    The growing interest of【C4】______in the safety and nutritional quality of the typical North American diet is a welcome development.【C5】______, much of this interest has been sparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although most of these【C6】______are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance (优势) of written material【C7】______such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from【C8】______. As a result, claims that eating a diet【C9】______entirely of organically grown foods prevents or【C10】______disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely【C11】______and form the basis for folklore. Almost daily the public is【C12】______by claims for "no-aging" diets, new vitamins and other【C13】______foods.

选项 A、conventional
B、traditional
C、formal
D、normal

答案 A

解析 语义衔接题。空格前的such foods指的正是文章首句中提到的organically grown foods,本句是对两类食品的比较,所以所填词与organic形成语义上的反义复现关系,与organic goods相对应的应该是常规食品,选项A)conventional除了有“传统的,习惯的”的意思,还有“常规的,普通平凡的”的含义,这里选"conventional”取其第二层意思即传统食物,与有机食物相对应.选项B)traditional“传统的,惯例的”与“conventional”的第一层意思一样;选项C)formal"正式的",指以适当或常规形式进行的;选项D)normal"正常的,正规的,标准的"。所以答案是A)。
