Lung cancer causes more deaths than any other types of cancer. A major c
25、ause of the disease is not【C1】_known; there is no good evidence that screening is much help; and treatment fails in about 90 percent of all cases. At present, therefore, the main strategy must be【C2】_. This may not always be true, of course, as for some other types of cancer, researches over the pas
26、t few decades have produced(or suggested)some importance in prevention, screening or treatment.【C3 】_. however, we consider not what researchers may one day offer but what todays knowledge could already deliver that is not being delivered, then the most practical and cost-efficient opportunities for
27、 avoiding premature death from cancer, especially lung cancer, probably involve neither screening nor improved【C4】_. but prevention. This conclusion does not depend on the unrealistic assumption that we can eliminate tobacco. It merely assumes that we can reduce cigarette sales appreciably by raisin
28、g prices or by【 C5】_on the type of education that already appears to have a positive effect on cigarette assumption by white-collar workers and that we can substantially reduce the amount of tar【C6 】_per cigarette. The practicability of preventing cancer by such measures applies not only in those co
29、untries, such as, the United States of America, because cigarette smoking has been common for decades, 25 to 30 percent of all cancer deaths now involves lung cancer, but also in those where it has become【C7】_only recently. In China, lung cancer as yet accounts for only 5 to 10 percent of all cancer
30、 deaths. This is because it may take as much as half a century for the rise in smoking to increase in the incidence to lung cancer. Countries where cigarette smoking is only now becoming widespread can expect enormous increase in lung cancer during the 1990s or early in the next century,【C8】_prompt
31、effective action is taken against the habit indeed, such increase are already plainly evident in parts of the world.There are reasons why the preventions of lung cancer is of such overwhelming importance. First, the disease is extremely common, causing more deaths than any other types of cancer now【
32、C9】_; secondly, it is generally incurable; thirdly, effective, practicable measures to reduce its incidence are already reliably known; and finally, reducing tobacco consumption will also have a substantial【C10】_on many other diseases.51 【C1 】（A）hardly（B） never（C） less（D）reliably52 【C2 】（A）treatment

The Silicon Valley Employers Forum, a sophisticated group of technology compani
35、es, is launching a pilot program to test online “virtual visits“ between doctors at three big local medical groups and about 8,000 employees and their families. The six employers taking part in the Silicon Valley initiative, including heavy hitters such as Oracle and Cisco Systems, hope that online
36、visits will mean employees wont have to skip work to tend to minor ailment or to follow up on chronic conditions. “With our long commutes and traffic, driving 40 miles to your doctor in your hometown can be a big chunk of time,“ says Cindy Conway, benefits director at Cadence Design Systems, one of
37、the participating companies.Doctors arent clamoring to chat with patients online for free; they spend enough unpaid time on the phone. Only 1 in 5 has ever E-mailed a patient, and just 9 percent are interested in doing so, according to the research firm Cyber Dialogue. “We are not stupid,“ says Stir
38、ling Somers, executive director of the Silicon Valley Employers group. “Doctors getting paid is a critical piece in getting this to work.“ In the pilot program, physicians will get $ 20 per online consultation, about what they get for a simple office visit.Doctors also fear theyll be swamped by ramb
39、ling E-mails that tell everything but whats needed to make a diagnosis. So the new program will use technology supplied by Healinx, an Alameda, Calif. -based start-up. Healinxs “Smart Symptom Wizard“ questions patients and turns answers into a succinct message. The company has online dialogues for 6
40、0 common conditions. The doctor can then diagnose the problem and outline a treatment plan, which could include E-mailing a prescription or a face to face visit.Can E-mail replace the doctors office? Many conditions, such as persistent cough, require a stethoscope to discover whats wrong and to avoi
41、d a malpractice suit. Even Larry Bonham, head of one of the doctors groups in the pilot, believes the virtual doctors visits offer a “very narrow“ sliver of service between phone calls to an advice nurse and a visit to the clinic.The pilot program, set to end in nine months, also hopes to determine
42、whether online visits will boost worker productivity enough to offset the cost of the service. So far, the Internets record in the health field has been underwhelming. The experiment is “a huge roll of the dice for Healinx,“ notes Michael Barrett, and analyst at Internet consulting from Forester Res
43、earch. If the “Web visits“ succeed, expect some HMOs(Health Maintenance Organizations)to pay for online visits. If doctors, employers, and patients arent satisfied, figure on one more E-health start-up to stand down.61 The Silicon Valley employers promote the E-health program for the purpose of_.（A）
44、rewarding their employees（B） gratifying the local hospitals（C） boosting worker productivity（D）testing a sophisticated technology62 What can be learned about the on-line doctors visits?（A）They are a quite promising business.（B） They are funded by the local government.（C） They are welcomed by all the
45、patients.（D）They are very much under experimentation.63 Of the following people, who are not involved in the program?（A）Cisco System employees.（B） Advice nurses in the clinic.（C） Doctors at three local hospitals.（D）Oracle executives.64 According to Para. 2, doctors are_.（A）reluctant to serve online
46、for nothing（B） not interested in web consultation（C） too tired to talk to the patients online（D）content with $20 paid per Web visit65 “Smart Symptom Wizard“ is capable of_.（A）making diagnoses（B） producing prescriptions（C） profiling patients illness（D）offering a treatment plan65 It is common to think
47、 that other animals are ruled by instinct whereas humans lost their instincts and ruled by reason, and that this is why we are so much more flexibly intelligent than other animals. William James, in his book Principles of Psychology, took the opposite view. He argued that human behavior is more flex
48、ibly intelligent than that of other animals because we have more instincts than they do, not fewer. We tend to be blind to the existence of these instincts, however, precisely because they work so well because they process information so effortlessly and automatically. They structure our thought so
49、powerfully, he argued, that it can be difficult to imagine how things could be otherwise. As a result, we take normal behavior for granted. We do not realize that normal behavior needs to be explained at all. This instinct blindness makes the study of psychology difficult. To get past this problem, James suggested that we try to make the natural seem strange. It takes a mind debauched by learning to carry the process of making the natural
