【解答】答案：A 联系汉语意思，根据The doctor told me not to eat too much可知，医生建议少吃，所以下文建议应是你吃的越少，你就越健康，这是越…就越…的用法，其用法是the+比较级，the+比较级．又知the less，the healthier意为越少，越健康，less后接不可数名词；the less，the more healthier用法有误，more不能接比较级；the more，the healthier意为越多…，越健康；the more，the more healthier用法有误，比较级后不能修饰比较级．所以此处应用the less，the healthier．
故选：A．

20．（1分）﹣The doctor told me not to eat too much，but I find it difficult．
﹣The doctor is right． you eat， you will be．（ ）
A．The less；the healthier
B．The less；the more healthier
C．The more；the healthier
D．The more；the more healthier
【分析】﹣﹣医生告诉我不要吃太多，但我发现很难．
﹣﹣医生是正确的．你吃的越少，你就会越健康．
【解答】答案：A 联系汉语意思，根据The doctor told me not to eat too much可知，医生建议少吃，所以下文建议应是你吃的越少，你就越健康，这是越…就越…的用法，其用法是the+比较级，the+比较级．又知the less，the healthier意为越少，越健康，less后接不可数名词；the less，the more healthier用法有误，more不能接比较级；the more，the healthier意为越多…，越健康；the more，the more healthier用法有误，比较级后不能修饰比较级．所以此处应用the less，the healthier．
故选：A．

（10）explain.考查动词。根据后面提到的Because Hurricane Sandy blew away the smells of home.（因为飓风桑迪吹走了家的气味），结合首字母，可知是explain"解释"，因为飓风桑迪吹走了家的气味，他们不能解释Vivien是如何找到回家的路的，情态动词can后跟动词原形。句意：但这不能解释Vivien是如何找到回家的路的。故填：explain。
