问答题A review of cell phone studies commissioned by the Swedish Radiation Protection Authority has found no “consistent evidence” of an increased risk of cancer from usage, the agency said.Studies have differed on whether the use of mobile phones increases the risk of cancer as the handsets have become increasingly popular and efficient.The governmental agency asked Dr. John D. Boice Jr. and Dr. Joseph K. McLaughlin of the International Epidemiology Institute in Rockville, Md., to evaluate published epidemiological research on the subject.The review looked at nine studies since 1996 that included factors such as type of phone, duration and frequency of use and brain tumor location.“No consistent evidence was observed for increased risk of brain cancer (or other forms),” the scientists said in the review, released Wednesday.The agency acknowledged public concern about the issue and said many studies were still being performed and continued follow-up was needed on any possible carcinogenic effect linked to mobile phone usage.

共用题干Mobile PhonesMobile phones should carry a label if they proved to be a dangerous source of radiation,according to Robert Bell,a scientist.And no more mobile phone transmitter towers should be built until the long-term health effects of the electromagnetic radiation they emit are scientifically evaluated,he said."Nobody is going to drop dead overnight but we should be asking for more scientific information,"Robert Bell said at a conference on the health effects of low-level radiation.______(46) A report widely circulated among the public says that up to now scientists do not really know enough to guarantee there are no ill-effects on humans from electromagnetic radiation.According to Robert Bell,there are 3.3 million mobile phones in Australia alone and they are increasing by 2,000 a day.______(47)As well,there are 2,000 transmitter towers around Australia,many in high density residential areas.______(48)The electromagnetic radiation emitted from these towers may have already produced some harmful effects on the health of the residents nearby.Robber Bell suggests that until more research is completed the government should ban construction of phone towers from within a 500 meter radius of school grounds,child care centers,hospitals, sports playing fields and residential areas with a high percentage of children.______(49)He adds that there is also evidence that if cancer sufferers are subjected to electromagnetic waves the growth rate of the disease accelerates.______(50)According to Robert Bell,it is reasonable for the major telephone companies to fund it. Besides,he also urges the government to set up a wide-ranging inquiry into possible health effects.________(49)A:He says there is emerging evidence that children absorb low-level radiation at a rate more than three times that of adults.B:By the year 2000 it is estimated that Australia will have 8 million mobile phones;nearly one for every two people.C:"If mobile phones are found to be dangerous,they should carry a warning label until proper shields can be devised,"he said.D:Then who finances the research?E:For example,Telstra,Optus and Vodaphone build their towers where it is geographically suitable to them and disregard the need of the community.F: The conclusion is that mobile phones bring more harm than benefit.

共用题干Cigars Instead?Smoking one or two cigars a day doubles the risk of cancers of the lip,tongue,mouth,and throat,according to a government study.Daily cigars also increase the risk of lung cancer and cancer of the esophagus,and increase the risk of cancer of the larynx(voice box)sixfold,say researchers at the National Cancer Institu- te in Bethesda,Maryland. In addition,the report revealed that smoking three or four cigars a day increased the risk of oral cancer to 8.5 times the risk for nonsmokers and the risk of esophageal cancer by four times the risk of nonsmokers.The health effects of smoking cigars is one of eight sections of the article"Cigars:HealthEffects and Trends".The researchers report that,compared with a cigarette,a large cigar emits up to 90 times as much carcinogenic tobacco-specific nitrosamines."This article provides clear and invaluable information about the disturbing increase in cigar use and the significant public health consequences for the country,"said Dr. Richard Klausner, director of the National Cancer Institute,in a statement."The data are clear-the harmful substances and carcinogens in cigar smoke,like cigarettes,are associated with the increased risks of several kinds of cancers as well as heart and lung diseases,"he added."In other words,cigars are not safe alternatives to cigarettes and may be addictive.""To those individuals who may be thinking about smoking cigars,our advice is-don't. To those currently smoking cigars,quitting is the only way to eliminate completely the cancer,heart and lung disease risks,"warned Klausner.According to a National Cancer Institute press release,there haven't been any studies on the health effects on nonsmokers at cigar social events,but“... a significant body of evidence clearly demonstrates an increased lung cancer risk from secondhand smoke." According to the report,smoking three or four cigars a day______.A: increases the risk of oral cancer for non-smokersB: greatly increases the risk of oral cancer for smokersC: increases the risk of more than one cancer for non-smokers.D: greatly increases the risk of more than one cancer for smokers

共用题干Can Mobile Phones Cause Disease?1 "Mobile phone killed my man,"screamed one headline last year.Also came claimsthat an unpublished study had found that mobile phones cause memory loss.And a Britishnewspaper devoted its front page to a picture supposedly(假定地)showing how mobilephones heat the brain.2 For anyone who uses a mobile phone,these are worrying times.But speak to the scientists whose work is the focus of these scares and you will hear a different story.According to them, there is no evidence that mobile phones cause cancer or any other illness in people.3 What we do have,however, are some results suggesting that mobile phones' emissions have a variety of strange effects on living tissue that can't be explained by thegeneral radiation biology.And it's only when the questions raised by these experiments are answered that we'll be able to say for sure what mobile phones might be doing to the head.4 One of the odd effects comes from the now famous"memory loss" study.Alan Preeceand his colleagues at the University of Bristol placed a device that imitated the microwave emissions of mobile phones to the left ear of volunteers.The volunteers were just as good at recalling words and pictures they had been shown on a computer screen whether or notthe device was switched on.Preece says he still can't comment on the Effects of using a mobile phone for years on end.But he rules out the suggestion that mobile phones have an immediate effect on our cognitive abilities." I'm pretty sure there is no effect on short-termmemory,"he says.5 Another expert,Tattersall,remarked that his latest findings have removed fears about memory loss.One result, for instance, suggests that nerve cell synapses(突触) exposed to microwaves become more一rather than less一receptive(感受的)to undergoing changes linked to memory formation.6 Hopefully,microwaves might turn out to be good for you.It sounds crazy,but a couple of years ago a team led by William Adey at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in California found that mice exposed to microwaves for two hours a day were less likely to develop brain tumours when given a cancer-causing chemical.Paragraph 2_________A:Bad ResultsB:Widespread OppositionC:Groundless AnxietyD:No Effect on Short-term MemoryE:Mysterious EffectsF:Further Reassurance

问答题A review of cell phone studies commissioned by the Swedish Radiation Protection Authority has found no “consistent evidence” of an increased risk of cancer from usage, the agency said.Studies have differed on whether the use of mobile phones increases the risk of cancer as the handsets have become increasingly popular and efficient.The governmental agency asked Dr. John D. Boice Jr. and Dr. Joseph K. McLaughlin of the International Epidemiology Institute in Rockville, Md., to evaluate published epidemiological research on the subject.The review looked at nine studies since 1996 that included factors such as type of phone, duration and frequency of use and brain tumor location.“No consistent evidence was observed for increased risk of brain cancer (or other forms),” the scientists said in the review, released Wednesday.The agency acknowledged public concern about the issue and said many studies were still being performed and continued follow-up was needed on any possible carcinogenic effect linked to mobile phone usage.
