【答案与解析】答案C。理解句子结构及推测词义题。从
IthittheU.S.marketlastMarchandhashadasuccessthatwouldbehardtooverstate.的前半部分可以知道Zantrex-3是美国市场很畅销的减肥类商品;根据构词法可以知道后半部分的overstate有“夸张、夸大事实”的意思,而wouldbehardtooverstate可以理解为“难以夸张、夸大”的意思,因此划线部分的意思可以直译为“难以夸大/夸张的成功”或理解为“怎么夸张都不过份的成功”,C选项所含有的句型cannot…too亦是此意。

A.whenBritneySpearswasfoundtakingweight-losspillswithher B.howZantrex-3becamesuccessfulintheUSA C.weight-losspillsareverypopularintheUSA D.Zantrex-3isforbiddentobesoldontheUSmarket
【答案与解析】答案C。A选项只包含了文章的部分信息;B选项侧重Zantrex-3获得成功
的方式,而文章并没有这方面的信息;D选项与文章中的信息相反;从整体来看,文章是以Zantrex-3为引子,引出减肥或瘦身类商品当今在美国很流行的话题,即第1段是引入,第2段开始切入主题,第2段的第2句可以看做是主题句。C选项与主题句的意思一致,因此应该是该题的答案。
