单选题 A meager diet may give you health and long life, but it is not much fun—and it might not even be necessary.
A. scanty B. lavish C. balanced D. nutrient

【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析] meager意为“不足的,贫乏的”。A选项:scanty意为“(大小或数量)不足的,勉强够的”,与画线的单词意义相符,如:There is scanty evidence to support their accusations.(他们的指控证据不足。)句意:节食可能使你健康长寿,但并不好玩,甚至可能没有必要。故选A。其他三项:lavish过分慷慨的;balanced平稳的,安定的;nutrient营养物的。
