试题分析：本文叙述了美国人的饮食变化，他们越来越重视食物的营养价值和对健康的影响，他们去超市买东西要仔细看一下标签，他们愿意买不含化学物质的食品，有的人还愿意品尝外国的大餐。
小题1:因为空格前面有冠词，后有名词所以判断这里该用形容词，句意：一个是日益增长的有营养价值的食品的意识；根据an increasing interest 也可判断与increasing同一的词，所以用growing，故选E。
小题2:根据Also more and more Americans have become interested in food from other countries. 来自国外的食品所以用international，故选H。
小题3:这是固定短语be concernedabout关心；美国人越来越关心健康，故选C。
小题4:根据the package over to read the labels carefully.这里是turn over翻过来，他们要翻过来仔细地看一下标签，故选A。
小题5:这里是定语从句，先行词是food，关系词在从句中作主语，food与动词之间是被动关系，这里必须用谓语动词的过去分词，所以只有F、J和G，根据句意应该是食物被生产出来，故选G。
小题6:另外一组美国人被称为素食者，已经决定不吃肉，这里Americans与call之间是被动关系，这里是过去分词短语作定语，故选J。
小题7:他们出去到国际的餐馆迫切想尝吃一下不熟悉的菜，根据句意故选B。
小题8:在美国，日本、法国、意大利、希腊和许多其他国家的食谱都是受欢迎的，根据句意故选I。
