If I ask you what constitutes "bad" eating, the kind that leads to obesity and a variety of connected diseases, you're likely to answer, "Salt, fat and sugar." Yet that's not a(n)【C1】______ answer. We don't know everything about the dietary【C2】______ to chronic disease, but the best-qualified people argue that real food is more likely to promote health and less likely to cause disease than hyper-processed food. And we can further【C3】______ that message: Minimally processed food—Real Food—should【C4】______ our diets. Real food solves the salt / fat / sugar problem.

"Fat" is a complicated topic. Most naturally occurring fats are probably essential, but too much of some fats seems【C8】______. Eat real food【C9】______ your fat intake will probably be fine. "Sugar" has come to【C10】______ the entire group of processed, nutritionally worthless caloric sweeteners. All appear to be damaging because they're added sugars, as【C11】______ to naturally occurring ones.【C12】______: Sugar is not the only enemy. The enemy is hyper-processed food,【C13】______ sugar. We know that eating real food is a general solution, but a large part of our dietary problems might【C14】______ from the consumption of caloric sweeteners and / or hyper-processed carbohydrate. For example, how to limit the intake of sugar? A soda tax is a(n) 【C15】______, proper labeling would be helpful, and—quite possibly most important, 【C16】______ it's going to take us a generation or two to get out of this mess—restrictions【C17】______ marketing sweet "food" to children. There's no reason to【C18】______ action on those kinds of moves. But let's get the science straight so that firm,【C19】______, sound recommendations can be made【C20】______ the best possible evidence. And meanwhile, let's also get the simple message straight: It's "Eat Real Food."
【答案解析】解析:此处考查的是“祈使句+and+陈述句”句型,侧重点是连接词。在该句型中,前一分句表示一种条件或假设,相当于if条件状语从句,后一分句表示一种结果或推论。空格处所在的句子符合该句型,此句可变化为:If you eat real food,your fat intake will probably be fine,故C.and为正确答案。so“因此,所以”表示因果;or“或者,否则,要不然”表示并列或选择;if“如果”表示条件,三项均不符合题意,故排除。
【答案解析】解析:根据句意“因为它们是添加糖,______天然的糖"可知,此空应填入表达“不同、有异于”等含义的词。opposed“相反的,相对的",构成搭配as opposed to“与……相对”,符合题意,故C.opposed为正确答案。其他三项常用的搭配分别是:be similar to“与……相似”,be averse to sth.“不喜欢某事/物”,be objected to (doing)sth.“反对做某事”,均不能准确表达文意,故排除。
