	 A New Strategy to Overcome  Breast Cancer
根据以下材料回答下面的题目:
Post-menopausal ( 绝经后 ) women who walk for an hour a day can cut their chance of breast  cancer significantly, a study has suggested. The report, which followed 73,000  women for 17 years, found walking for at least seven hours a week lowered the  risk of the disease. The American Cancer Society team said this was the first  time reduced risk was specifically linked to walking. UK experts said it was  more evidence that lifestyle influenced cancer risk.
A recent poll for the charity Ramblers a quarter of adults walk for no  more than an hour a week, but being active is known to reduce the risk of a  number of cancers. This study, published in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers  & Prevention, followed 73.615 women out of 97,785 aged 50-74 who had been  recruited by the American Cancer Society between 1992 and 1993, so it could  monitor the incidence of cancer in the group.
They were asked to complete questionnaires on their health and on how  much time they were active and participating in activities such as walking,  swimming and aerobics ( 有氧运动 ) and how much time they spent sitting watching television or  reading. They completed the same questionnaires at two-year intervals between 1997  and 2009. Of the women, 47% said walking was their only recreational activity.  Those who walked for at least seven hours per week had a 14% lower risk of  breast cancer compared to those who walked three or fewer hours per week.
Dr. Alpa Patel, a senior epidemiologist at the American Cancer Society  in Atlanta, Georgia, who led the study, said: "Given that more than 60% of  women report some daily walking, promoting walking as a healthy leisure-time  activity could be an effective strategy for increasing physical activity  amongst post-menopausal women. We were pleased to find that without any other  recreational activity, just walking one hour a day was associated with a lower  risk of breast cancer in these women." "More strenuous ( 紧张的) and  longer activities lowered the risk even more."
Baroness Delyth Morgan, chief executive of Breast Cancer Campaign, said:  "This study adds further evidence that our lifestyle choices can play a  part in influencing the risk of breast cancer and even small changes  incorporate into our normal day-to-day activity can make a difference."
She added: "We know that the best weapon to overcoming breast  cancer is the ability to stop it occurring in the first place. The challenge  now is how we turn these findings into action and identify other sustainable lifestyle  changes that will help us prevent breast cancer."
