问题 Brushing and flossing can surely keep your teeth and gums healthy.
Young people are more likely to have tooth decay while older people are at a greater risk for ______.

选项

答案root caries

解析 定位到文章中More Dental Problems标题下的第二句:Children are the most cavity prone,but adults of all ages can be affected,too.In fact,two out of three cavities in people over 50 are a result of  decay around existing fillings,and most people over 60 have root caries as a result of gum diseases.(儿童最容易长蛀牙洞,但是任何年龄的成年人也不例外。事实上,在五十岁以上的人中,三个蛀牙洞中有两个是在已经填补过的牙洞周围腐蚀的,而且大多数60岁以上的人由于牙龈疾病而容易患牙根蛀牙。)题干中的more likely to是对原文中prone的解释。题干是对原文意思的概括。
