Rarely do major diseases have a single cause. They are usually the result of a complex interaction between many factors, including genetic, environmental and lifestyle. components. Many media reports, however, can tead us to believe that if we gave up something that we might otherwise enjoy, we could completely escape that particular affliction.

Clearly, this is not the case. Vegetarians die of cancer of the colon (结肠). Teetotallers die of liver complaints, including cirrhosis (硬化). People who never go out in the sun contract skin melanomas (黑素瘤). Always, there are other factors at work than the single element being examined in a scientific study.

Quite often the alleged benefits of a particular nutritional element are the result not so much of the element itself but of the lifestyle. and general diet of the people who consume it most. People who eat lots of "healthy" foods, including fiber, carrots, broccoli etc. , also tend to drink less alcohol, take more exercise, avoid too many fatty foods and smoke less. Only when a study can rule out all of these other factors and often we do not know what these factors might be can we say that there is a causal link between two things. That is not to say that things like fiber and broccoli have no beneficial effects at all. But those with sedentary lifestyles cannot expect these foods to make them healthy.

There is, however, one thing which increases the likelihood of dying relatively young, even when all of the other factors have been taken into account. It is one of the biggest killers even among those who lead lifestyles which, by any criteria, are clearly healthy ones. This single, incontrovertible risk factor is that of being poor. Recent report from the Cancer Research Campaign suggested that 12 700 deaths could have been avoided between 1986 and 1990 if inequalities in cancer care did not exist in England and Wales. Comparing cancer survival rates, the study found that England and Wales fared unfavorably with Europe and the US, but the most affluent regions of these two countries exhibited similar figures to the European average.

In an attempt to counter this disparity the government has announced plans for the provision of Health Action Zones which seek to encourage greater cooperation between health and social services, targeting both rural and inner city areas. The emphasis of this new scheme however appears to focus on inadequacies within health education in these areas, rather than attacking the broader issues of social inequality.

According to the first paragraph, what are we likely to read in many media reports?

A．A particular disease is associated with a single cause.

B．We should enjoy as many things as possible.

C．We can never understand how different factors interact to cause a disease.

D．A disease is caused more by genes than by lifestyles.

Sometime in the middle of the 15th century， a well-to-do merchant from London buried more than 6，700 gold and silver coins on a sloping， hillside in Surrey. He was fleeing the War of the Ro-ses and planned to return during better times. But he never diD.The coins lay undisturbed until one September evening in 1990， when local resident Roger Mintey chanced upon them with a metal de-tector， a device used to determine the presence of metals. Mintey"s find much of.which now sits in the British Museum-earned him roughly $350，000， enough to quit his job with a small manu- facturer and spend more time pursuing lost treasure.

But digging up the past is controversial in Britain. In many European countries， metal detecto- fists， or people using metal detectors， face tough regulations. In the U. K.， however， officials in- troduced a scheme in 1997 encouraging hobbyists to report their discoveries （except for those fall- ing under the definition of treasure， like Mintey"s find， which they are required to report）——but al- lowing them to keep what they find， or receive a rewarD.Last year， a hidden store was uncovered

in a field outside Birmingham. It consists of more than 1，500 gold and silver objects from the sev- enth century and was valued at more than $4.5 million. While local museums hurry to raise enough money to keep the find off the open market， it sits in limbo， owned by the Crown but fa- cing claims by the landowner and the metal detectorist who found it.

The find marks the latest battleground in the increasingly heated conflict between the country"s 10，000-20，000 metal detectorists and the museum workers determined to protect its precious old objects. Supporters say the scheme stems the loss of valuable information about precious old ob-jects， while opponents argue that metal detectorists don"t report everything.

The debate centers on the larger question of who owns the past. "There"s been a slow move over the centuries that precious old things belong to us all，" says Professor Christopher Chippindale of Cambridge University. But in Britain at least， the temptation of buried treasure could change all that.

A.worth roughly $350，000

C.unearthed about 500 years ago
