（7）考查名词。结果我们经常吃相当多的食物﹣﹣﹣﹣超过了我们的需求。根据语境和首字母，可知句子意思是"结果我们经常吃相当多的食物﹣﹣﹣﹣超过了我们的需求。"因此是result在句子中作主语，故填result。
（8）考查副词。但是当我们选择食材，像蔬菜、鱼和肉，然后烹饪，我们更谨慎地考虑我们应该吃什么。根据汉语提示和语境，可知句子意思是"但是当我们选择食材，像蔬菜、鱼和肉，然后烹饪，我们更谨慎地考虑我们应该吃什么。"用副词修饰think about，carefully比较级在前加more，故填carefully。
（9）考查副词。当我们考虑食材时，我们将几乎不吃不健康的东西。根据语境"And when we think about the ingredients，we will （9）____ ever eat unhealthily."（当我们考虑食材时，我们将（9）____吃不健康的东西。），可知前文建议选择食材时注意健康，因此是不吃不健康的食物，双重否定表示肯定，因此用副词hardly，故填hardly。
（10）考查副词。因此或许我们的一些健康问题的解决方案并不是"少吃"——是"做得多"!根据汉语提示和语境" So （10）____（可能）the solution（解决方法）to some of our health problems is not to"eat less"﹣﹣﹣﹣it's to"cook more"！"（所以（10）____我们的一些健康问题的解决方案并不是"少吃"——是"做得多"!） 可知，用副词maybe放在句首作状语，故填maybe。
