The following question appeared in my conprehension test, I chose C but the given answer was A. Could you please help explain which is the right answer?
Question: Many people can’t help putting on weight after the holidays because they ______.
A. can’t control themselves B. go to too many parties
C. enjoy delicious foods D. can’t help turning away from the foods
The reading passage is below:
Do you love the holidays, but hate the increase in weight that follows? You are not alone.
Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods. But many people are worried about the weight that comes with these delicious foods.
With proper (合适的) planning, it is possible to control your weight. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don’t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy. The following advice may be of some help to you.
Do not miss meals. Before you leave home for a party, have a small, low-fat meal or fast food. This may help you to keep you from getting too excited before the delicious foods.
Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables. A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full. Use a small plate; a large plate may make you eat more than enough.
