61．causes/will cause 考查动词时态．动名词Skipping breakfast作主语，谓语动词用单数形式，且表示的是一般事实，用一般现在时或一般将来时．
62．Studies 考查名词复数．根据句中谓语动词have showed是复数形式，主语要用复数形式studies．
63．regularly 考查副词．eat是动词，用副词修饰，形容词regular的副词是regularly．
64．at 考查介词．at a risk of意为"冒…风险"，是固定搭配．
65．worse 考查比较级．根据上下文，指贫困地区的人和一般的人相比，用形容词比较级，bad的比较级是worse．
66．eating 考查动名词．be used to意为"习惯…"，to是介词，后接动词时用动名词形式．
67．and 考查连词．前后两个单句表示递进关系，用连词and．
68．when 考查固定句型．when it comes to sth．意为"当谈论/提到…时"，是固定句型．
69．aged 考查过去分词．people与age之间是动宾关系，用过去分词短语aged above 60 作定语修饰people．
70．patience 考查名词．and是并列连词，它前后连接两个相同的语法成分，time和patience都是名词作have的宾语，形容词patient的名词是patience．
