Doctor 1

While the drugs used for chemotherapy can be very strong, they need to be. Cancer, by its very definition, is made up of cells growing at a faster than normal rate. This means the treatment needs to be aggressive. The slower the effects of treatment, the more time the cancer has to spread; therefore, while the chemotherapy can also kill some healthy noncancerous cells in the process, it is still the best option.

Doctor 2

Chemotherapy does much more harm than good. Chemotherapy might temporarily destroy the cancer, but it does not cure the cancer. In addition, killing the cancerous cells means poisoning the body with chemicals and toxins. Instead, we should be addressing the reasons cancer exists in the first place, treating it at that step. Cancer is due to toxins in the body, industrial pollutions, and drugs. Avoiding sugar, exercising, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle—free of toxins, processed food, and other containments—is the best approach.

Doctor 3

Chemotherapy is effective in the sense that it kills the cancer cells. The downfall is that chemotherapy also kills the healthy cells in the process; therefore, we should be looking at way to decrease the amount of chemotherapy needed, so that we are only introducing the minimum amount of toxins into the body. Insulin Potentiating Therapy is a type of chemotherapy in which lower doses of chemotherapy are used because they are combined with insulin.

Directions:Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question.PassageNATURAL SCIENCE: Michigans Beloved SongbirdSometimes an object in nature is so rare thatit escapes mention in nature books. Such is thecase with the delightful Kirtland’s warbler, a plump,yellow-breasted bird that can be found nesting almost(5) exclusively in the northern half of Michigan’s LowerPeninsula. Although this bird migrates to the Bahamasfor the winter, Michigan is its natural habitat. Unfortu-nately, so few Kirtland’s warblers exist that the speciesis classified endangered. The remaining Kirtland’s(10) warblers now enjoy living in stands of young Jack pineslocated in protected Michigan forests.Interestingly, the Kirtland’s warbler nests onthe ground in the jack pine forests, and not in thetrees themselves. Male warblers generally return to(15) Michigan in May to spend the summer. Females arriveas the males stake out territory and choose a suitablenesting area. At the completion of the long journeyfrom the Bahamas to Michigan, female warblers beginto collect leaves and grass to build their nests. During(20) this process, the female warblers’ mates provides food.Eventually, female Kirtland’s warblers each lay fourto five speckled eggs. The eggs hatch in two to threeweeks, and both the male and female warblers tend tothe chicks. Five weeks after they hatch, the fledglings(25) are prepared to survive on their own.Kirtland’s warblers are extremely fastidious abouttheir habitat. This is probably why these birds havebecome endangered. Kirtland’s warblers insist on liv-ing in expansive areas of Jack pine forest rooted in(30) Grayling sand, which percolates quickly to preventflooding of nests built on or near the ground. Graylingsand also supports the type of plant material that thewarblers prefer for their diet and nest building.If not for ongoing human conservation efforts,(35) this special habitat and this rare bird would probablynot exist today. As the massive 19th-century loggingboom faded in Michigan, natural forest fires increased,fueled by the burgeoning undergrowth. Jack pine num-bers increased dramatically, since the tree depends on(40) regular fires to expose the seeds within its tough cones.The early 1900s, though, saw natural fires suppressedby new forest management policies and, consequently,Jack pine forests quickly diminished. This greatlyreduced the number of nesting areas available for the(45) Kirtland’s warbler.To correct this problem, Jack pine areas are cur-rently managed on a rotating basis. This ensures anappropriate number of nesting sites, which encour-ages warblers to return and reproduce annually. The(50) protected Jack pine forests are also home to the white-tailed deer, the black bear, the Eastern bluebird, theupland sandpiper, and the snowshoe hare. Unfortu-nately, for the Kirtland’s warbler, the brown-headedcowbird is also prevalent in these woods. This brood(55) parasite is well known for its tendency to steal thenests of other birds by replacing the original bird’seggs with its own eggs. When the chicks are hatched,the warblers raise the young cowbirds as their own.This, of course, negatively impacts the population of(60) the Kirtland’s warbler. Studies have shown that when acowbird lays one egg in a warbler’s nest, generally onlyone to three warbler chicks will survive. If two or morecowbird chicks survive in a single warbler nest, noneof the warblers will survive. To combat this dilemma,(65) government programs have been established to trap anderadicate cowbirds that attempt to nest in the warblers’habitat. These efforts have greatly improved the sur-vival and proliferation of the Kirtland’s warbler overthe past few decades.(70) The male Kirtland’s warbler is prized as a song-bird, emitting a persistent, melodic song audible up toa quarter-mile away. For researchers, counting thesesongs becomes important during mating season, sincesaving the warbler from extinction demands an annual(75) census of the population to ensure that conservationmeasures are effective.Debates periodically surface over whether toreplace the robin with the Kirtland’s warbler asMichigan’s state bird. Admirers of the Kirtland’s(80) warbler argue that it is strictly a Michigan bird.Supporters of the robin point out that the Kirtland’swarbler is only present in Michigan for, at most, halfof the year. Perhaps this debate will continue until moreresidents have a chance to see the beautiful and elusive(85) Kirtland’s warbler, which calls Michigan home.Q.According to the passage, what is the reason jack pine forests declined in the early 1900s?

