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【C11】________. For example, many collegiate and professional football players【C12】________as obese, though their percentage body fat is low. Conversely, someone with a small frame may have high body fat but a【C13】________BMI.
Today we have an【C14】________to label obesity as a disgrace. The overweight are sometimes【C15】________in the media with their faces covered. Stereotypes【C16】________with obesity include laziness, lack of will power, and lower prospects for success. Teachers, employers, and health professionals have been shown to harbor biases against the obese.【C17】________very young children tend to look down on the overweight, and teasing about body build has long been a problem in schools.
Negative attitudes toward obesity,【C18】________in health concerns, have stimulated a number of anti-obesity【C19】________. My own hospital system has banned sugary drinks from its facilities. Many employers have instituted weight loss and fitness initiatives. Michelle Obama has launched a high-visibility campaign【C20】________childhood obesity, even claiming that it represents our greatest national security threat.
【C13】
选项
A、strange
B、changeable
C、normal
D、constant
答案
C
解析
本题考查形容词并且本形容词处于一个对称的结构中:根据对应性分析,本填空的形容词与已知的形容词high形成对应,两词之间的逻辑关系为转折(but),很容易判定本填空的形容词是high的对立面。对比四个选项,可以直接排除A项strange(奇怪的)、B项changeable(易变的,可变的)和D项constant(持续的),因为这三个选项与high根本没有关系。最佳选项是C项normal(正常的),因为本形容词的被修饰成分是BMI指数,“正常的指数”意味着是“不高的指数”,符合对称性关系。
