问题     Much of the world should go on a diet in 2014. More than a third of adults【C1】________were estimated to be【C2】________or obese in 2008, according to a report by the Overseas Development Institute (ODI), a think tank in London. That’s a 23 per cent increase on 1980.
    In the last three decades, the number of adults estimated to be obese in the developing world has almost quadrupled to 904 million, overtaking the number in【C3】________countries.
    "The most shocking thing is the degree to which obesity is now【C4】________developing as well as developed economies," says Tim Lobstein of the International Association for the Study of Obesity in London. "The problems【C5】________by overconsumption of fats and【C6】________are now glob-al, not just Western, problems."
    The rise is【C7】________to a "creeping homogenisation" (spreading) of diets across the world, says the report, which says rising【C8】________, advertising and globalisation all play a part.
    It criticizes policy-makers in most countries for being slow or【C9】________to tackle the problem. "We see a big【C10】________in what governments recommend people eat as part of their【C11】________campaigns and what people actually eat," says Sharada Keats. "We need governments to【C12】________the scale of the problem and start putting in place【C13】________steps to tackle it."
    Some countries have【C14】________to go against the grain and【C15】________. For example, South Koreans ate four times more【C16】________in 2008 than they did in 1980. The report【C17】________this to government health drives, which include【C18】________programs on how to【C19】________low-fat meals, showing what governments can do when they【C20】________.  
【C17】
选项 A、shows
B、attributes
C、contributes
D、gives
答案B
解析 空格后的this指“这些走相反方向的国家迅速采取行动处理肥胖问题”。紧接下来的government health drives“政府推广健康饮食的行动”明显是水果食用量增多(即饮食更健康)的原因，故选B项，attribute sth．to sth．意为“把……归功于……”。A项shows“展示”应用show sth．to sth．结构，从用法上可排除。C项contributes“捐赠”和D项gives“给”的后面应跟具体的“物”或“钱”，this并非指“物”或“钱”，可排除。
