Meats【C10】______the largest difference: healthier options cost an average of 29 cents per serving more than unhealthy options. 【C11】______this, comparisons of whole diets showed that healthier diets cost averagely $1.48 more per day. This shows that comparisons based on single ingredients don't tell the full【C12】______. "It tells us that,【C13】______, it doesn't cost more to eat healthier based on one nutrient," says Rao. "But there's growing evidence that the【C14】______of foods in your diet【C15】______your disease risk more than any single nutrient, so we think our【C16】______finding that healthier diets cost about $1.50 more has the most public health【C17】______."

【答案解析】解析：上文提到，ingredients/individual items的价格差异小，whole diets的价格差异大，据此可推测单就single ingredients的价格进行比较不能反映出整体的情况，所以此处选D项story，don't tell the full story表示“没有反映全部的情况”。

【C13】
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】解析：第4段第2句提到，即便价格差别最大的食物成分——肉类平均价格也仅相差29美分．即单一食品的平均价格差距很小。空格所在句用It tells us that对前面的比较进行总结，据此可推断该空选择C项on average“平均来说”，与第4段第2句的an average of相呼应。

【正确答案】
A
【答案解析】解析：上文中提到whole diets的价格差异和ingredients／individual items的价格差异，空格所在的这句直接引语用到比较句型，比较的一方是any single nutrient，据此可知比较的另一方应该是whole diets，所以选A项combination“组合”。
【答案解析】解析：上文通过比较健康和不健康的食物成分和饮食的价格差异得出的结论是：健康的饮食和食物更贵。从空格所在句的why特殊疑问句和后面的economies of scale“规模经济”(规模经济的最大优势是降低成本)，可推断该句是进而分析健康的饮食和食物更贵的原因，所以选A项expensive。
