Not the disease itself there is no such thing as a high incidence rates of cancer. Except for lung cancer, mostly caused by cigarette smoking, the incidence rates are not on the rise. However, some kinds of cancer are decreasing. But the fear of cancer is catching, and the country stands at risk of an anxiety. The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物). The ordinary, more or less, scientific statement that something between 80 and 90 percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.” This is not at all the meaning.The 80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world for example, the high incidence of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East, stomach cancer in Japan, breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer in America. These data show there may be specific environmental influences, but largely based on personal life-style, which determines the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities that is all the data suggest. The overall incidence of cancer, counting up all the cases, is probable roughly the same everywhere.5.

Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. Cancer and Environment B. The Fear Caused by CancersC. Data on Cancer Incidence D. Cancer and its InvestigationCHigh-quality customer service is preached(宣扬)by many, but actually keeping customers happy is easier said than done.Shoppers seldom complain to the manager or owner of a retail store, but instead will warn their friends, relatives, co-workers, strangers and anyone who will listen. Store managers are often the last to hear complaints. “Storytelling hurts retailers and entertains consumers,” said Paula Courtney, President of the Verde group. “The store loses the customer, but the shopper must also find a replacement.”The most common complaints include filled parking lots, cluttered(塞满了的)shelves, overloaded racks, out-of-stock items, long check-out lines, and rude sales people.During peak shopping hours, some retailers solved the parking problems by getting moonlighting local police to work as parking attendants to direct customers to empty parking spaces. Retailers can relieve the headaches by redesigning store display, pre-stocking sales items, hiring speedy and experienced cashiers, and having sales representatives on hand to answer questions. Most importantly, sales people should be skillful and polite with angry customers.“Retailers whore enthusiastic and friendly are more likely to smooth over issues than those who arent so friendly.” said Professor Stephen Hoch. “Maybe something as a greeter at the store entrance would help.”Customers can also improve future shopping experiences by filing complaints to the retailer, instead of complaining to the rest of the world. Retailers are hard-pressed to improve when they have no idea what is wrong.9. Why are store managers often the last to hear complaints?A. Most shoppers wont complain even if they have had unhappy experiences. B. Shoppers would rather tell their unhappy experiences to people around them. C. Few customers believe the service will be improved after their complaints. D. It is difficult for customers to have easy access to store managers.10. What does Paula Courtney imply by saying the underlined sentence in paragraph 2? A. New customers are sure to replace old ones. B. It is not likely the shopper can find the same products in other stores. C. The same products can be bought in other retail stores. D. Not complaining to the manager causes the shopper some trouble too.11. What contributes most to smoothing over issues with customers? A. Manners of the salespeople. B. Hiring of efficient employees. C. Huge supply of goods for sale. D. Design of the store display.12. To achieve better shopping experiences, customers are advised to _. A. put pressure on stores to improve their service B. settle their disagreements with stores in a friendly way C. voice their dissatisfaction to store managers directly D. shop around and make comparisons between storesDYou hear the comment all the time: the U.S. economy looks good by figures, but it doesnt feel good. Why doesnt ever-greater wealth promote ever-greater happiness? It is a question that dates at least to the appearance in 1958 of The Wealthy Society by John Kenneth Galbraith, who died recently at 97.The Wealthy Society is a modern classic because it helped describe a new moment in the human condition. For most of history, “hunger, sickness, and cold” threatened nearly everyone, Galbraith wrote. “Poverty was found everywhere in that world. Obviously it is not of ours.” After World War II, the fear of another Great Depression gave way to an economic growth. In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.To Galbraith, materials had gone mad and would cause discontent. Through advertising, companies conditioned consumers to buy things they didnt really want or need. Because so much spending was artificial, it would be unsatisfying. Meanwhile, government spending that would make everyone better off was being cut down because people wrongly considered government only as “a necessary bad.”Its often said that only the rich are getting ahead; everyone else is standing still or falling behind. Well, there are many undeserving rich overpaid chief managers, for instance. But over any meaningful period, most peoples incomes are increasing. From 1995 to 2004, people feel “squeezed” because their rising incomes often dont satisfy their rising wants for bigger homes, more health care, more education, and faster Internet connections.The other great disappointment is that it has not got rid of insecurity. People regard job stability as part of their standard of living. As company unemployment increased, that part has gradually become weaker. More workers fear theyve become “the disposable American,” as Louis Uchitelle puts it in his book by the same name.Because so much previous suffering and social conflict resulted from poverty, the arrival of widespread wealth suggested utopian (乌托邦式的) possibilities. Up to a point, wealth succeeds. There is much less physical suffering than before. People are better off. Unfortunately, wealth also creates new complaints.Advanced societies need economic growth to satisfy the multiplying wants of their citizens. But the search for growth cause new anxieties and economic conflicts that disturb the social order. Wealth sets free the individual, promising that everyone can choose a unique way to self-accomplishment. But the promise is so unreasonable that it leads to many disappointments and sometimes inspires choices that have anti-social consequences, including family breakdown. Figures indicate that happiness has not risen with incomes.Should we be surprised? Not really. Weve simply confirmed an old truth: the seeking of wealth does not always end with happiness.13. The Wealthy Society is a book _. A. about poverty in the pastB. written by Louis UchitelleC. indicating that people are becoming worse offD. about why happiness does not rise with wealth14. According to Galbraith, people feel discontented because _. A. materialism has run wild in modern societyB. they are in fear of another Great DepressionC. public spending hasnt been cut down as expectedD. the government has proved to be necessary but ugly15. What does Louis Uchitelle mean by “the disposable American” ? A. People with a stable job.B. Workers who no longer have secure jobs.C. Those who see job stability as part of their living standard.D. People who have a sense of security because of their rising incomes.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余项。House SittingIn many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.In Australia, many people travel.
