    Details were presented at a meeting of the International Association for Dental Research. A total of 24 volunteers who【C2】________in the study were given strict instructions on oral hygiene, diet and medication intake. They spent two weeks【C3】________ yoghurts and similar foods, like cheese. Researchers then【C4】________bacteria levels and odour-causing compounds, including hydrogen sulphide.

选项
答案E
解析 空格处需填入动词作从句谓语，因主句为过去时，所以需要填入动词过去式。第2段最后一句提到8096受试者喝了酸奶后口腔内的硫化氢降低了(decreased)，据此可知喝酸奶会降低硫化氢的含量，词库中动词reduced“降低”与decreased意思相近，符合语义。
