答案與題解：
1. D 第二段第二句及第三句說到，降低患病危險性的作用應(yīng)該歸功于果汁和全果均含有的纖維和抗氧化劑。其它A、B、C三個選項文章均未提及。
2. C 第三段第二句說到，在與慢性病的發(fā)生的關(guān)系方面，認為果汁不如全果有營養(yǎng)的觀點是“unjustified”（不正當），也就是“不正確”( incorrect )。
3. B 第四段第二句說到，果汁在降低患各種疾病中的確起著重要作用，尤其是癌癥和心血管疾病。這里 in particular正是especially的意思。
4. A 第四段最后一句說到，飲用果汁也與降低患阿爾茨海默病的危險性有關(guān)。
5. B 第五段第一句說到，每周喝3-4份果汁的人與每周只喝一次以下的人相比，其患阿爾茨海默病的危險性下降了76%，76%就是3/4，因此B項是正確答案。A項是高出23%，c項是基本不喝的人的123%，D項是基本不喝的人的176%，均不正確。
