问题                 Free Statins With Fast Food Could Neutralize Heart Risk
    Fast food outlets could provide statin drugs free of【C1】______so that customers can reduce the heart disease dangers of fatty food, researchers at Imperial College London 【C2】______in a new study.
    Statins reduce the【C3】______of unhealthy "LDL" cholesterol in the blood. A wealth of trial data has proven them to be highly effective at【C4】______a person’s heart attack risk.
    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【C5】______to offset the increase in heart attack risk from 【C6】______a cheeseburger and drinking a milkshake.
    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 all of the【C7】______effects of cheeseburgers and French fries. It’s better to avoid fatty food altogether. But we’ve worked out that in terms of your【C8】______of having a heart attack, taking a statin can reduce your risk to more or less the same【C9】______as a fast food meal increases it. "
    "It’s ironic that people are free to take as many unhealthy condiments in fast food outlets as they【C10】______, but statins, which are beneficial to heart health, have to be prescribed. It 【C11】______sense to make risk-reducing stains available just as easily as the unhealthy condiments that are provided free of charge. It would cost less than 5 pence per【C12】______—not much different to a sachet of sugar, "Dr. Francis said.
    When people engage in risky behaviours like driving or smoking, they’re encouraged to take 【C13】______that lower their risk, like【C14】______a seatbelt or choosing cigarettes with filters. Taking a statin is a rational way of【C15】______some of the risks of eating a fatty meal.
【C5】
选项 A、severe
B、enough
C、weak
D、active
答案B
解析 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。
