【解析】

试题分析：

1.根据本文第二句He wants to lose some weight .可知亨利想减轻重量，那么很显然他不想变胖，他想变得更瘦，thinner表示更瘦的意思，故本题选B。

2.本文的第二行he eats very little sugar because it will make him fat.意思为他吃很少的糖，因为糖会使他发胖，倒数第二行有句She doesn’t eat much meat.意思为她不吃许多肉，文中提到亨利的妹妹苏姗瘦的原因之一是不吃许多肉，所以说糖和肉会使人发胖，故本题选B。

3.本文的第四行有两句Henry’s sister,Susan, is healthier than Henry.She is also younger and thinner than he is.意思为苏姗比亨利更健康，更年轻，更瘦，故本题选D。

考点：本文是一篇通过亨利和苏姗这两个人来谈论瘦和健康的说明文。
