Cancer is considered a modern disease, though it was not unknown in ancient times.(The condition was named by the Greeks from their word for crab, presumably because of its clawing, crablike growth). The incidence of cancer has risen dramatically in recent decades, primarily【C1】______cigarette smoking, and cancer is probably our most dreaded disease today. As a cause of death in the United States, cancer has climbed from less than 6 percent of all deaths in 1900 to over 20 percent today,【C2】______recent statistics. It is already the leading killer of women aged thirty to fifty-four. And add a killer of the overall population, it is second only to heart disease,【C3】______close to 430,000 deaths per year. This figure has risen annually since 1949, and if percent trends continue, cancer may well overtake heart disease as the number one cause of death.

We have a better understanding of the disease and are finding ways to【C4】______it.

Even people with forms of cancer that are still difficult to treat know that current techniques may【C6】______them to outwit the disease until improved treatment becomes available. Many cancer victims have hope where there was once despair.

Not all forms of cancer have such obvious associations, but where risk factors have been【C9】______. we can use this knowledge and attempt to reduce the odds of developing those particular forms of disease. You and the people you know can【C10】______your cancer risk as individuals.