Directions:Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question.PassageThe Great Lakes are a group of ﬁve large lakes located in the United States and Canada. They make up the largest group of fresh water lakes in the world, and the Great LakesSt. Lawrence River system is the largest freshwater system in the world. Recently, near-historic low water levels have plagued the water system. Two scientists discuss the causes of low lake level in the Great Lakes.Scientist 1Water levels are part of the ebb and ﬂow of nature. The determining factor in whether the water level will rise, fall, or remain stable is the difference between the amount of water coming into a lake and the amount going out. When several months of above-average precipitation occur with cooler, cloudy conditions that cause less evaporation, the lake levels gradually rise. Likewise, the lowering of water levels will result from prolonged periods of lower-than-average precipitation and warmer temperatures.The recent decline of water levels in the Great Lakes, now at lows not seen since the mid-1960s, is due to a number of causes. Higher degrees of evaporation from warmer than usual temperatures in recent years, a series of mild winters, and below-average snow pack in the Lake Superior basin all contribute to the phenomenon. Since precipitation, evaporation, and runoff are the major factors affecting the water supply to the lakes, levels cannot be controlled or accurately predicted for more than a few weeks into the future. Further, the inﬂuence of human regulation on lake levels is inconsequential. Because water is added through snow and rain and taken away through evaporation, nature has most of the control over lake levels.Scientist 2Several human activities have affected levels and ﬂow of the water in the Great Lakes. For example, structures have been built to regulate the outﬂows of both Lake Superior and Lake Ontario. Lake Superior has been regulated since 1921 as a result of hydroelectric and navigation developments in the St. Mary’s River, such as the Soo Locks. Lake Ontario has been regulated since 1960 after completion of the St. Lawrence Seaway and Power Project. Diversions bring water into, and take water out of, the Great Lakes. Many such diversions were constructed for hydropower generation and logging. For example, the Lake Michigan diversion at Chicago moves water out of Lake Michigan and into the Mississippi River for domestic, navigation, hydroelectric, and sanitation purposes.In addition, the St. Clair and Detroit rivers have been dredged and modiﬁed. This has caused some drop in the levels of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. Channel and shoreline modiﬁcations in connecting the channels of the Great Lakes have affected lake levels and ﬂows as well, because the inﬁlling of shoreline areas can reduce the ﬂow carrying-capacity of the river. Further, the extensive use of groundwater deposited in massive aquifers (underground layers of water-bearing permeable rock) in the Midwest has affected the lake levels. Vast quantities of water depositedin aquifers surrounding the Great Lakes are taken to population centers outside of the Great Lakes’ watershed (region of land whose water drains into a speciﬁed body of water).Thus, the water in the lakes is not replenished.Q.Which of the following statements best describes how Scientist 1 would explain why human interference is of little importance in determining lake levels?

Each study was conducted indoors in a temperature-controlled room. A straight track was constructed and measured to be 75 feet long. The car’s travel time was measured from start to ﬁnish with a stopwatch. The temperature in the room was kept constant at 20 F and the surface was returned to its original condition after each trial.

The slower the effects of treatment, the more time the cancer has to spread; therefore, while the chemotherapy can also kill some healthy noncancerous cells in the process, it is still the best option.Doctor 2Chemotherapy does much more harm than good. Chemotherapy might temporarily destroy the cancer, but it does not cure the cancer. In addition, killing the cancerous cells means poisoning the body with chemicals and toxins. Instead, we should be addressing the reasons cancer exists in the first place, treating it at that step. Cancer is due to toxins in the body, industrial pollutions, and drugs. Avoiding sugar, exercising, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle—free of toxins, processed food, and other containments—is the best approach.Doctor 3Chemotherapy is effective in the sense that it kills the cancer cells. The downfall is that chemotherapy also kills the healthy cells in the process; therefore, we should be looking at way to decrease the amount of chemotherapy needed, so that we are only introducing the minimum amount of toxins into the body. Insulin Potentiating Therapy is a type of chemotherapy in which lower doses of chemotherapy are used because they are combined with insulin. Cancer cells have more insulin receptors than non-cancerous cells; therefore, cancer cells will have a biased absorption of such insulin-based chemotherapy when compared with noncancerous cells. In other words, piggybacking chemotherapy onto insulin allows cancer cells to absorb more of the chemotherapy, meaning less chemotherapy is needed and fewer noncancerous cells absorb the chemotherapy.Q. What fact do all three doctors seem to agree upon?a)Chemotherapy has many harmful side effects that might outweigh the good effects of chemotherapy. b)Chemotherapy should be used as a last option.c)Chemotherapy should not be used.d)Chemotherapy has side effects.Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer? has been provided alongside types of Three doctors are discussing the most optimal way to approach cancer treatment. While they all acknowledge that cancer is uncontrolled cell proliferation, they have different opinions on whether chemotherapy is the best treatment method. Chemotherapy is the treatment of cancer with cytotoxic antienoplastic drugs. These drugs are used to kill fast-growing cancerous cells.
