An examination of businesses that have sustained success over long periods reveal boards that have governed the【M2】_affairs of the business effectively. Likewise, with businesses t

18、cancer screening, is now saying that the benefits of detecting many cancers, especially breast and prostate, have been overstated. It is quietly working on a message, to put on its Web site early next year, to emphasize that screening for breast and prostate cancers and certain other cancers can com

19、e with a real risk of over treating many small cancers while missing cancers that are deadly. The cancer society“s decision to reconsider its message about the risks as well as potential benefits of screening was spurred in part by an analysis published Wednesday in The Journal of the American Medic

20、al Association, Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the cancer society, said. In it, researchers report a 40 percent increase in breast cancer diagnoses and a near doubling of early stage cancers, but just a 10 percent decline in cancers that have spread beyond the breast to the lymph nodes o

21、r elsewhere in the body. With prostate cancer, the situation is similar, the researchers report. If breast and prostate cancer screening really fulfilled their promise, the researchers note, cancers that once were found late, when they were often incurable, would now be found early, when they could

22、be cured. A large increase in early cancers would be balanced by a corresponding decline in late-stage cancers. That is what happened with screening for colon and cervical cancers. But not with breast and prostate cancers. Still, the researchers and others say, they do not think all screening willor

23、 shouldgo away. Instead, they say that when people make a decision about being screened, they should understand what is known about the risks and benefits. For now, those risks are not emphasized in the cancer society“s mammogram message which states that a mammogram is“ one of the best things a wom

24、an can do to protect her health. “ The new analysis finds that prostate cancer screening and breast cancer screening are not so different. Both have a problem that runs counter to everything people have been told about cancer; They are finding cancers that do not need to be found because they would

25、never spread and kill or even be noticed if left alone. That has led to a huge increase in cancer diagnoses because, without screening, those innocuous cancers would go undetected. At the same time, both screening tests are not making much of a dent in the number of cancers that are deadly. That may

26、 be because many lethal breast cancers grow so fast they spring up between mammograms. And the deadly prostate ones have already spread at the time of cancer screening. The dilemma for breast and prostate screening is that it is not usually clear which tumors need aggressive treatment and which can

27、be left alone. “ The issue here is, as we look at cancer medicine over the last 35 or 40 years, we have always worked to treat cancer or to find cancer early, “ Dr. Brawley said. “ And we never sat back and actually thought. Are we treating the cancers that need to be treated?“（分数：10.00）(1).The firs

28、t two paragraphs of the passage show the American Cancer Society_.（分数：2.00）A.in shift concerning cancer screeningB.in strong opposition to cancer screeningC.focusing on the benefits of cancer screeningD.overtreating the risks that come with cancer screening(2).The author turns to the statistics and

29、follow-up reasoning, the purpose of which is to tell the reader_.（分数：2.00）A.how much American cancer medicine has done to prevent breast and prostate cancer deathsB.how hard it is for American cancer medicine to do to prevent breast and prostate cancer deathsC.cancer screening has failed to reduce l

30、ate-stage breast and prostate cancers as has been promisedD.cancer screening has failed even to find early-stage breast and prostate cancers as has been promised(3).As suggested in Paragraphs 6 and 7, the difference between benign and deadly tumors lies in the fact that_.（分数：2.00）A.benign tumors hav

31、e not been noticedB.deadly tumors have been left alone in the early stageC.deadly tumors, when screened, are already in the late stageD.benign tumors, when they are found, are already in the late stage(4).When hearing Dr. Brawley saying “The issue here is. And we never sat back and actually thought.

32、 Are we.?“ , one may be left with an impression that American cancer medicine begins to_.（分数：2.00）A.see that 40 years is not enough to find and treat cancers earlyB.doubt if it is the right thing to do to find and treat all cancersC.protest doctors have not felt relaxed when fighting cancersD.realiz

33、e doctors have been asked to offer fruitless labor(5).When finishing reading the passage, one may conclude that in the past decades American cancer medicine has been_.（分数：2.00）A.working so hard that the breast and prostate cancer rates have dropped to some extent after allB.using cancer screening to

34、 protect the health of people, especially of the victims to breast and prostate cancersC.trying to cure people of late-stage cancers, especially late-stage breast and prostate cancers, although their efforts don“t pay muchD.labeling and treating benign tumors as though they could be lethal when in f

35、act they are not dangerous, but a change is in sight nowThe Obama administration and the Federal Reserve launched a two-pronged campaign to crack down on pay practices across the financial system Thursday, marking an unprecedented foray into the private sector by the federal government on a matter t

36、hat traditionally has been left to veiled board room discussions. President Obama“s pay czar, Kenneth Feinberg, announced drastic cuts in pay for 175 top executives at seven companies that received hundreds of billions of dollars worth of federal bailout money during the financial crisis. At a news

37、conference at the Treasury Department, Feinberg said he hoped the new pay structureswhich tie compensation at the firms to their long-term performance and reduces the cash salary some executives receive by 90 percentwould serve as a model for Wall Street and corporate America. Meanwhile, the Federal

38、 Reserve issued new guidelines that will restrict pay practices at all banks to prevent them from paying employees in ways that could endanger the firms“ long-term financial health. Unlike Feinberg“s plan, the Fed“s guidance would cover all banks, even those that never received a bailout as well as

39、U. S. subsidiaries of foreign companies. “Compensation practices at some banking organizations have led to misaligned incentives and excessive risk-talking, contributing to bank losses and financial instability, “Feb Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said. “The Federal Reserve is working to ensure that compe

40、nsation packages appropriately tie rewards to long-term performance. “ The two moves represent Washington“s most dramatic push to reform executive compensation on Wall Street. The issue has long been controversial, but blew up into a firestorm in March when it was revealed American International Gro

41、up, the recipient of a $180 billion bailout package, was paying hundreds of millions of dollars in bonuses to a trading division that nearly brought the company and the financial system to its knees. Unlike Feinberg“s plan, however, the guidelines do not cap the amount of compensation that banks can

42、 give their employees, nor do they prohibit any particular pay practices. Rather, the effort requires that banks ensure that their pay practices do not encourage executives, traders, or other employees to take irresponsible risks, such as by offering huge bonuses for making bets without regard to the risks that such bets could lose money in the long term. “Incentive compensation practices in the financial industry were one of many factors contributing to the financial crisis, “ the prop
