第二部分：阅读理解。（共两节满分40分）
第一节（共15题，每小题2分，满分30分）
A
Eating raw garlic just twice a week can almost halve the risk of lung cancer, new rearch shows. A study carried out in China found adults regularly consuming raw garlic as part of their diet were 44 per cent less likely to suffer the dia. Even when
rearchers allowed for whether people smoked - the biggest single cau of lung cancer - they found garlic still emed to reduce the dangers by around 30 per cent.
Around 40,000 people a year are diagnod with lung cancer in England and Wales alone. Smoking is thought to cau at least 80 per cent of cas and fewer than one in ten sufferers are still alive five years after their diagnosis. Previous studies have suggested garlic can protect the lungs against various conditions, as well as ward off other malignancies such as bowel (肠) cancer.
One study at the University of South Australia suggested the popular herb could slash the risk of bowel tumours（肿瘤）by nearly a third. In the latest investigation, scientists at Jiangsu Provincial Centre for Dia Control and Prevention compared 1,424 lung cancer patients with 4,500 healthy adults. Each one was quizzed on their dietary and lifestyle habits, including how often they consumed garlic and whether they smoked.
The results, published online in the journal Cancer Prevention Rearch, showed tho who ate raw garlic at least twice a week were significantly less likely to get lung cancer, e
ven if they smoked or were expod to high-temperature cooking oil fumes, thought to be another cau for the dia. It's not clear whether cooked garlic would have the same effect.
But previous rearch suggests the key ingredient ems to be a chemical called allicin. It is thought to ea inflammation(炎症) in the body and act as an anti-oxidant, reducing damage from so-called free radicals to the body's cells. Other studies have found it may help ward off the common cold, hospital superbugs and even malaria.
