20、 shoulders. The massage is smooth and flowing, as it is designed to create a sense of relaxation and calm.

The American Cancer Society team said this was the first time reduced risk w

29、as specifically linked to walking. UK experts said it was more evidence that lifestyle influenced cancer risk. A recent poll for the charity Ramblers found a quarter of adults walk for no more than an hour a week, but being active is known to reduce the risk of a number of cancers. This study, publi

30、shed in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers “Given that more than 60% of women report some daily walking, promoting walking as a healthy leisure-time activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity amongst postmenopausal women. We were pleased to find that without any other recr

31、eational activity, just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower risk of breast cancer in these women. “More strenuous(紧张的 )and longer activities lowered the risk even more. “ Baroness Delyth Morgan, chief executive of Breast Cancer Campaign, said: “ This study adds further evidence that o

32、ur lifestyle choices can play a part in influencing the risk of breast cancer and even small changes incorporated into our normal day-to-day activity can make a difference. She added:“ We know that the best weapon to overcoming breast cancer is the ability to stop it occurring in the first place. Th

33、e challenge now is how we turn these findings into action and identify other sustainable lifestyle changes that will help us prevent breast cancer. “ 31 All of the following factors relating to cancer risk were mentioned in the passage EXCEPT_. （ A） regular walking （ B） breathing exercise （ C） recre

In order to generate that energy, fossil fuels(co

38、al oil, and gas)are burnt, and these produce greenhouse gases in particular carbon dioxide(CO2). Car emissions are a major problem, but the truth is that more CO2 comes from the energy used at home. The average household creates around five and a half tonnes of CO2 a year, and it is the same CO2 tha

39、t is changing the climate and damaging the environment. CO2 and various other gases wrap the earth in an invisible blanket helping to prevent heat from escaping. Without this greenhouse effect, the average temperature on Earth would be around -18 , compared with the current average of around + 15C.

40、The composition of this blanket of gases has remained relatively constant for many thousands of years. However, since the industrial revolution began around 200 years ago, people have been burning increasing amounts of fossil fuels, thus releasing more CO2 and other greenhouse gases in the process.

41、This has increased the heating effect of the blanket, trapping more of the sun s energy inside the Earth s atmosphere in turn the Earth s temperature has increased more rapidly in a shorter period of time than it has for thousands of years. In 2008, the total UK CO2 emissions were 533 million tonnes

42、. 27%(144 million tonnes)of those emissions came from the energy used to heat, light, and power homes. Transport emissions caused by passenger cars, buses and motorcycles accounted for a further 16%(87 million tonnes)of the UK s CO2 emissions. These figures show that a significant amount of CO2 resu

43、lts from ordinary citizens carbon footprint in their daily activities and lifestyle. The effects of climate change can be seen all around us. Weather patterns are becoming more and more fractured and uncertain, and over the last century trends in warm weather have become increasingly common. In the

44、UK in the last 40 years, winters have grown warmer, with much heavier rainfall. One of the clearest shifts over the last 200 years is towards summers that are hotter and drier, causing pervasive(普遍的 )water shortages. Recent years have been the hottest since records began and during August 2003, the

45、hottest ever outdoor temperature in the UK was recorded 38. 5 . 36 What is the author s main aim? （ A） To explain the greenhouse effect. （ B） To describe the effects of climate change in the UK. （ C） To show how much CO2 is produced by ordinary people s activities. （ D） To illustrate how industrial

46、activity creates the greenhouse effect. 37 What is the author s opinion about the level of CO2 emissions in the UK? （ A） The majority of CO2 emissions come from motorized transport. （ B） CO2 emissions may cause climate change in the future. （ C） More CO2 emissions come from homes than from cars. （ D

47、） The average citizen does not create much CO2. 38 CO2 emissions from vehicles_. （ A） are a more serious problem than energy shortage （ B） do not cause any problems （ C） are high because the average household owns a car （ D） contribute considerably to greenhouse gases 39 The results of climate chang

48、e in the UK can be seen in （ A） cooler summers （ B） water supply （ C） warmer winters （ D） stronger winds 40 Which of the following is the best title for the passage? （ A） Ways of reducing the UK s CO2 emissions. （ B） UK citizen s carbon footprint. （ C） The effect of industry on climate change in the

49、 UK. （ D） Changes in weather patterns in the UK. 40 First Self-contained Heart Implanted A patient on the brink(边缘 )of death has received the world s first self-contained artificial heart a battery-powered device about the size of a softball that runs without the need for wires, tubes sticking out of the chest.
