 Free Statins With Fast Food Could Neutralize Heart Risk  
; V# a- h; |6 B$ Q' O% b/ C6 P Fast food outlets could provide statin drugs free of 1 so that customers can reduce the heart disease dangers of fatty food, researchers at Imperial College London 2 in a new study.
1 p2 H+ X0 P, ^2 e7 h: E  Statins reduce the 3 of unhealthy "LDL" cholesterol in the blood. A wealth of trial data has proven them to be highly effective at lowering a person’s heart attack 4 . 7 y6 S! P$ I* m$ y7 b
  In a paper published in the American Journal of Cardiology,Dr Darrel Francis and colleagues calculate that the reduction in heart attack risk offered by a statin is 5 to offset the increase in heart attack risk from 6 a cheeseburger and drinking a milkshake.
0 I& ~4 L7 t& Z: E& n0 A' f" R  Dr Francis,from the National Heart and Lung Institute at Imperial College London,who is the senior author of the study, said:"Statins don’t cut out a11 of the 7 effects of cheeseburgers and French fries.It’s better to avoid fatty food altogether.But we’ve worked out that in terms of your 8 of having a heart attack. Taking a statin can reduce your risk to more or less the same 9 as a fast food meal increases it." "It’s ironic that people are free to take as many unhealthv condiments in fast food outlets as they 10 , but statins, which are beneficial to heart health, have to be prescribed. It makes sense to make risk-reducing statins available just as easily as the unhealthy condiments that are l 1 free of charge.It would cost less than 5 pence per 1 2 一not much different to a sachet of sugar." Dr Francis said. ; Y" t' W! B8 M% {
  When people engage in risky behaviours like driving or smoking, they’re encouraged to take 13 that lower their risk, 1ike 14 a seatbelt or choosing cigarettes with filters. Taking a statin is a rational way of 1 5 some of the risks of eating a fatty meal. 2 w+ I/ P$ n- s3 {5 j  _$ k

  答案与题解:
  U" r8 j0 G$ [& _8 V6 d) A  1. B本文介绍说,吃汉堡包等快餐食品容易引发心脏病,而服用statin能降低心脏病发作的风险,一正一负正好抵消。statin 价格便宜,文章建议快餐店像免费供应调味品那样免费供应statin0 free of charge 是固定搭配,意为"免费"。选择charge 是对的。 % i4 A- ~! c' ?3 ~7 h: p
  2. C 本题要选suggest ,因为其他三个选项在意思上都不合适。此外,本句主句的谓语动词用了could (provide) ,委婉地含有"建议"的意思。所以suggest 是个不二的选择。 . x8 g0 D4 M" J$ y. H
  3.B 与降低unhealthy "LDL" cholesterol 搭配的一定是amount(量),而不可能是number(数字)、volume(体积)或product (乘积)。 0 M0 A4 H( l6 w( y
  4.D从上下文判断,要降低(lower)的当然是risk。lower frequency(降低频率)、lower treatment(降低治疗)或lower diagnosis (降低诊断)与上下文的意思都不匹配。
* O4 A. u$ O# P" I1 @  5. B 本句表达的意思是:Dr Darrel Francis 在他的论文中说,经过计算,一粒statin 降低心脏病发作的风险足以抵消吃一个奶酪汉堡包和喝一杯奶昔所增加的患心脏病的风险。所以本题的答案是enough。
/ O2 w" N, o$ t  6. C 顾客不可能在快餐店里preparing cheeseburger 或cooking cheeseburger,而buying cheeseburger不会增加心脏病风险。所以,只有eating cheeseburger 才合乎上下文的意思。 & \6 o2 e9 q4 g
  7.A从上下文判断,被cut out(去除)的effects一定是unhealthy effects,所以,unhealthy是本题的答案。
/ r7 j. d" J2 R0 K9 G' k: E+ U- O  8.D本句中的in terms of 意为"就……而言",要与后半句"一正一负相互抵消"的意思相匹配,所以只能是"就患心脏病的可能性而言"。possibility 是答案。 . o+ @0 \" H& q& F" V& t; W
  9. A本句的意思与第五题的意思相同,即statin降低心脏病发作的风险与快餐增加的心脏病的风险在程度(degree)上大致相当。如果选择其他三个选项,意思变成了,"尺寸(dimension)上、角度(angle)上或范围(range)上大致相当",就说不通了。
0 o% G9 h% i/ C; T! r3 C8 Y  1O.D 填词所在的句子的意思告诉我们,具有讽刺意味的一点是:顾客可以随心所欲地免费享用不健康的调味品。as one likes 是固定用法,意为"随某人所愿,随某人所喜欢"。所以,like 是答案。其余三个选项用在本句中都不合适。 / v3 }* v: Y9 E2 }- E# S
  11.B transported (运输)、preserved (保存)或converted (转换)填人句子中,意思都不顺。只有填入provided (提供)符合句意。provided 是答案。
# P$ ?' Z9 K9 a. {6 J$ f5 @  12.C 到快餐店去就餐的人当然是customer。
4 y) p9 V9 J: v& q  13.A 为了降低开车和吸烟的风险,人们被鼓励要采取一些安全措施。作者借此说明为了降低食用快餐的风险,我们也要采取措施。根据这层意思,选择measures是正确的。take measure的意思是"采取措施"。其他三个选项都不合适:take care是"注意,小心",take advantage 是"利用",take turns 是"轮流,依次"。 ; k6 L  r$ L7 F7 [+ S
  14.B 本题很明显要选wearing,因为上下文的意思是"系上安全带"。buying a seatbelt, cleaning a seatbelt和changing a seatbelt都与上下文的意思相去太远。 % H( g6 t8 F* V2 h% f# F9 ?
  15. C通篇文章都在阐述statin能降低患心脏病的风险。所以,lowering(降低)是答案。
