Forget fit, tanned and sporty—the new generation of
Australians is fast becoming fat, pale and lazy. A love of junk food,
television and computer games has sent the country’s waistline
ballooning, with Australians weighing in as the world’ s fattest【M1】______
nation after the United States. Rather than hitting the beaches,
thousands of young Australians are heading to the couch with a【M2】______
bag of popcorn, with one child in every four classifying as【M3】______
overweight or obese. The trend is squashing the widely-held
imagery of Australians being sun-bronzed and superfit. " The rate【M4】______
of obesity, particularly among children, seems to be going up
faster in Australia than anywhere else in the world, and we don’t【M5】______
know why," said Dr Peter Williams, the president of the Dietitians【M6】______
Association of Australia.
A sedentary lifestyle and a changing diet has doubled the
number of obese Australians and treble the army of fat children in【M7】______
the past decade, pushing direct health costs related to childhood
obesity to about $380 million a year. Data shows childhood
obesity in Australia is rising at the rate of one percent a year, a
trend suggests half of all young Australians will be overweight by【M8】______
2025. Australia’s rapid weight gained has health agencies and state【M9】______
governments racing to find ways to encourage people to get on
their feet and shed some kilometers—while sending the【M10】______
weight-loss industry skipping to the bank, pocketing $1 billion a
year.
【M10】
选项
答案
kilometers一kilograms
解析
词汇错误。kilometer表示“公里,千米”,是距离单位,而kilogram表示“公斤,千克”,是重量单位。全文讨论的是澳大利亚人肥胖问题,所以此处相对应的应该是减轻体重,这里用kilogram指代体重。
