30、e Reading Comprehension.Text AThe American Cancer Society, which has long been a staunch defender of most 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 earl
31、y next year, to emphasize that screening for breast and prostate cancers and certain other cancers can come with a real risk of overtreating many small cancers while missing cancers that are deadly.The cancer societys decision to reconsider its message about the risks as well as potential benefits o
32、f screening was spurred in part by an analysis published Wednesday in The Journal of the American Medical 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 can
33、cers, but just a 10 percent decline in cancers that have spread beyond the breast to the lymph nodes or 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
34、that once were found late, when they were often incurable, would now be found early, when they could 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 breas
35、t and prostate cancers. Still, the researchers and others say, they do not think all screening will or should go 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 i
36、n the cancer societys mammogram message which states that a mammogram is “one of the best things a woman 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 ha
37、ve been told about cancer: They are finding cancers that do not need to be found because they would 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, bo
38、th screening tests are not making much of a dent in the number of cancers that are deadly. That may 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 prost
39、ate screening is that it is not usually clear which tumors need aggressive treatment and which can 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 a
40、nd actually thought, Are we treating the cancers that need to be treated? ”61. The first two paragraphs of the passage show the American Cancer Society _.A. in shift concerning cancer screeningB. in strong opposition to cancer screeningC. focusing on the benefits of cancer screeningD. overtreating t
41、he risks that come with cancer screening62. The author turns to the statistics and follow-up reasoning, the purpose of which is to tell the reader _.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 late-stage breast and prostate cancers as has been promised
