[2013·山西省康杰中学高二第一次月考]

Scientists in Canada say big ocean fish have almost disappeared W1from the world since the start of industrial W2 fishing in the nineteen－fifties. The scientists found that population W3of large fish like tuna, swordfish and cod have dropped by ninety percent in the past fifty years.

The study took ten years. The researchers gathered records from fishing businesses and governments around the world. The magazine Nature published the findings.

The scientists say the common method called longline fishing is especially W4damaging to populations of large fish. This method in v ol v es W5many fishing lines connected to one boat. These wires can be close to one－hundred kilometers long. They hold thousands of sharp metal hooks to catch fish.

Longline fishing is especially common in the Japanese fishing industry. Records showed that Japanese boats used to catch about ten fish for every one－hundred hooks. The study says longline fishing boats now might catch one fish per hundred hooks.

The scientists say industrial fishing can destroy W6groups of fish much faster than in the past. The study suggests that whole populations can disappear almost completely from new fishing areas within ten to fifteen years.

Ransom Myers of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia led the study with Boris Worm of Dalhousie and the University of Kiel in Germany. Mister Worm says the destruction W7could lead to a complete re－organization of ocean life systems. Mister Meyers says

the decreased W8number of large fish is not the only worry. He says e v en populations that are able to reproduce do not get the chance to li v e long enough to gro w as big as their ancestors (祖先).S He says not only are there fewer big fish, they are smaller than those of the past.

American government scientists say even with the best efforts to protect fish populations, decreases are to be expected.

Washington(Reuters)－People who drink two or more sweetened soft drinks a week have a much higher risk of pancreatic cancer(胰腺癌), an unusual but deadly W1cancer, researchers reported on Monday.

People who drank mostly fruit juice instead of P1sodas did not have the same risk, the study of 60,000 people in Singapore found.

Sugar may be to blame P2but people w ho drink s w eetened sodas regularly W2often ha v e other poor health habits, said Mark Pereira of the Uni v ersity of Minnesota, w ho led the study.S

“The high levels of sugar in soft drinks may be increasing the level of insulin(胰岛素) in the body, which we think contributes to P3 pancreatic cancer cell's growth，”Pereira said in a statement.

Writing in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, Pereira and his colleagues said they followed 60,524 men and women in the Singapore Chinese Health Study for 14 years.

Over that time, 140 of the volunteers developed pancreatic cancer. Those who drank two or more sweetened soft drinks a week had an 87 percent higher risk of being among those who got pancreatic cancer.

Pereira said he believed the findings would apply elsewhere.

“Singapore is a w ealthy W3country with excellent health care. Favorite pastimes(消遣) are eating and shopping, so the findings should apply to P4other Western countries，” he said.

But Susan Mayne of the Yale Cancer Center at Yale University in Connecticut was cautious.

“Although this study found a risk W4, the finding w as based on P5 a relatively small number of cases and it remains unclear whether it is a causal (因果的) connection W5or not.” said Mayne, who serves on the board of the journal, which is published by the American Association for Cancer Research.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest forms of cancer, with 230,000 cases globally. In the United States, 37,680 people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in a year and 34,290 die of it.
