4．Cell phones：Is there a cancer link？
worrying about the possibility that phones，power lines and Wi-Fi could be responsible for a range of illnesses，from rashes （疹子）to brain tumors．
Some say there is evidence to support the growing anxieties．David Carpenter，a professor of environmental health sciences at the university at Albany，in New York，thinks there's a greater than 95percent chance that power lines can cause childhood leukemia （a kind of blood disease）．Also there's a greater than 90percent chance that cell phones can cause brain tumors．"It's clear now that there's a real risk，"said Carpenter．
But others believe these worries caused by some experts'warnings are not justified （验证）．Dr Martha Linet，head of radiation epidemiology（流行病学）at the US National Cancer Institute，has looked at the same research as Carpenter but has reached a different conclusion．"I don't support warning labels （标签） for cell phones，"said Linet．"We don't have the evidence that there's much danger．"
Studies so far suggest a weak connection between EMFs （电磁场）and illness-so weak that it might not exist at all．A multinational investigation（调查） of cell phones and brain cancer，in 13countries outside the US，has been under way for several years．Its funded（provide money） in part by the European Union，in part by a cell phone industry group．The final report should come out later this year，but data （数据）so far don't suggest a strong link between cell phone use and cancer risk．

19．In America，Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort：brilliant beaches，a lively boardwalk，plenty of restaurants and nightspots，and amusement rides sure to appeal to kids．Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the offseason，when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild．
Meanwhile，some safety tips should be followed，enjoying the happiness and excitement the beach offers．
The number 1safety tip concerns ocean safety：pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands．Lifeguards post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous．Take them seriously!Tourists from landlocked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves．However，a calm ocean can become risky without warning．Make sure you swim near a lifeguard．Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards．
Never swim alone．Many drownings involve single swimmer．When you swim with someone else，if one of you has a problem，the other may be able to get help，including signaling for assistance from others．
Don't fight the current．The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents．These currents are formed by surf and gravity，because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach，gravity pulls it back．This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore．If you are caught in a rip current，don't fight it by trying to swim directly to shore．Instead，swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax，then swim to shore．Most rip currents are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety．

21．Tourists believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the offseason becauseD．
A．the towns nearby are empty and the tourists can enjoy quietness
B．the weather is hot and the tourists can swim in the sea
C．the beach can offer the tourists happiness and excitement
D．the weather is still mild and there are fewer tourists in the towns nearby
22．Which statement below is TURE according to the passage？A
A．Land-locked tourists are more attracted by the beauty of the waves．
B．The red flag means the ocean is clam and safe．
C．Swimming near a lifeguard won't bring you safety．
D．Fighting the current is exciting and fun．
23．From the passage，we can infer thatB．
A．one in five persons swimming in the sea is drowned
B．if one with a lifeguard were drowning，five persons without lifeguards would be
C．some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards
D．some 20% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards．

17．There were smiling children all the way．Clearly they knew at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway，wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang．Often whole families stood outside their homes and waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives．This is the simple village people of Malaysia．I was moved．
I had always traveled to Malaysia by plane or car，so this was the first time I was on a train．I did not particularly relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread．I looked about the train．There was not one familiar face．I sighed and sat down to read my Economics．
It was not long before the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia．Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore，so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past．As we went beyond the city，I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green．Then the first village came into sight，immediately I came alive； I decided to wave back．
From then on my journey became interesting．I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life．Then everything came alive．The mountains seemed to speak to me．Even the trees were smiling．I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time．
The day passed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry．I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3：00pm．Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth．I looked at the people all around me．They all looked beautiful．When my uncle waved with a smile，I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug．I had never done this before．He seemed surprised and then his weather-beaten face warmed up with a huge smile．We walked arm in arm to his car．
I looked forward to the return journey．
