问题     Sodium (钠) is a key component of salt. Eating too much of it can【C1】______to high blood pressure, a major risk for most people【C2】______they age because it can lead to heart disease and other health problems. But cutting sodium【C3】______the diet is difficult, mainly because people often don’t know it’s there. More than three-quarters of the sodium people【C4】______comes from processed and restaurant foods. And much of the sodium we eat is in foods that don’t【C5】______taste salty, like packaged bread and chicken dishes. Salt is the latest【C6】______in the battle to get Americans to eat a healthier diet.【C7】______efforts have focused on cutting down on sugar, to【C8】______obesity, and reducing fat, for a healthier heart. After four decades of unsuccessfully【C9】______Americans to cut salt in their diets only to see them eat more of it, government officials are【C10】______their efforts. An advisory committee working on new US Dietary Guidelines.【C11】______to be released later this year by the federal government, recently recommended that all adults restrict their【C12】______of sodium to no more than 1 500 milligrams a day, 【C13】______to about two-thirds of a teaspoon of table salt, down from a current limit of 2 300 mgs for some people.
    The best way to reduce salt is to cut back on【C14】______and restaurant foods, eat fresh produce, and reduce portion sizes. Nutritionists【C15】______eating whole grain instead of bread—a single slice of packaged bread can【C16】______150 mgs to 200 mgs or more of sodium. Cut back【C17】______, so your palate (味觉 ) adjusts to a less salty taste. When you do buy artifactitious (人工制品的) foods, look for【C18】______with less than 300 mgs of sodium per serving, or no more than one milligram of sodium per calorie of food, advised the Harvard School of Public Health, 【C19】______has on its website 25 sodium-reduction【C20】______developed with the Culinary Institute of America.
【C9】
选项 A、forcing
B、prohibiting
C、convincing
D、persuading
答案D
解析 动词辨析题。分析句子结构可知，空格处为现在分词作状语，其逻辑主语是government officials。让公众减少盐的摄入量是非政策性的举措，因此政府应该是友好的态度。因此答案为D)persuading“说服”符合文意。A)forcing“强迫”和B)prohibiting“禁止”，态度都过于强硬，公众不容易接受；C)convincing“说服某人相信”，相信的往往是事实或结论，而不是采取行动。
