Answer 1

分析 本文主要講述了美國人的飲食以及他們對健康的重視．

解答 41．D空格處缺少賓語．根據(jù)句意，人們逐漸意識到計(jì)算卡路里的價值（來獲得健康體魄），介詞后接動名詞作賓語，counting 符合文意，故正確答案為D．
42．H本題考查形容詞．結(jié)合題意，"他們關(guān)心外帶食品中的食品安全問題．"package 動詞的過去分詞形式可做形容詞 packaged，表示"外帶的，外賣的"，故正確答案為 H．
43．A本題考查上下文理解能力．結(jié)合語境，Many American consumers read   43   carefully for nutrition information 表示"美國人閱讀食物上的營養(yǎng)信息"．營養(yǎng)信息只可能出現(xiàn)在標(biāo)簽上，即 label，故正確答案為 label．

47．I本題考查動詞．"only 37 percent   47   three times per week"表示"只有37%的人每周鍛煉三次"，動詞只能選 exercise，故正確答案為I．
48．B本題考查形容詞．"As a result，the   48   American gained eight pounds"表示"美國人增重了8英鎊"，應(yīng)該是平均狀態(tài)下，只有 average 符合此意，故正確答案為B．
49．K本題考查名詞．"Still，by many   49  ，Americans enjoy good health．"表示"美國人從很多標(biāo)準(zhǔn)來看仍有健康的體魄"，符合此意的只有 standard，又前面形容詞為 many，所以要用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故正確答案為K．
50．C本題考查動詞．"The U．S．Government   50   strict food inspections"表示"美國政府要求嚴(yán)格的食品監(jiān)督"，表示"要求，強(qiáng)制"的應(yīng)該是 require，又主語為第三人稱單數(shù)，故正確答案為C．
