Money, or the lack of it, changes everything, and that includes how people will be working out in 2010.

In these belt-tightening times  1  , cost-conscious workouts(鍛煉)at home and at the gym topped the list of fitness trends for this year in a survey, followed  2   by shorter, more time-efficient regimens, such as  3   boot camp(強力集中訓練) and circuit training.

"People are looking  4   for ways to accomplish as much as possible with as little  5   time and money as necessary," said Cedric X. Bryant, chief science officer of the American Council on Exercise (ACE), which conducted the online poll of fitness professionals.

"Last year money was on the list but this  6   year the majority of the respondents put  7   it as one of the top," he added.

Bryant said some 600 ACE-certified fitness  8   professionals responded to the annual poll  9  , which the non-profit organization has been conducting for a decade.

Other money-saving measures  10  , such as the shift from personal training sessions to small group training  11   classes and in-home workouts  12   using smaller, more portable equipment, also made the list.

"Personal trainers are seeing they've got to respond to market needs  13  . Working with two to four clients at a  14   time they can charge less  15   but still get their hourly fee," Bryant said.

Boot-camp workouts and circuit training, both of which burn  16   calories while building strength and endurance(持久性), will be among the most popular trends in 2010, as time-constrained(受壓制的) consumers  17   seek shorter, more intense activities.

One bright spot is the rise of exergaming-type systems, like Nintendo's Wii Sports, Wii Fit and the PC-based Dancetown. Bryant says the fitness-based video games are turning up  18   in health clubs and senior centers.

Functional training workouts, which are geared to improving the quality of life and the ability to perform everyday tasks, will remain strong  19  , and the use of computerized tracking and online training and scheduling tools will increase  20   in the coming year.

解析:

本文通過一項調(diào)查說明了錢左右著人們的健身方式。完成本完形填空時,我們應(yīng)把生活中的金融危機這個實際和作者的思路邏輯聯(lián)系起來。

1. A 檢測名詞的含義辨析及準確理解應(yīng)用。聯(lián)系上下文的語境,及日常生活中的常識,我們?nèi)菀淄评沓鲞@一句的語境是:在當下需要勒緊褲腰帶過日子的時期,人們將在家和健身房用省錢的方法健身列為首選,緊接著是如強力訓練和循環(huán)訓練這種更省時間的強化鍛煉方式。我們?nèi)菀着袛喑龃颂帒?yīng)該填上表示時期時代之意的名詞,這四個詞中只有A項(times:時代)有這樣的意思。BCD項依次分別所表達的意思是:數(shù)年,數(shù)世紀,社會,很明顯放在這兒都不能使句意通順,故我們選擇A項為最佳答案。

2. B考查動詞過去分詞的含義理解及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。由上一題的分析我們不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上表示緊接著之意的動詞的過去分詞,用它來和by搭配,構(gòu)成表示由……緊跟著,由……緊接著等這樣的意思,也即是B項(follow:跟在,跟著),而其余ACD項依次分別所表達的意思是:抓住,覆蓋,實施,這些詞語所表示的意思都和這兒的語言邏輯及語境不相契合,故我們選擇B項為最佳答案。

3. C 檢測介詞短語的含義的準確記憶與理解英語。由第一題的分析我們很容易確定此處應(yīng)該填上表示例如之意的介詞短語,也即是C項(such as :例如),而BD項依次分別所表達的意思是:換句話說,也就是說,其實它們兩個意思一樣,至于A項,根本就沒這樣的搭配,故C項為準確答案。

4. D考查動詞現(xiàn)在分詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。經(jīng)過分析,語意是:人們一直在尋找能盡量少花時間、少花錢,達到最好的效果的方法。我們?nèi)菀淄评沓龃颂帒?yīng)該填上表示尋找之意的動詞現(xiàn)在分詞,而A項和for搭配后,所表達的意思是:把……當做……,而其余BC兩項依次分別所表達的意思是:發(fā)展,打開,通常也不會和for搭配,再者即使搭配起來,這些詞語所表示的意思都和這兒的語言邏輯不相適宜,顯得不倫不類,故我們選擇D項為最佳答案。

