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. Since 1980, however, not only has the percentage increased, but much of the increase is【C4】______ in the "obese" category, which grew by 60 percent between 1991 and 2000. Because this increase is relatively 【C5】______ , its full impact is not known. Some【C6】______ conditions take years to develop. Current research may, if anything, understate the public health consequences of obesity.

A) concentrated I) reduction
B) recent J) approximately
C) satisfactorily K) growth
D) lifestyle L) threat
E) negative M) quick
F) divided N) discourage
G) chronic O) stable
H) enhance [br] 【C9】
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。
