    The healthcare system’s officials said it began its Strong4Life in early 2011, a large-scale public awareness【S2】______, along with programs and partnerships to【S3】______kids and their parents.

选项
答案 O
解析 该空格位于连词and之后，从结构上推断该空格和名词conversation一起与raise awareness构成平行结构，因此空格处应填入动词原形和raise保持一致。根据句意可知，该运动的第一阶段为警示，旨在引起人们的关注和发动人们讨论儿童肥胖问题，故应选spark，意为“发动，激发”。
