问题     Many people in the United States are concerned about the foods they eat every day. They now know that what they eat every day affects their health, but they also wonder about some studies that show people in France have 40% less heart disease than Americans. A recent study, however, shows that the food French people eat now does not help them live longer. Researchers say the reason for their longer life is because of the food they ate in the past. Books and movies about the French people show them eating fatty foods and drinking a lot of wine, but in past years the French rarely ate red meat. Even when they had money to buy meat, they used only a small amount to add the taste to soups and other food. Today however, the French eat much of the same foods Americans eat.
    A doctor of New York University says the French continue to live longer because of what they have not been eating. She says that their high fat foods are too new to have an effect on their death rate. In 1961, 21% of the calories(卡路里)in the food French people ate came from fats. In 1988, 39% of the calories came from fats. Americans however were getting 39% of their calories from fats in 1923. So for many years Americans have eaten higher amounts of fats which are known to cause heart disease.
    In the past some French experts claimed their good health and long life was caused by the red wine they drank. They said the wine helped them to have the second lowest rate of heart disease among people living in industrial countries. Doctors, say a small amount of alcohol each day can help protect against heart disease, but they do not propose that people begin drinking alcohol for this reason.
Drinking______ is of benefit to people.
选项 A、much
B、little
C、no wine
D、a little
答案D
解析 文章最后一句话指出：每天摄入少量的酒精可以帮助预防心脏病。因此可见D项是正确答案：摄取少量的酒是对人们有益的。
