　　Breast Cancer Deaths Record Low

　　The number of women dying from breast cancer has fallen to a record low by dropping under 12,000 a year for the first time since records began.

　　The Cancer Research UK data showed that 11 ,990 women died in the UK in 2007.

　　The previous lowest figure had been recorded in 1971-the year records began-after which it rose steadily year by year until the late 1980s.

　　Professor Peter Johnson, Cancer Research UK's chief clinician, said, It's incredibly encoura- ging to see fewer women dying from breast cancer now than at any time in the last 40 years, despite breast cancer being diagnosed more often.

　　Research has played a crucial role in this progress leading to improved treatments and better management for women with the disease.

　　"The introduction of the NHS（国民保健制度）breast screening program has also contributed as women are more likely to survive the earlier cancer is diagnosed."

　　Breast cancer is now the most common cancer in the UK with 45,500 women every year diag nosed with the disease-a 50% rise in 25 years.

　　The number of deaths peaked in 1989, when 15,625 women died. It then fell by between 200 and 400 deaths each year until 2004.

　　There was a slight rise in 2005 and then two vears of falls.

　　Dr Sarah Cant, policy manager at Breakthrough Breast Cancer, said, "It is great news that fewer women are dying from breast cancer and highlights the impact of improved treatments, breast screening and awareness of the disease.

　　"However, this is still too many women and incidence（发生率）of the disease is increasing year by year."

　　The rising rate of breast cancer diagnosis has been put down to a variety of factors including obesity（肥胖）and alcohol consumption.

　　参考答案及解析

　　16.A[解析]在英国，2007年有11，990名女士死于乳腺癌。根据第二段：The Cancer Research UK data showed that 11．990 women died in the UK in 2007.英国癌症研究中心的数据显示，2007年英国妇女的死亡人数是11，990。虽然没有专门强调这一死亡人数是由于乳腺癌而死亡，不过根据句子中的Cancer Research和第一段的内容推断这里即乳腺癌患者的死亡人数。因此该论断是正确的。

　　17．A[解析]在英国，乳腺癌患者的死亡率统计是从1971年开始的。根据文章第三段中：The previous lowest figure had been recorded in 1971-the year records began…。先前的最低点是在1971年，即开始做该统计的那一年。由此得知该论断是正确的。

　　18.B [解析]在英国被诊断为乳腺癌的比例一直在降低。根据第四段：- despite breast cancer being diagnosed more often。…尽管被诊断为乳腺癌的病例越来越常见。由此可知该论断是错误的。

　　19.C [解析]该论断文章中未提及。

　　20.C[解析]该论断文章中未提及。

　　21.B [解析]2005年死于乳腺癌的患者少于2004年。根据倒数第四段中：There was a slight rise in 2005。2005年人数轻微上升。由此可以推断该论断是错误的。

　　22．C[解析]最后一段说obesity（肥胖）and alcohol consumption是诱发乳腺癌的原因之一，但并未提及其他疾病，因此选C。put down to的意思是"归因于"。
