The second blank is an easy place to start, and refers to what happens to risk factors. The clue for the second blank is heart-healthy. The transition phrases heart-healthy and risk factors indicate that the word for the second blank will provide a contrast, so use “lessen” as a word for the second blank. Eliminate (D) and (E)— attack, detach— because they do not match “lessen,” and the correct answer for the second blank is (F), diminish. Now, look at the first blank, which refers to what happens to the risk of lung cancer. The structural agreement between lung cancer and various forms of cancer indicates that clue for the first blank is also heart-healthy, and that the word for the first blank will also provide a contrast, so use “lessen” as a word for the first blank. Choices (A) and (C) can be eliminated, because they do not match “lessen.” The correct answer for the first blank is (B), reduce. The correct answer is (B) and (F).
