8、reet art has become much more sophisticated since a 17-year-old called Demetrius started spraying his “tag“, TAKI 183, all over the New York underground in 1971, and hip-hop culture was born. Hip-hop is a mixture of art, music and dancing, poetry, language and fashion. It came from young inner-city

17、een Test1 Every year millions of women are screened with X-rays to pick up signs of breast cancer. If this happens early enough, the disease can often be treated successfully. According to a survey published last year, 21 countries have screening programs. Nine of them, including Australia, Canada,

18、the USA and Spain, screen women under 50.2 But the medical benefit of screening these younger women are controversial, partly because the tradition brings a small risk of inducing cancer. Also, younger women must be given higher doses of X-rays because their breast tissue is denser.3 Researchers at

19、the Polytechnic University of Valencia analyzed the effect of screening more than 160,000 women at 11 local clinics. After estimating the womens cumulative dose of radiation, they used two models to calculate the number of extra cancers this would cause.4 The mathematical model recommended by Britai

20、ns National Radiological Protection Board (NRPB) predicted that the screening program would cause 36 cancers per 100,000 women, 18 of them fatal. The model preferred by the UN Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation led to a lower figure of 20 cancers.5 The researchers argue that the

21、 level of radiation-induced cancers is “not very significant“ compared to the far greater number of cancers that are discovered and treated. The Valencia program, they say, detects between 300 and 450 cases of breast cancer in every 100,000 women screened.6 But they point out that the risk of women

22、contracting cancer from radiation could be reduced by between 40 and 80 percent if screening began at 50 instead of 45, because they would be exposed to less radiation. The results of their study, they suggest, could help “optimize the technique“ for breast cancer screening.7 “There is a trade-off b

23、etween the diagnostic benefits of breast screening and its risks,“ admits Michael Clark of the NRPR. But he warns that the study should be interpreted with caution. “On the basis of the current data, far every 10 cancers successfully detected and prevented there is a risk of causing one later in lif

27、tion Association claims, “The school bus is a mirror of the community.“ They further add that, unfortunately, what appears on the exterior does not always reflect the reality of a chosen community.

This year he will celebrate 30 years working for Althouse Bus Transportation. Company President Larry Althouse acknowledges Bruce Hardys outstanding re

Recognized in 2000 by the Pennsylvania School Bus Association for driving 350,000 accident free miles, Hardys reputation is made further evident through the relationships he

37、 servic六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)Dont Count on Dung (粪)Conservationists (自然保护主义者) may be miscalculating the numbers of the threatened animals such as elephants, say African and American researchers. The error occurs because of a flaw in the way they estimate animal numbers from the piles of dung the crea

38、tures leave behind.The mistake could lead researchers to think that there are twice as many elephants as there really are in some regions according to Andrew Plumptre of the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) in New York.Biologist Katy Payne of Comell University in Ithaca, New York, agrees, “We rea

39、lly need to know elephant numbers and the evidence that we have is quite indirect, “ says Payne, who electronically tracks elephants.Counting elephants from planes is impossible in the vast rainforests of Central Africa. So researchers often estimate elephant numbers by counting dung piles in a give

40、n area. They also need to know the rate at which dung decays because its extremely difficult to determine these rates. However, researchers counting elephants in one region tend to rely on standard decay rates established elsewhere.But researchers at the WCS have found that this decay rate varies fr

41、om region to region depending on the climate and environment. Using the wrong values can lead the census astray (离开正道), says Plumptre.He and his colleague Anthony Chifu Nchanji studied decaying elephant dung in the forests of Cameroon. They found that the dung decayed between 55 and 65 per cent more

42、 slowly than the dung in the rainforests of neighboring Gabon. If researchers use decay rates from Gabon to count elephants in Cameroon, they would probably find more elephants than are actually around. This could mean estimates in Cameroon are at least twice as high as those derived from decay rate

43、s calculated locally, Plumptre says, “However accurate your dung density estimate might be, the decay rate can severely affect the result“.Plumptre also says that the dung-pile census should be carried out over a region similar in size to an elephants natural range. The usual technique of monitoring

44、 only small, protected areas distorts numbers because elephants move in and out of these regions, he says, “If the elephant population increases within the protected area, you can not determine whether. It is a real increase or whether it is due to elephants moving in because they are being poached

45、(入侵偷猎) outside.“Plumptre says that similar problems may also affect other animal census studies that rely on indirect evidence such as nests, tracks or burrows (地洞).（分数：15.00）(1).The word “threatened“ in the first sentence of the first paragraph could be best replaced by _.（分数：3.00）A.“endangered“B.“

46、frightened“C.“killed“D.“angered“(2).Why do researchers estimate elephant numbers in an area by counting dung piles?（分数：3.00）A.Because elephants are difficult to catch.B.Because it is not possible to count elephants from a plane.C.Because it is not possible to keep track of elephants.D.Because elepha

47、nts are shy animals.(3).Piles of dung cant be relied upon when it comes to estimating elephant numbers because _.（分数：3.00）A.they are different in size.B.they scatter an over the region.C.they are different in decay rate.D.they are different in quality.(4).According to Plumptre, the region over which

48、 a dung-pile census is carried out should be _（分数：3.00）A.small enoughB.well protectedC.carefully monitoredD.large enough(5).The first word “He“ in paragraph 6 refers to _.（分数：3.00）A.Andrew Plumptre.B.Katy Payne.C.Anthony Chifu Nchanji.D.the writer of the articl七、第三篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)More Than Just Mon
