Answer:

Thousands of kilocalories.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to an article made by The Telegraph, the average person in Britain consume a 50% more that the needed.

The statistics shown by experts is:

  • The average man ingests around 3,119.
  • The average woman ingests around 2,393.

Moreover, if we analyse this question carefully, we can deduct that the most reasonable option is d. thousands, because it already says "kilocalories", so a normal and possible consumption is thousands of kilocalories, other options are just too much.

"Thousands" of kilocalories of energy would a person in contemporary England can be expected to consume daily (including food, transportation, household use, etc.). The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the fourth option or option "D". I hope it helps you.