5. A 檢測形容詞的含義的準確記憶與理解辨析及在語言邏輯方面的合理應(yīng)用。由上一題的分析我們不難發(fā)現(xiàn)此處應(yīng)該填上表示少之意的形容詞來修飾time,D項(少)的具有很大的迷惑性,但是它用來修飾可數(shù)名詞,而time(時間)是不可數(shù)名詞,故用A項來修飾。而其余BC兩項依次分別所表達的意思是:很多(修飾不可數(shù)名詞),很多(修飾可數(shù)名詞),這樣的意思和這兒要表達的意思剛好相反,當然不對了,故我們選擇A項為最佳答案。

6. C檢測指示代詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。聯(lián)系上下文的語境,我們?nèi)菀淄评沓鲞@一句的語境是:去年,錢被列為需要考慮的因素,但今年大部分受訪者將其列為最重要的考慮因素之一,我們不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上表示這之意的代詞,和year一起表示今年這樣的意思,也即是C項,而其余ABD項依次分別所表達的意思是:那個,下一個,先前的,很明顯放在這兒都都不符合此處的上下文之間語言邏輯,也不能使句意通順,故我們選擇C項為最佳答案。

7. B 考查動詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。由上一題的分析我們不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上的詞應(yīng)和后面的as一起構(gòu)成動詞短語,并且表示把……歸為…….,把……列為……,之意,這四個詞中只有B項(put:放,擱置)有這樣的意思,而其余ACD三項依次分別所表達的意思是:管理,嘗試,組織,這些詞語所表示的意思都和這兒的語言邏輯不相契合,故我們選擇B項為最佳答案。

8. D 檢測名詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。聯(lián)系上下文的語境,我們?nèi)菀淄评沓鲞@一句的語境是:約600名經(jīng)美國鍛煉協(xié)會認證的保健專業(yè)人士參與了這一年度調(diào)查。之所以是保健專業(yè)人士,是因為全文論述的都是人們花錢來鍛煉,當然是為了保持身體健康,對從事這樣專業(yè)的人士進行調(diào)查更具有意義,而其余ABC項依次分別所表達的意思是:藥,培訓,經(jīng)濟,很明顯放在這兒都不能使句意通順,故D項為準確答案。

9. A檢測名詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。 由上一題的分析我們不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上表示調(diào)查之意的名詞,也即是A項,BCD項依次分別所表達的意思是:會議,觀察,接待,其中C項的具有很大的迷惑性,但是全文是建立在調(diào)查之上的,前文已經(jīng)有了提示,故我們選擇A項為最佳答案。

10. A 檢測名詞的含義的準確記憶與理解辨析。聯(lián)系上下文的語境,及日常生活中的常識(當人們沒有錢來進行高級而昂貴的鍛煉時,自然要轉(zhuǎn)向花費較少的鍛煉方式),我們?nèi)菀淄评沓鲞@一句的語境是:其他省錢辦法包括從個人課程轉(zhuǎn)為集體課,以及使用更小更便攜的器材在家鍛煉等也在調(diào)查的列表里。不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上表示方式辦法之意的名詞,也即是B項,而其余ACD項依次分別所表達的意思是:進程,政策,系統(tǒng),這些詞語所表示的意思都和這兒的語言邏輯不相吻合,故我們選擇A項為最佳答案。

11. B 檢測動名詞的含義的準確記憶與理解應(yīng)用。由上一題的分析我們不難看出前面有私人培訓課程,那么此處應(yīng)該填上表示小組培訓課程(training:培訓)之意的動名詞,也即是B項,而其余ACD項依次分別所表達的意思是:講話,鍛煉,處理,其中C項的具有很大的迷惑性,但是為了和前面的結(jié)構(gòu)相一致,我們選擇B項為最佳答案。

12. B 檢測名詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。由第10題的分析我們不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上表示鍛煉之意的名詞,這四個詞中只有B項有這樣的意思,而其余ACD項依次分別所表達的意思是:工作,休息,比賽,這些意思在這兒都不符合此處的上下文之間語言邏輯,故B項為準確答案。

