问题     How to eat healthfully can be especially complex for working women who often have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves. Registered dietitian(营养学家)Barbara Morrissey suggests that a few simple rules can help.
    "Go for nutrient-dense foods, " she suggests, "foods that contain a multiple of nutrients. For example, select whole wheat bread as a breakfast food, rather than coffee cake. Or drink orange juice rather than orange drink, which contains only a small percentage of real juice— the rest is largely colored sugar water. You just can’t compare the value of these foods, the nutrient-dense ones are so superior, " she emphasizes.
    Morrissey believes that variety is not only the spice of life—it’s the foundation of a healthful diet. Diets which are based on only one or two foods are not only virtually impossible to sustain, they can be very harmful, she says, because nutrients aren’t supplied in sufficient amounts or balance.
    According to Morrissey, trying to find a diet that will cure your illnesses, or make you superwoman is a fruitless search. As women, many of us are too concerned with staying thin, she says, and we believe that vitamins are some kind of magic cure to replace food.
    "We need carbohydrates, protein and fat—they are like the wood in the fireplace. The vitamins and minerals are the match, the spark, for the fuel, " she explains. "We need them all, but in very different proportions. And if the fuel isn’t there, the spark is useless. "
In paragraph 4, "a fruitless search" means______.
选项 A、an effort with no results
B、a search for a diet without fruits
C、a research on fruitless diets
D、a diet serving as medicine
答案A
解析 注意fruitless是一个双关语，其一意为“没有成果”；其二意为“不含水果”。关键要看后面所修饰的名词。本题后面的名词为search(寻求)，所以只能理解为“没有结果的寻求”。
