dical researchers have developed several experimental forms of this time-honored cancer treatment that seem effective in fighting the disease.
 One promising approach involves exposing cancer cells to radiation by implanting source directly into the malignant tissue. This process greatly increases the dosage and thus the effectiveness of treatment. Another technique utilizes drugs to make cancer cells more susceptible to the effects of radiation and to make normal cells resistant. Certain hugs are able to neutralize the genetic framework of cancer cells, thus making them easily affected by radiation. Both techniques have seen some positive results in the treatment of inoperable brain tumors.
 These and other methods have helped to raise the recovery rate for cancer victims from 30% 40 years ago to around 50% today. This is encouraging news for those who fall prey to one of the world’s leading killers.

‘	Telecommuting is some form of computer communication between employees’ homes and offices. For employees whose jobs involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data or typing reports, the location of the computer is of no consequence. If the machine can communicate over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office computer and transmit the material to their employers. A recent survey in USA Today estimates that there are approximately 8.7 million telecommuters. But although the numbers are rising annually, the trend does not appear to be as significant as expected when Business Week published “The Portable Executive” as its covered story a few years ago. Why hasn’t telecommuting become more popular?
	Clearly, change simply takes time. But in addition, there has been active resistance on the part of many managers. These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a large work force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managing them are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager responsibilities.
	It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are often reluctant to accept the opportunity. Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and many are concerned that they will not have the same consideration for advancement if they are not visible in the office setting. Some people feel that even when a space in their houses is set aside as a work area, they never really get away from the office.
1. With which of the following topics is the passage primary concerned?
A. The advantages of telecommuting.	B. A definition of telecommuting.
C. An overview of telecommuting.	D. The failure of telecommuting.
2. How many American workers are involved in telecommuting?
A. more than expected.	B. more than 8 million	C. fewer than last year	D. none is true
3. The word resistance could best be replaced by _____
A. alteration	B. participation	C. opposition	D. consideration
4. The word them refers to ______.
A. telecommuters	B. systems	C. executives	D. responsibilities
5. It can be inferred from the passage that the author is ______.
A. a telecommuter	B. the manager of a group of telecommuter
C. a statistician	D. a reporter
