If you have high blood pressure, you’re in good【C1】________Hypertension affects 67 million Americans, including nearly two-thirds of people over age 60. But it isn’t an inevitable part of the aging【C2】________. It’s better to think of it as【C3】________sodium poisoning. And, there’s a way to prevent the problem—and to save many, many lives.
A lifetime of【C4】________too much sodium (mostly in the form of table salt) raises blood pressure, and high blood pressure kills and disables people by【C5】________ strokes and heart attacks. In the United States, according to best estimates,【C6】________sodium is killing between 40,000 and 90,000 people and running up to $20 billion in medical costs a year.
Americans on average【C7】________about 3,300 milligrams of sodium per day, but experts recommend less than 2,300 milligrams—and less than 1,500 milligrams for people over age 50, black people, or those who already have hypertension, diabetes or kidney disease, which【C8】________a majority of American adults. Either【C9】________is far below where most Americans are now.
The reason that nearly everyone eats【C10】________too much sodium is that our food is loaded with it, and often where we don’t【C11】________or expect it. Of course ham and canned soup are full of salt, but so are many foods that are【C12】________: A blueberry cake can have more than double the salt of a serving of potato chips.【C13】________healthy-sounding food can pack【C14】________ sodium loads. Many restaurant main courses have far more sodium than is recommended for an【C15】________day.
Doctors warn people with high blood pressure to go on a low-salt diet, but that’s virtually impossible in today’s world,【C16】________nearly 80 percent of the sodium that Americans eat comes in【C17】________and restaurant food. You can’t take it out. And【C18】________everyone, not just people with hypertension【C19】________over food labels, should be taking in less sodium. The only way to prevent millions of Americans from developing high blood pressure is for companies and restaurants to stop loading up their food with sodium. It’s not easy,【C20】________it isn’t impossible either.
【C3】
选项
A、unexpected
B、chronic
C、sudden
D、slow
答案
B
解析
本句指出应把高血压看作是钠中毒(sodium poisoning)。根据常识可知,我们几乎每天都会摄入钠,这是一个长期的过程,体内积累的钠即便超标也是逐渐增加的。另外,第二段出现的A lifetime of…too much sodium也可以判断出,高血压是长期的、日积月累的钠摄入过量造成的,所以B项chronic“慢性的,长期的”符合。空格前的内容是think of it as(把它看作),“把这看作是意想不到的(A项unexpected)钠中毒”这样表达逻辑不对。C项sudden“突然的”,人们每天都会摄入钠,不是突然的钠中毒。D项slow “慢的”,只表达出速度,没体现钠中毒这个日积月累的过程。
