New Technique Promises Earlier Cancer Detection A new technique could revolutionize the early detection of cancer, giving sufferers a greater chance of beating the disease, American scientists said. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have devised a novel method of 【51】 changes in the nucleus of cells in the earliest stages of the disease." More than 85 percent of all cancers originate in the epithelium (上皮) that lines the internal surfaces of organs 【52】 the body. Although these are treatable 【53】 they are diagnosed in one of the preventable stages, early body damages are almost 【54】 to detect," said scientist Feld. " We present a new optical-probe (光学探子) technique based on light-scattering spectroscopy (分光镜检查) that is able 【55】 detect precancerous and early cancerous cells in cell-rich epithelia," he added in a statement.

At 1:30 this morning, local police finally caught the jewel thief whom they had been trying to trap (诱捕) for the past two months. (51) the man they arrested, James Smith, (52) that he was the thief, he was captured with several diamond rings in his (53) . Po- lice saw Smith leaving a jewelry store on Main Street at 1:16 A, M.. (54) seeing the police, Smith jumped (55) his auto, and a high-speed chase followed for the next fourteen minutes. The police finally (56) Smith off the road and his (57) hit a tree. When the police searched Smith’s (58) , they found the diamond rings hidden in an inside pocket of his jacket. Although Smith claimed that the diamonds were fake (假的), the owner of the jewelry store (59) the most recent robbery incident happened identified them (60) his missing jewels. Smith is now awaiting his first visit to court in a cell in the town jail. If he does not (61) , a jury (陪审团) will have to decide his guilt or innocence. (62) , a representative of the police stated today that they have no (63) that he will be found to be (64) . This spokesman also stated that they hoped that the alarm (65) in the community by all the recent robberies would be calmed by Smith’s arrest.

Reading involves looking at graphic symbols and formulating mentally the sounds and ideas they represent. Concepts of reading have changed (51) over the centuries. During the 1950’s and 1960’s especially, increased attention has been devoted to defining and describing the reading process. (52) specialists agree that reading (53) a complex organization of higher mental (54) , they disagree (55) the exact nature of the process. Some expels, who regard language primarily as a code using symbols to represent sounds, view reading as simply the decoding of symbols into the sounds they stand (56) .
These authorities (57) that meaning, being concerned with thinking, must be taught independently of the decoding process. Others maintain that reading is (58) related to thinking, and that a child who pronounces sounds without (59) their meaning is not truly reading. The reader, according to some, is not just a person with a theoretical ability to read but one who (60) reads.
Many adults, although they have the ability to read, have never read a book in its (61) . By some expert they would not be classified as readers. Clearly, the philosophy, objectives, methods and materials of reading will depend on the definition one use. By the most (62) and satisfactory definition, reading is the ability to (63) the sound -symbols code of the language, to interpret meaning for various (64) , at various rates, and at various levels of difficulty, and to do so widely and enthusiastically. (65) reading is the interpretation of ideas through the use of symbols representing sounds and ideas.
