【答案与解析】答案D。细节信息题。根据第1段的“Zantrex-3isalsosoldatCVS,RiteAid,Wal-Mart,andotherchains,”以及第2段的“…
sodothepeoplewhosellStacker2andAnorexalongwiththosewhosellCarbEliminatorand FatEliminator.”可以知道D选项是正确答案。

B.youcan’toverstatethesuccessofZantrex-3
C.youcan’tthinktoohighlyofthesuccessofZantrex-3
D.Zantrex-3isnotverysuccessful
【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。
