    In one study from rural Kenya,【C1】______found that children who ate【C2】______ounces of meat every day, along with their lunch of corn and beans,【C3】______better in problem-solving tests【C4】______children given supplements of milk or vegetable oil.

    Dr. Howarth Bouis of the International Food Policy Research Institute in Washington D. C, told Reuters Health that research【C8】______children who don’t get enough iron, zinc and other【C9】______have a weakened immune system,【C10】______growth and cognitive impairments. And when entire generations of children aren’t getting enough nutrients,【C11】______can have implications nationwide, Bouis added.【C12】______, the World Bank estimates that micronutrient deficiencies【C13】______South Asia 5 percent of its GDP each year, he said.

选项 A、in
B、to
C、by
D、for
答案 D
解析 主要是考查need作名词“需要，需求，必需品”讲时常用的搭配。分析四个选项可知[C]by不与need搭配，首先排除；[A]in与need的搭配应为be in need of“缺乏，需要”，如不加of则表示贫困；[B]to与need搭配时常用于句型There is no need to do sth．“没有必要做…”，因此[A]in与[B]to放在此处结构都不对；[D]for与need的搭配为a need／needs for sth．“对…的需要”，符合句子结构及意义，为答案。
