In most of the lines 34 — 45 there is one extra word. It is either grammatically incorrect or does not fit in with the meaning of the text. Some lines, however, are correct.
If a line is correct, write CORRECT on your Answer Sheet.

The U. S. economy is growing most slowly, the U. S. Federal Reserve said on
Wednesday in a report. Economic business activity in most districts is
34 reported to be generally good and expanding moderately, in according to a
35 survey of regional business conditions last week. But the survey found
36 labour-market tightness and, in a few of regions, rift tightness appears to be
37 broadly based. As a result, wage gains have been tended to outstrip price increases.
38 The survey will be ruled by Federal Reserve policy-makers when they will meet
39 next month to consider adjusting interest rates. It was based on with information
40 collected during the middle of last week. There is a growing belief that Federal
41 Reserve officials will raise up short-term interest rates at the meeting to slow
42 economic growth and prevent from any acceleration in inflation. Recent reports,
43 including for shrinking unemployment, expanding factory orders and continued
44 high levels of home sales, have caused many to ask question earlier beliefs
45 that the dynamic economy in the country will slow by itself in the near future.

Many Older Doctors Plan to Phase out Their Practice
The results of a new survey indicate that 48 percent of physicians between 50 and 65 years of age are planning to reduce or end their clinical practice in the next 1 to 3 years. The findings also suggest that many older physicians believe that their younger counterparts do not have the work ethic they do.
The survey, which was conducted by Merritt Hawkins & Associates, a Texas-based physician search and consulting firm, suggests that many older physicians are simply unhappy with the changes that have taken place in medicine over the years.
"When Baby Boom doctors entered medicine they had control over how they practiced and the fee they charged But the rules changed on them in mid-stream and now many are looking for a ticket out," Mark Smith, executive vice president of Merritt Hawkins & Associates, said in a statement.
"Our study is the only one I am aware of that examines the career plans of physicians in the 50-to-65 age group." This age group represents more than one-third of all physicians in the U. S. If they stop working in the coming years, it will have a "significant impact" on the overall supply of physicians, Smith told Reuters Health.
The results of the survey, which included 1,170 respondents (调查对象), show that 24 percent of older physicians are planning to leave clinical practice all together in the next 1 to 3 years. Specifically, 14 percent said they were planning on retiring, 7 percent said they were looking for a medical job in a non-patient care setting, and 3 percent said they were seeking a job in a non-medical field.
For those physicians not leaving clinical practice, many said they would make changes to reduce the number of patients they treat. For instance, 12 percent said they would begin working part-time, 8 percent said they planned to stop taking new patients or markedly reduce their patient load, and 4 percent expressed a desire to work on a temporary basis.
When asked about the work ethic of physicians entering practice today, 68 percent of the respondents said that these younger doctors are not as dedicated or as hard working as physicians who entered practice 20 to 30 years ago.
Fifty-seven percent of older physicians said they would not recommend medicine as a career to their own children. Similarly, 44 percent said they would not select medicine as a career if they were starting out today.
"The most ominous (不祥的) finding is that about one half of physicians surveyed plan to either abandon patient care in the next 1 to 3 years, or significantly reduce the number of patients they see," Smith said "The U. S. already is facing a widespread shortage of physicians. Should older, 'workhorse' physicians choose to opt out of patient care, access to medical services will be further restricted."
Which is NOT true of physicians in the 50-to-65 age group in the U. S.?
A.They are mostly baby boomers.
B.They have nothing to complain about.
C.Many of them plan to gradually stop their practice.
D.They account for over one-third of all physicians in the country.

Survey Finds Many Women Misinformed about Cancer
63 percent of American women think that if there&39;s no family history of cancer, you&39;re not likely to develop the disease, a new survey found.
In fact, most people who develop cancer have no family history of cancer. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) (美国妇产科医师学会) , which sponsored the survey.
"Too many women are dying from cancer," Dr. Douglas W. Laube, ACOG&39;s immediate past president, said during a Friday teleconference. "An estimated 200,070 women will die in the U. S.this year, and over 600,078 women will be diagnosed with cancer. The results of this survey found a worrisome (令人担忧的) gap in women&39;s knowledge about cancer."
Based on the findings, ACOG is increasing its efforts to educate women about cancer and the need for regular screening tests.
Although the survey found many misconceptions (错误观念) about cancer,76 percent of women surveyed did say they feel knowledgeable about how they can reduce their risk of the disease.
However, only 52 percent said they were doing enough to reduce that risk. And 10 percent said they hadn&39;t done anything in the past year to lower their risk.17 percent said they wouldn&39;t change their lifestyles, even if changes would lower their cancer risk.
Many women said they were afraid to undergo screening out of fear of finding cancer.20 percent said they didn&39;t want to know if they had cancer.
In response to these findings, ACOG will launch on Oct.29 a new website, Protect&Detect:
What Women Should Know about Cancer. The guide is designed to help women to take charge of their health and improve their understanding of their risk of cancer, and the lifestyle. steps they can take to cut that risk.
