自从理查德尼克松向癌症宣战败兴已然有三十年了。其间,不少专家、学者耗费巨资试图寻找各样办法以解决这个困难。然则今天的癌症死亡率与七十年代仍旧差不多同样高。美国女性中亡于乳腺癌病人是世界上许多其他国家的五到三十倍。在泰国每十万女性中仅2至5人亡于乳腺癌,而美国的女性会有30至40人遭此厄运。就其原由,无人会否认其与膳食特别有关系。有些专家认为:“每日人们摄入二至三磅食品,这是咱们与环境最大范围的接触。”因此呢人们必要非常注意良好的膳食习惯。虽然说正确的膳食习惯不可根除世界上的癌症,但它有利于减少患癌症的危害。
参考译文: It has already been three decades since Richard Nixon declared fight against cancer, during which many specialists and scholars spent a large amount of money trying to seek various ways to crack this hard nut. Yet today the death rate of cancer is nearly as high as it was in the 1970s. American womens death rate of breast cancer is five to thirty times as high as that of women in many other countries of the world. In Thailand, only two to five out of every 100,000 women die of breast cancer, whereas in the United States, 30 to 40 meet that fate. Among all the reasons, no one denies that diet is a large part of the reason. Some scientists hold, “Its our greatest exposure to the environment because humans put two to three pounds of food into their bodies every day.” Hence people should place a great emphasis on good eating habits. Though the correct eating habit cant eliminate cancer in the world, it can help reduce the risk of cancer.
