Cooking Oil Fumes Cause Tumor

The leading cause of lung cancer among women in the city was cooking oil fumes while men are more
likely to develop the disease from smoking,said medical experts after a five-year research study.
Doctors announced the results yesterday with analysis on some new tendencies on lung cancer. They
said patients are younger,especially women.
According to the Shanghai Tumor Research Institute,more local residents die of lung cancer in the city
than anything else.Following breast cancer,it has the second-highest incidence rate.
"An unhealthy lifestyle is a very important reason for lung cancer,"said Dr. He Yumin from Shanghai
Minshen Traditional Medicine Tumor Diagnosis and Treatment Centre.
He followed 2, 276 lung cancer patients for five years.Among them,1,483 were male.
Smoking causes 70 percent of cases among men while only 18 percent of female patients developed
cancer from smoking or inhaling second-hand smoke,according to the report.
However,more than 60 percent of women with the disease had long term,close contact with strong oil
fumes from cooking and complained about irritated eyes and throat.
About 32 percent women fried foods in boiling oil in unventilated kitchens and about 25 percent of
women's bedrooms were adjacent to the kitchen.
However,local women were surprised to learn cooking oil fumc、 could lead to cancer. Some claimed
they may change food preparation methods.
"Unless my family and I don't eat at home every day,I must stay in the kitchen to cook,"said Xu Li,
a 45-year-old local woman."I know the fumes are bad for the skin,but it is the first time that I heard it
result in lung cancer. I have already started frying less."
Doctors said women's lung cancer had few links to personal health and physical condition, but was closely
related to family cancer history,unhealthy dietary habits and weak immune systems.
Other experts agreed with him.
"Smoking is by far the biggest cause of lung cancer for men,"said Dr. Tan Binyong,honorary president
of the Respiratory Disease Institute at Fudan University's Medical College."It's true that second-hand
smoke and cooking fumes are the main causes among women."
His research also warned people not to stand near of stalls selling fried food due to the poor quality of
the oils used.
The chance of catching lung cancer is three times higher if one is exposed to the fume for a long time,
experts said.
选项 Which of the following diseases is the most common among the local residents in Shanghai?
A:Heart disease.
B:Breast cancer.
C:Infectious disease.
D:Lung cancer.
答案B
解析由文章第二段的第二句“They said patients are younger, especially women.”可知，肺癌 的新趋势就是“病人更年轻，尤其是妇女”。故D项正确。
由文章第三段的内容可知，肺癌排在乳腺癌之后，发病率高居第二，由此可见，乳腺癌 才是最常见的疾病。
由文章第七段的内容可知，60％以上患肺癌的妇女都长期接触厨房油烟，并抱怨眼睛 发炎和喉咙疼痛难受。故A项正确。
由文章第九段的内容可知，当妇女们知道厨房的油烟可以致癌时都感到非常惊讶。故 B项正确。
本题为词义辨析题。首先要注意倒数第五段中的两处文字，即had few links to…和was closely related to...，其中 link to意为connection with，而relate to则意为connect with，都是“联 系”的意思。few和little一样，都是具有否定意义的词，意为“很少，几乎没有”，只是后面的名 词分别为可数名词和不可数名词而已。如果这一点明白了，也就很容易回答这道题了。第二篇 本篇文章主要讲述了古代人用植物草药治疗疾病保待健康。直到今天，植物草药在人类医 疗保健方面仍发挥着很大的作用，但是其供应量却在急速下降。