13. C 檢測名詞的含義的準確記憶與理解及邏輯應(yīng)用。聯(lián)系上下文的語境,及日常生活中的常識(私人培訓者因為少了培訓對象也得考慮自己的需求),我們?nèi)菀淄评沓鲞@一句的語境是:私人教練覺得必須針對市場需求形勢做出相應(yīng)的回應(yīng),進行調(diào)整。我們?nèi)菀状_定此處應(yīng)該填上表示需求之意的名詞,ABD項依次分別所表達的意思是:變化,價格,習慣,很明顯放在這兒都不能使句意通順,只有C項(need:需求)有這樣的意思,故C項為準確答案。

14. D 檢測名詞詞組的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。 聯(lián)系上下文的語境,由上一題的分析,我們?nèi)菀淄评沓鲞@一句的語境是:他們可以一次同時輔導(dǎo)兩到四個客戶,這樣可以收較少的收費,但仍可以保證收入。顯然,此處應(yīng)該和time一起構(gòu)成短語并且表示一次之意,這四個詞中只有D項有這樣的意思。而其余ABC項依次分別和time搭配之后所表達的意思是:一段時間,沒有時間,任何時間,這些短語語所表示的意思都和這兒的語言邏輯不相契合,故我們選擇D項為最佳答案。

15. A 檢測形容詞比較級的含義的準確記憶與理解辨析應(yīng)用。 由上一題的分析我們不難看出此處應(yīng)該填上表示較少的之意的形容詞的比較級,并且代指錢,也即是A項,而其余BCD項依次分別所表達的意思是:較少的(代指可數(shù)名詞),較多的,很多的,其中B項的容易讓人上當,但是這些意思在這兒都不符合此處的上下文之間語言邏輯,故A項為準確答案。

16. B 考查動詞的含義辨析及在語言邏輯方面的準確應(yīng)用。經(jīng)過分析,語意是:由于人們時間緊迫,耗時少、強度大的健身活動更受青睞,2010年最受歡迎的健身項目將是強力瘦身訓練和循環(huán)訓練,這兩種方式既可以燃燒脂肪,又可以增強力量和耐力。我們?nèi)菀淄评沓龃颂帒?yīng)該填上表示燃燒之意的動詞,也即是B項,而其余ACD項依次分別所表達的意思是:生產(chǎn),剪切,加上,很明顯放在這兒都不能使句意通順,故B項為準確答案。

Nothing can spoil a vacation quicker than losing your money or credit cards. A few simple steps before you head out of the door can help protect your cash, card and personal information while you’re traveling.
Paul Stephens, a policy analyst San Diego, notes that people spend a lot of time planning their trips, from buying guidebooks to finding just the right beach outfits(裝備).“But their eyes glaze(呆滯) over when the subject of keeping money safe comes up,” he said.
“Why not take a few minutes to do something that could probably save your vacation?” Stephens asked.“In most cases, they can go on your to-do list with‘ buy travel bags’ and everything else,” he added.
The top recommendation is to clean your wallet. Remove unnecessary credit cards and any other unneeded documents that could compromise(危及...的安全)your identity if lost or stolen while you’re on vocation.
Then make a photocopy of the cards you’ve decided to take along and keep it in a secure location with you(not in your wallet)or leave it with a trusted relative or friend back home. Then you will know who you need to contact and how to reach it if your wallet is missing.
“Travelers should never leave their wallets or any identifying documents in their hotel room when they’re not there,” he said.” Choose a hotel with a safe to keep your valuable things in. Or keep your wallet and documents with you at all times. ”

