Skin Cancer
Melanoma (黑素瘤), the deadliest kind of skin cancer, is now the most common cancer in【51】British women, the country’s leading cancer organization said Wednesday. Skin cancer has【52】cervical (子宫颈的) cancer as the top cancer striking women in their 20s, according to the latest data from Cancer Research United Kingdom.
The trend is particularly【53】since younger people are not generally those most susceptible (易患的) to melanoma. Rates of skin cancer are【54】highest in people over age 75.

Based on current numbers, Cancer Research UK predicts that melanoma will become the fourth【57】common cancer for men and women of all ages by 2024, and that cases will jump from about 9,000 cases a year to more than 15,500.

"Spending time on sun beds is just as【59】as staying out too long in the sun," said Caroline Cerny of Cancer Research UK. The organization is starting a SunSmart【60】to warn Britons of the dangers of being too bronzed.
"The intensity of ultraviolet rays in some sun beds can be more than 10【61】stronger than the midday sun," Cerny said.
In the United States, several states require parental approval【62】minors can use tanning salons. Wisconsin bans people 16 and【63】from using tanning beds, and others ban children under 14. At least 29 states have regulations governing minors’ use of tanning salons.
In the U. K. , Scottish politicians passed legislation banning those under 18 from using tanning beds, though it hasn’t yet been implemented. There are no plans for【64】in the rest of the U. K.
The World Health Organization has previously recommended that tanning beds be regulated because of their potential to damage DNA in the skin.
Experts said most deadly skin cancers could be【65】if people took the proper precautions when in the sun and avoided tanning beds.
