Small doses of antibiotics (抗生素)-too small to kill bacteria—are【C1】______to factory farm animals as part of their【C2】______diet to promote growth and cancel the risks of overcrowding.

For years, the F. D. A. has had the scientific studies and the【C6】______to ban these drugs.

It is time for the F. D. A. to stop corporate factory farms from wasting【C9】______drugs just to promote growth among animals confined in conditions that inherently create the risk of disease. The F.

答案
F
