　　Dr Lesley Walker, director of cancer information at Cancer Research UK, said: This study gives us a clear indication that men who exercise are less 12 to die from cancer, and that they are more likely to 13__the disease if they get it. Its not entirely clear from this study

　　2.C look at表示觀察、研究。

　　3.B between 45 and 79顯然指的是這些男人的年齡，因此應(yīng)選aged。

　　重于對存在的預(yù)期，因而可以說It is possible for them to do，而不說they are possible to do，所以應(yīng)選likely。
