问题     Thinner isn’ t always better. A number of studies have【C1】________that normal-weight people are in fact at higher risk of some diseases compared to those who are overweight. And there are health conditions for which being overweight is actually 【C2】________For example,   heavier women are less likely to develop calcium deficiency than thin women.【C3】________among the elderly, being somewhat overweight is often an【C4】________of good health.
    Of even greater【C5】________ is the fact that obesity turns out to be very difficult to define.   It is often defined【C6】________body mass index, or BMI. BMI【C7】________ body mass divided by the square of height. An adult with a BMI of 18 to 25 is often considered to be normal weight. Between 25 and 30 is overweight. And over 30 is considered obese. Obesity,【C8】________, can be divided into moderately obese, severely obese, and very severely obese.
    While such numerical standards seem【C9】________, they are not. Obesity is probably less a matter of weight than body fat. Some people with a high BMI are in fact extremely fit,【C10】________ others with a low BMI may be in poor shape. For example, many collegiate and professional football players qualify as obese, though their percentage body fat is low. Conversely, someone with a small frame may have high body fat but a normal BMI.
【C9】
选项 A、complicated
B、conservative
C、variable
D、straightforward
答案D
解析 本句句意是：相比之下，这样的数字标准看起来________，实际上不是的。complicated意为“复杂的”，conservative意为“保守的”，variable意为“可变的”，straightforward意为“直截了当的”。根据语境可知，这里的数字标准指的就是肥胖指数，肥胖指数分为三类，而且算法并不复杂，straightforward表示直截了当，符合题意，故选D。
