A．Healthy way of life giving way to overuse of medicine B．Different findings as to taking additional vitamin C．EU's response to overuse of health products D．Worrying increase in multivitamin advertising E．EU directive for the benefit of individuals F．EU directive against prediction in novels

76．C．
The use of health supplements such as multivitamin tablets has increased greatly in the western world．People take these supplements because advertising suggests that they prevent a range of medical conditions from developing．However，there is concern that people are consuming worryingly high doses of these supplements and the European Union （EU） has issued a directive that will ban the sale of a wide range of them．This EU directive should be supported．
77．B
Research suggests that people who take Vitamin C supplements of over 5000milligrams a day are more likely to develop cancer．This shows how much damage these health supplements do to people's health．A spokesman for the health supplement industry has argued that other research shows that Vitamin C supplements help prevent heart disease，but we can dismiss this evidence as it is from a biased source．
78．F
Science fiction of the 1960s and 1970s predicted that pills would replace meals as the way in which people would get the fuel they needed．This，it was argued，would mean a more efficient use of time as people wouldn't have to waste it preparing or eating meals．The EU directive would help prevent this nightmare of pills replacing food becoming a reality．
79．A
Peop0le already take too many pills instead of adopting a healthier lifestyle．For example，the consumption of painkillers in Britain in 1998was 21tablets per year for every man，woman and child in the country．People do not need all these pills．
80．E
Some might argue that the EU directive denies people's right to freedom of choice．However，there are many legal examples for such intervention when it is in the individual's best interests．We now make people wear seatbelts rather than allowing them to choose to do so．Opposing the EU directive would mean beneficial measures like this would be threatened．Section D．

Answer 1

分析 文章大意：文章講述的是針對人們服用過多的維生素等藥物，歐盟出臺了一項指令，為了糾正和防止藥物的過渡使用所產生的問題．

解答 76．C．根據第一段的內容可知，該段的主要觀點是however，之后的內容，前面是提出一個現象，為了引出問題，however之后是文章主要討論的話題，即there is concern that people are consuming worryingly high doses of these supplements and the European Union （EU） has issued a directive that will ban the sale of a wide range of them，擔心人們錯誤地消費了高劑量的補品，因此EU對此作出了反應，出臺了一項指令，將會禁止補品的廣泛使用．即C項，UE對過度使用健康產品的反應．
77．B  根據第二段的Research suggests that people who take Vitamin C supplements of over 5000 milligrams a day are more likely to develop cancer．和A spokesman for the health supplement industry has argued that other research shows that Vitamin C supplements help prevent heart disease可知，該段主要講述了兩種截然相反的，關于是否要服用額外的維生素C的觀點，因此選擇B項，講的是關于服用額外維生素的不同發現．
78．F  根據該段的The EU directive would help prevent this nightmare of pills replacing food becoming a reality可知，歐盟的指令將會阻止這種用藥片來代替食物的噩夢成為現實，即F項．
79．A：根據該段的Peop0le already take too many pills instead of adopting a healthier lifestyle可知，人們已經服用了太多的藥片了，故選擇A項．
80．E 根據最后一段的However，there are many legal examples for such intervention when it is in the individual's best interests…Opposing the EU directive would mean beneficial measures like this would be threatened可知，歐盟的這項指令目的是為了公眾的最大利益，即選擇E．
