Obesity (肥胖) has become an epidemic. Not only does Obesity have more【C1】______ health consequences than smoking, drinking, or poverty, it also affects more people【C2】______ 23 percent of Americans are obese. An additional 36 percent are overweight. By contrast, only 6 percent are heavy drinkers, 19 percent are daily smokers, and 14 percent live in poverty.
Obesity rates are increasing dramatically. These rates used to be fairly【C3】______ : Between 1960 and 1980, there was only a minor increase in the number of Americans who were overweight or obese.

选项
答案
K
解析
第三段谈到了美国肥胖比率的急剧上升,所以用growth“增长”。另外,从搭配的角度考虑,growth rate是一个固定搭配,表示“增长率”,因此选K)。干扰项I)reduction“减少”,虽然也是名词形式,但是文中谈到的是美国肥胖比率的上升而不是减少,与文章意思不符。
