　　The producers of instant coffee found their product strongly resisted(抵制) in the market places despite their product's obvious advantages. Furthermore，the advertising expense for instant coffee was far greater than that for regular coffee. Efforts were made to find the cause of the users' seemingly unreasonable resistance to the product. The reason given by most people was dislike for the taste. The producers doubt that there might be deeper reasons, however. This was supported by one of motivation research's classic studies, one often cited(引用) in the trade. Mason Haire of the University of California constructed two shopping lists that were the same except for one item. There were six items common to both lists: hamburger, carrots, bread, baking powder, canned peaches, and potatoes, with the brands or amounts specified. The seventh item, in fifth place on both lists, read“lib. Maxwell House coffee”on one list and“Nescafe instant coffee”on the other. One list was given to each one in a group of fifty women, and the other list to those in another group of the same size. The women were asked to study their lists and then to describe, as far as they could, the kind of woman(personality and character) who would draw up that shopping list. Nearly half of those who had received the list including instant coffee described a housewife who was lazy and a poor planner. On the other hand, only one woman in the other group described the housewife, who had included regular coffee on，her list was lazy; only six of that group suggested that she was a poor planner. Eight women felt that the instant coffee user was probably not a good wife! No one in the other group drew such a conclusion about the housewife who intended to buy regular coffee.

1．The result of the investigation showed that _____.

[　　]

A．women who used regular coffee were good planners

B．most of the women investigated were good at reasons

C．many women believed that wives who used instant coffee were lazy

[　　]

A．they didn't trust advertisements

Direction：Read the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given by the passage．

　　Behavioral risk factors have a great effect on cancer risk in the elderly population of the US, according to a research．About 80 percent of all cancers are diagnosed(诊断)in the elderly, and more than 80 percent of known risk factors are possibly preventable, US researchers say．

　　Igor Akushevich of Duke University in Durham, N．C．, said the main purpose of the study was to discover a way to find out the contributions of measurable risk factors to cancer risk among the elderly．More analysis is needed before the finding can actually be used．“So far, we have not come to the stage where we are able to make specific recommendations regarding risk factors,” Akushevich said in a statement．But according to the study, cigarette smoking does increase the risk of lung cancer．

　　The researchers said they were surprised at some of the findings．Cancer risk is not connected with alcohol drinking, as reported in other studies．A possible explanation may be that those aged 65 or older tend to drink moderately(适度地)．

　　“Other interesting findings are an increased risk of breast cancer for those women who are afraid to go to the doctor to have examinations and a decreased risk of breast and lung cancers for those who never lose their temper,” Akushevich said．

　　Light and moderate physical activities decrease the risk of cancer, but too much exercise may augment the risk, the study said．

　　The findings were presented at the American Association for Cancer Research's International Conference on Frontiers in Cancer Prevention Research．

1．Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “augment”．

2．According to the passage, what kinds of people are less likely to develop breast and lung cancer?(no more than 5 words)
