A third of office workers would rather grab a few minutes【C1】______sleep than breakfast, according to a survey that estimated poor eating habits were costing companies dearly in terms of lost【C2】______.
A survey by Ipsos Mori found 17 percent of British office workers never have breakfast and 17 percent have it just one to three times a week.
It found eight percent of 1,051 office staff questioned also【C3】______skip lunch, with these poor eating habits estimated to be costing companies 17 billion pounds($34 billion)a year or 97 million lost working days.
"Worryingly, of those who【C4】______or never eat lunch, 27 percent also never eat breakfast during the working week," said Ipsos Mori researchers in a statement.
The survey, commissioned by food service company BaxterStorey,【C5】______skipping breakfast cost companies 8.1 billion pounds or 46.5 million lost working days, with many studies finding a link between eating breakfast and attention【C6】______, learning ability and general well-being.
When other poor eating habits such as having no breakfast and lunch or having no breakfast and snacks, are included, lost productivity【C7】______to nearly 17 billion pounds.
The survey found most employees—percent—have lunch, with 68 percent opting for sandwiches, but most people don’t drink enough during the day. Only 11 percent had the【C8】______eight or more drinks during the working day.
"People who eat breakfast have better concentration, problem solving ability, mental performance, memory and mood.
People who eat breakfast are also more【C9】______energetic and have better coordination," said nutrition specialist Matt Barker.
"Research tells us that scores on memory tests were about 15 percent lower in people who skipped breakfast. And those who skip it tend to eat sugary, fatty foods later in the day,【C10】______their productivity."
A)physically B)rarely C)estimated D)target
E)mentally F)recommended G)reducing H)adequate
I)regularly J)extra K)specified L)enhancing
M)productivity N)span O)rocketed
【C7】
选项
答案
O
解析
空前句意为“如果将其他一些不良的饮食习惯也算上,如早餐和午餐都不吃或不吃早餐而吃零食,公司所遭受的损失……”,空后是具体数据:近170亿英镑,与上一段中提到的“81亿英镑”对比,突显出损失额的增加幅度之大。选项中O项rocketed有“快速增加”之意,与介词to搭配,意为“迅速增加到”,符合句意。因此选择rocketed“快速增加”。