In Western countries people have been using the installment (分期付款) plan since the first half of the twentieth century. Today, a large number of families in Great Britain buy furniture, household goods and cars by installments. In the U.S.A.,the figure is much higher than in Great Britain, and people there spend over 10 percent of their income on the installment plan.
The price of an article bought on installments is always higher than the price that would be paid by cash. There is a charge for interest. The buyer pays one quarter or one third of the price as a down payment (預(yù)付定金) when the goods are delivered to him. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full price is paid up. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the final payment has been made.
Installment buying has advantages and disadvantages. It can help couples with small incomes to furnish their homes and start housekeeping. It increases the demand for goods, and in this way helps business and employment,There is,
however, the danger that when business is bad, installment buying may end suddenly, making business much worse. This may result in a great increase in unemployment.
If the people on the installment plan lose their jobs, they will probably not be able to make their payments. If great numbers of people are not able to pay their installment debts, there is a possibility that businessmen cannot collect their debts and will therefore lose money. If businessmen lose money or fail to make a satisfactory profit,it becomes more likely to have a depression (蕭條). This is why, in some countries,the government controls the installment plan by fixing the amount of the down payment and installments to discourage people from buying more than they can pay for on the installment plan.
【小題1】 Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the installment plan?

A.A lot of British families use the installment plan. "
B.More than 10 percent of American families buy things on installments.
C.Americans depend more on installment than British people do.
D.Americans spend one tenth of their income on installment buying.
【小題2】 Goods bought on installments are more expensive than goods bought by cash because_______.
A.the buyer has to pay extra money as interest
B.the delivery of the goods charges extra money
C.the buyer has to pay adown payment
D.the service offered by installment plan charged extra money
【小題3】 What will happen to a buyer if he fails to make the full payment for an item bought on installments?
A.He might lose his job.
B.He will stop owning the item he has bought.
C.He will have to setl what he has bought.
D.He will go into debt.
【小題4】 The advantage of installment buying might include all the following EXCEPT that________.
A.purchasing power is strengthened
B.employment might be increased
C.people develop a good habit of saving money
D.young couples are able to furnish their homes
【小題5】In some countries, the governments control the installment plan to_______.
A.increase employment
B.a(chǎn)void depressions
C.ensure that businesses make good profits
D.ensure that people can pay for what they buy

Love, success, happiness, family and freedom—how important are these values to you? Here is one interview which explores the fundamental questions in life.
Question: Could you introduce yourself first?
Answer: My name is Misbah, 27 years old. I was born in a war-torn area. Right now I’m a web designer.
Q: What are your great memories?
A: My parents used to take us to hunt birds, climb trees, and play in the fields. For me it was like a holiday because we were going to have fun all day long. Those are my great memories.
Q: Does your childhood mean a lot to you?

A: If I could change something in my life, I’d change it so that my childhood could have taken place in another area. I would have loved to live with my family in freedom. Who cares whether we have much money, or whether we have a beautiful house? It doesn’t matter as long as I can live with my family and we are safe.
Q: How do your get along with your parents?
A: My parents supported me until I came of age. I want to give back what I’ve got. That’s our way. But I am working in another city. My only contact with my parents now is through the phone, but I hate using it. It filters(過濾) out your emotion and leaves your voice only. My deepest feelings should be passed through sight, hearing and touch.

From tablet computers to smart phones, American shoppers have been lining up to get the newest and coolest electronic devices on the market. There are more choices today than ever before. "It's kind of hard to make a decision."
Tablet computers are one of the best-selling products this year. Brian Tong is Senior Editor of CNET.com. The website reports on tech news and examines the latest electronic products. He says the Apple iPad Mini is one of the most popular tablets. Its starting price is $329. One of Apple’s biggest competitors is the Google Nexus 7. It starts at $199.
Its hardware is more powerful than what’s in the iPad Mini, but also it offers you a lot of things like maps that work better than Apple’s maps.
But Brian Tong says there is one reason why people may like the iPad Mini more than the Nexus 7. “If you just want to read books and surf the Internet, you don’t really need to get an iPad Mini, but if you want the largest robust group of apps (應(yīng)用軟件) that’s where the iPad and Apple’s ecosystem shines the most.”
Elman Chacon is with the electronics store Best Buy. He says another hot product this season is smart cameras. They connect to the Internet through WiFi. This makes it easy for users to email or upload photographs directly from the camera.
“You can literally take a picture and upload it into your Facebook in a matter of seconds. These things are pretty cool because they do a lot of things.”
Streaming media boxes also connect to the Internet. People are able to watch web content such as movies and YouTube videos on their televisions. Another popular item is wireless speaker systems. The newest ones work with any device that has Bluetooth technology, including smart phones, laptops and tablets.
