Experts say about 1% of young women in the United States are almost starving themselves today. They are suffering from a sickness called anorexia.
These young women have an abnormal fear of getting fat. They【C1】______starve themselves so they weigh at 15% less than their normal weight.
The National Institute of Mental Health says one【C2】______ten cases of anorexia leads to serious medical problems. These patients can die from heart failure or the disease can lead young women to【C3】______themselves. For example, former gymnast Christy Henrich died at age 22. She weighed only 61 pounds.
A person with anorexia first develops joint and muscle problems. There is a lack of iron in the blood.【C4】______the sickness progresses, a young woman’s breathing, heartbeat, and blood pressure rates slow down. The important substance calcium is【C5】______from the bones, something causing bones to break. Sometimes the brain gets smaller, causing changes in【C6】______a person thinks and acts. Scientists say many patients have further mental and emotional problems. They have【C7】______opinions about themselves. They feel helpless. Their attempts to become extremely thin may【C8】______efforts to take control of their lives. They may become dependent on illegal drugs. Some people also feel the need to continually repeat a(n) 【C9】______. For example, they may repeatedly wash their hands although their hands are clean.
Anorexia is a serious eating【C10】______. If it is not treated on time, it can be fatal.
【C3】
选项
A、kill
B、starve
C、abuse
D、worsen
答案
A
解析
本句句意:“这些病人会死于心力衰竭或者说这种病会导致年轻女性——她们自己”。后面举的例子就是致死的例子。虽然自杀并不是这些女孩儿减肥的目标,她们的目标是尽可能的瘦下去;但是厌食会导致精神抑郁,这种病可以导致自杀的发生。这一点从日常的官方报道可以了解。从另一个角度看,B选项是“饿,饿死”之意,前面已经说过这些年轻女性故意饿着自己,但故意饿死自己肯定不是目的。所以,“饿”是厌食症的原因,而非结果。这里需要的是结果(serious medical problems),故选A更恰当。
