问题     Including a few bites of meat in the diets of poor children from developing countries improves both their health and their performance in mental tests, according to reports presented at this year’s annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
    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. This small【C5】______of meat gave children all their daily needs【C6】______vitamin B12, 68 percent of all they needed of zinc, and 26 percent of their daily iron【C7】______, the researchers noted.
    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. "When you can’t work【C14】______hard, you can’t think as well. It【C15】______from economic development, " Bouis said.
    He added that children in【C16】______countries don’t get enough nutrients【C17】______they can’t afford them, so it’s up to the government to【C18】______.

选项 A、that
B、which
C、how
D、as
答案 A
解析 空格处所在的句子含有一个由when引导的时间状语从句。when在这里的意思相当于if“如果；要是”。主句是： 41 can have implications nationwide。空格处所填的词应该代表上一个句子所表达的意思“如果整代孩子都得不到足够的营养”，并在句中作主语。分析四个选项：[A]that“那”，指代已提过的事件、行为或时间．可在句中作主语，用于指代先前表达过的词或短语的意思，因此符合要求，是正确选项；[B]which“哪一个”、[C]how“怎么样”以及[D]as“与…一样，当…之时”显然都不符合题意，因此均可排除。
