问题     In April, British researchers at University College London found that, rather than the recommended five, seven daily portions of fresh fruit and vegetables were the key to health. They【C1】________that seven daily portions of fresh fruit and vegetables or more could reduce the risk of cancer by 25 percent and of heart disease by 31 percent,【C2】________to people who consumed less than one portion a day. The study was【C3】________the eating habits of more than 65,000 people in England【C4】________2001 and 2008.
    But a new study into the field of【C5】________eating says the famous five-a-day recommendation made by the UN’s World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2003 should be fine.
    Researchers in China and the United States went through 16 published investigations into diet and health【C6】________more than 830,000 participants, who were【C7】________for periods ranging from four and a half years to 26 years. Every additional daily serving of fruit and vegetables reduced the【C8】________risk of premature death from all【C9】________by five percent, the scientists found.【C10】________the period of the studies, 56,000 of the participants died, researchers said. In the case of death from a heart attack or a stroke, each additional serving【C11】________risk by four percent.
    【C12】________there was no evidence of an additional fall in risk beyond five portions, according to the【C13】________ published online Tuesday by the British Medical Journal (BMJ). "We found a threshold of around five servings a day of fruit and vegetables, after which the risk of death did not reduce【C14】________," said the investigators, led by Frank Hu of the Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts. High consumption of fruit and vegetable did not translate into a【C15】________reduction in the risk of death from cancer, the study also found.【C16】________advising patients about the【C17】________of healthy eating, doctors should also push home the message about risks from obesity, inactivity, smoking and【C18】________ drinking, said the paper.

选项 A、virtues
B、loyalties
C、bonuses
D、traps

答案A

解析 空格后的介词短语of healthy eating(健康饮食的)修饰空格处的词,从前面的论述“每日吃蔬果可以减少过早死亡的风险”可知,健康饮食有好处,故选A项virtues“优点”。B项loyalties“忠诚”,后要接介词to。C项bonuses“额外的好处”,此处指出健康饮食所带来的结果,并非为意外收到的效果。D项traps“圈套”,是贬义词,从of healthy eating可知,所填入的词应为褒义。故排除。
