Just when you had figured out how to manage fat in your diet, researchers are now warning against another common mealtime pitfall(陷阱)—salt.
A study by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco(UCSF), Stanford University and Columbia University shows that even a【C1】______decrease in daily salt intake(摄入)can lead to dramatic health benefits. The authors【C2】______an annual drop of as many as 120,000 cases of heart disease, 66,000【C3】______of stroke and 99,000 heart attacks【C4】______by high blood pressure after a 3-g-per-day reduction in salt.
The advantages, not surprisingly, were greater for African Americans, who are more likely to 【C5】______high blood pressure than other ethnic groups, and for the elderly, since blood vessels stiffen with age, which can lead to higher blood pressure.
"Everyone in the U. S. is consuming salt far in【C6】______of what is good for them,"says lead author Dr. Kirsten Bibbins Domingo of UCSF. " What we are suggesting is that a population wide effort to reduce salt intake, even【C7】______, will have health benefits. "
The team conducted a computer-based analysis to determine the【C8】______of a 3-g-per-day reduction in salt intake on rates of heart disease and death. They also calculated the cost savings emerging from the amount of disease that would be【C9】______because of lower blood pressure.
The conclusion: by cutting salt intake nationwide, the U. S. could save $ 10 billion to $ 24 billion【C10】______in health care costs.

[M]revised[N]slightly
[O]undertake
【C1】
选项
答案
L
解析
该处需填入形容词,修饰后面的名词decrease。意思为:即便将日常食盐的摄人量进行适量的减少都可带来极大的健康益处,形容词considerable显然不符合句意,因此填入形容词modest。
