutes.This means that they are in constant danger of being caught in the propellers(螺旋桨)of speedboats.And boating aceidents are the greatest cause of death for them.
Manatees are in extra danger when they are in their sleeping or“torpor”state.They still
have to come to the surface for the air,but sometimes they are too sleepy to avoid the danger of approaching boats.
Another danger for manatees is the pollution that humans produce.Due to human pollution,
a deadly plant called red tide had increased greatly in the Gulf of Mexico.The plant,or algae,
t11riVes(繁茂)on pollution.It wiped out nearly 20 percent of the total manatee population on
earth.
Humans can help to save manatees。The government has established boating speed limits to
give the manatees.a chance to escape approaching speedlsoats.Everyone can help by cutting
down on waste and pollution to protect the waters for the manatees.
One famous singer,Jimmy Buffet,has helped save the manatees.He co-founded the Save the Manatee Club(SMC).SMC had begun an adoption(收养)program for the manatees.For a fee,sponsors(资助者)can name a manatee.Donations are used to help protect the manatees and their habitat.
45.The manatee is the kind of animal that___________.
A.1ikes living in the cold waters of Florida      B.will die out if not protected in time
C.call dive in the deep sea for hours             D.is the biggest living animal on earth
46.Why is it dangerous for manatees to be in a torpor state?
A.Because they come to the snlface to breathe,and that is when they are hunted.
B.Because they eat deadly algae,and this makes them too sick to avoid danger.
C.Because they live in groups and therefore they are easily hurt by passing boats.
D.Because they are sleepy when they surface,so they can,t avoid approaching boats.
47.The death of the manatees is largely due to__________.
A.human hunting                       B.human pollution
C.speedboat accidents                  D.deadly plants
48.To help protect manatees,people should_________.
A.never go speed boating in their living habitat
B.keep the waters of Florida free from pollution
C.have manatess named by sponsors without a fee
D.wake manatees up from their torpor state

C
With smart phones taking the world by Storm,a phone that Can only send and receive voice
calls and text messages may seem like a relic from a bygone age.Yet in East Africa,simple
phones like these are changing the face of the economy,thanks to the mobile money services that are spreading across the region.
Usilng the text-messaging function built into the GSM system(全球通)used by most cell
phone networks,these services allow people without a bank account or credit card to use their
phone as an electronic walletthat can be used to store.send or receive cash.
It works like this:you pay cash to your local agent who then tops up your mobile money
account using a secure form of text messaging.That money can be transferred(转账)to another
person by sending a message to their cell phone account.
For some the system is a lifeline.“If I didn,t have my mobile phone.1 would be very
poor,”says Neyasse Neemur,a mother of four children who lives in northern Kenya.“Now I
can sell fish.”
Neemur took up fishing in July last year,but making money from it was a little tricky,
especially as Turkana people do not usually eat fish.A truck from Ethiopia to Tanzania passes
through her village once a week,and she arranged to have the driver transport the fish several
hundred kilometres south to market in Kisumu.where relatives sell the fish.
“I get the money transfer immediately.”says Neemur.“Then I can pay for my children to go to school and for vegetables and beans,”she adds,“so I don’t need to eat fish.”
According to the Central Bank of Kenya,payments worth around l billion Kenyan shillings
($13 million)per day were transferred through Kenya,s mobile money systems in 2009,equalling
the country,s credit card transactions(业务).The bank expects mobile money transfers to overtake credit cards in 2010.
49.In Paragraph l,the author uses“simple phones”to________.
A.make a comparison    B.introduce a topic
C.describe a scene     D.offer an argument
50.What can we learn about the simple phones in East Africa?
A.They might help the local people apply for a bank account.
B.They will replace the banks completely in the near future.
C.They provide a safe means for the locals to do business.
D.They can do nothing except send and receive calls or messages.
51.The word“it”in the third paragraph refers to_______.
A.the GSM system    B.the mobile money service
C.the credit card service D.the cell phone networks
52.The story of Neyasse Neemur suggests that_______.
A.the mobile money service plays a key rote in the locals, life
B.Neemur uses her mobile phone to contact her customers
C。her relatives tricks Turkana people to eat the fish they sell
D.the Bank of Kenya helps her improve her living condition

D
We all accept that sports should stress skill over luck,and fairness over privilege(特权).
They should be accessible to many and fun to watch.In the end,a sport,s champion should re-
present shared values and served as a role model.
But with today,s advances in technology,the power of sports equipment makers offers great
opportunity for the athletes who have access to the latest technology.
In 2008,108 world records were broken in the sport of swimming.The average number of
world records set in swimming in all past Olympic years is about 22.The average number of
world records set in a non-Olympic year is about 5.Now there are no“old”world records.
Suit technology has been the most widely recognized difference.The sharkskin suit and the
“paper”suits were all made public by suit manufactures before the Olympic.
As records continue to be broken,the Internet message boards for the swimming community
have taken a darker view of suit technology.“Time is meaningless”is one quote.I tend to agree.Some of the times I see being posted today are simply legends(传奇).
Am I against suit technology?Not really.But 2008 marked an unbelievable change in the
sport of swimming.People are saying,“Bigger,faster,stronger at any cost!”,wanting no limits on technology,either suits or drugs.I am not one of those people.
I am a guy that recognized the sport of swimming being as simple as man vs.water.It used
to be the swimmer in the suit,not the suit on the swimmer.How times have changed.
53.According to the first paragraph,it is a common belief that________.
A.only a few people have chances to take part in sports
B.the latest suit technology should not be used in sports
C.sports should be interesting for people to watch
D.luck plays an important role in Olympic Games
54.It can be learned from the passage that_______.
A.the author is against the latest technology in sports
B.the athletes have become more skilled than before
C.some records are hard to break without technology
D.advanced suits and drugs can be used in Olympics
55.What does“Time is meaningless”mean in the swimming community?
A.Breaking records in swimming is too easy for most athelets.
B.It,s technology rather than skill that counts in some records.
C.Many athletes break records by luck and taking drugs.
D.Some rules aren,t obeyed when Olympic records are broken.
56.What,s the author,s opinion of the present sports?
A.Latest technology should be encouraged in compitition among athelets.
B.Time should be measured in a different way in modern Olympic Games.
C.All of the athletes should wear the same suits to ensure fairness.
D. Competition in skill should come first instead of that in equipment。
