Americans also【S4】_____"looking good" and choose foods that "look good". Some are even willing to spend a lot of money on food that makes them "look good"—as when they eat in【S5】_____restaurants. The characteristics of America’s dominant food culture are cost.convenience, and【S6】_____.

Organic foods were neither cheaper nor more【S9】_____than conventional food, nor were they more convenient to acquire. The early organic consumers were more【S10】_____to be labeled as "counter-cultural" than as "trend setters". Those who chose organic foods obviously were expressing a different food ethic.

H
解析
由空格前面的介词和后面的名词可以断定本处需填形容词。空格所在句句意为“有些人甚至愿意花很多钱买使他们‘有面子’的食物——就像他们在 饭店就餐时那样。”根据句意,expensive“昂贵的,豪华的”意思最为合适。
