Obviously, much good has e out of these recent developments: there39。s widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every munity has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand more about how the human body works. Yet despite the many health and fitness methods, programs, and resources, the general population has never been so physically sedentary (久坐的)and outofshape. A recent World Health Organization report indicates that life expectancy (壽命)in the U. S. dropped for the first time since 1993. The health of modem people is declining, despite highly advanced medical technologies and the booming health and fitness industry. How could that be? A large part of it is motivation. People are simply not as motivated to move their body and get healthy as they were in the past. We live in a society where the inability to operate one39。s body in a practical and effective manner is no longer an embarrassing condition. The fitness industry no matter how good each new program claims to be, has failed to get the majority of people to value, practice, and enjoy physical exercise. So, should we expect the answer to this dilemma to e from even more varied, or more technologically advanced programs and equipment? Or will the solution e from a different mindset, a simpler approach and practice, and overall a new culture?(1)What does the author tell us about fitness industry in paragraph 2? provides better technology. is supported by most people. brings about positive effects. costs people too much money.(2)What is the main reason why people fail to do physical exercise? enough equipment. of inner drive. instructions. living conditions.(3)What does the author seem to agree with? attitudes to fitness. on standard practice. more potential customers. to more advanced programs.(4)What is the best title for the text? in fitness about fitness of fitness of fitness【答案】 (1)C(2)B(3)A(4)A 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文,分析了健身市場的發(fā)展帶來的好處,盡管醫(yī)療技術(shù)高度發(fā)達,健康健身產(chǎn)業(yè)蓬勃發(fā)展,但現(xiàn)代人的健康水平卻在下降。問題產(chǎn)生很大一部分原因是人們?nèi)狈?nèi)在動機。作者建議應當改變對健康的態(tài)度。 (1)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段中的“Obviously, much good has e out of these recent developments: there39。s widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every munity has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand more about how the human body works.”顯然,這些最新的發(fā)展帶來了很多好處:人們普遍意識到定期鍛煉的重要性,幾乎每個社區(qū)都有一個健身房或健身俱樂部,人們可以去那里或花錢去那里鍛煉,我們對人體如何工作了解得更多,可知健身產(chǎn)業(yè)帶來了積極的影響。故選C。 (2)考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“A large part of it is motivation.”其中很大一部分是動機,可知人們不鍛煉身體的主要原因是缺乏動機或內(nèi)在驅(qū)動力。故選B。 (3)考查推理判斷。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Or will the solution e from a different mindset, a simpler approach and practice, and overall a new culture?”或者,解決方案將來自一個不同的心態(tài),一個更簡單的方法和實踐,以及一個全新的文化?可推知作者似乎同意改變對健康的態(tài)度。故選A。 (4)考查主旨大意。根據(jù)第一段“As we reflect on
