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(锻炼)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(强力集中训练) 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(受压制的) 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:

本文通过一项调查说明了钱左右着人们的健身方式。完成本完形填空时,我们应把生活中的金融危机这个实际和作者的思路逻辑联系起来。

1. A 检测名词的含义辨析及准确理解应用。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:在当下需要勒紧裤腰带过日子的时期,人们将在家和健身房用省钱的方法健身列为首选,紧接着是如强力训练和循环训练这种更省时间的强化锻炼方式。我们容易判断出此处应该填上表示时期时代之意的名词,这四个词中只有A项(times:时代)有这样的意思。BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:数年,数世纪,社会,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

2. B考查动词过去分词的含义理解及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示紧接着之意的动词的过去分词,用它来和by搭配,构成表示由……紧跟着,由……紧接着等这样的意思,也即是B项(follow:跟在,跟着),而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:抓住,覆盖,实施,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑及语境不相契合,故我们选择B项为最佳答案。

3. C 检测介词短语的含义的准确记忆与理解英语。由第一题的分析我们很容易确定此处应该填上表示例如之意的介词短语,也即是C项(such as :例如),而BD项依次分别所表达的意思是:换句话说,也就是说,其实它们两个意思一样,至于A项,根本就没这样的搭配,故C项为准确答案。

4. D考查动词现在分词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。经过分析,语意是:人们一直在寻找能尽量少花时间、少花钱,达到最好的效果的方法。我们容易推理出此处应该填上表示寻找之意的动词现在分词,而A项和for搭配后,所表达的意思是:把……当做……,而其余BC两项依次分别所表达的意思是:发展,打开,通常也不会和for搭配,再者即使搭配起来,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不相适宜,显得不伦不类,故我们选择D项为最佳答案。

5. A 检测形容词的含义的准确记忆与理解辨析及在语言逻辑方面的合理应用。由上一题的分析我们不难发现此处应该填上表示少之意的形容词来修饰time,D项(少)的具有很大的迷惑性,但是它用来修饰可数名词,而time(时间)是不可数名词,故用A项来修饰。而其余BC两项依次分别所表达的意思是:很多(修饰不可数名词),很多(修饰可数名词),这样的意思和这儿要表达的意思刚好相反,当然不对了,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

6. C检测指示代词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。联系上下文的语境,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:去年,钱被列为需要考虑的因素,但今年大部分受访者将其列为最重要的考虑因素之一,我们不难看出此处应该填上表示这之意的代词,和year一起表示今年这样的意思,也即是C项,而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:那个,下一个,先前的,很明显放在这儿都都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,也不能使句意通顺,故我们选择C项为最佳答案。

7. B 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上的词应和后面的as一起构成动词短语,并且表示把……归为…….,把……列为……,之意,这四个词中只有B项(put:放,搁置)有这样的意思,而其余ACD三项依次分别所表达的意思是:管理,尝试,组织,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不相契合,故我们选择B项为最佳答案。

8. D 检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。联系上下文的语境,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:约600名经美国锻炼协会认证的保健专业人士参与了这一年度调查。之所以是保健专业人士,是因为全文论述的都是人们花钱来锻炼,当然是为了保持身体健康,对从事这样专业的人士进行调查更具有意义,而其余ABC项依次分别所表达的意思是:药,培训,经济,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故D项为准确答案。

9. A检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。 由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示调查之意的名词,也即是A项,BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:会议,观察,接待,其中C项的具有很大的迷惑性,但是全文是建立在调查之上的,前文已经有了提示,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

10. A 检测名词的含义的准确记忆与理解辨析。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识(当人们没有钱来进行高级而昂贵的锻炼时,自然要转向花费较少的锻炼方式),我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:其他省钱办法包括从个人课程转为集体课,以及使用更小更便携的器材在家锻炼等也在调查的列表里。不难看出此处应该填上表示方式办法之意的名词,也即是B项,而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:进程,政策,系统,这些词语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不相吻合,故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

11. B 检测动名词的含义的准确记忆与理解应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出前面有私人培训课程,那么此处应该填上表示小组培训课程(training:培训)之意的动名词,也即是B项,而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:讲话,锻炼,处理,其中C项的具有很大的迷惑性,但是为了和前面的结构相一致,我们选择B项为最佳答案。

12. B 检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由第10题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示锻炼之意的名词,这四个词中只有B项有这样的意思,而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:工作,休息,比赛,这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故B项为准确答案。

13. C 检测名词的含义的准确记忆与理解及逻辑应用。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识(私人培训者因为少了培训对象也得考虑自己的需求),我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:私人教练觉得必须针对市场需求形势做出相应的回应,进行调整。我们容易确定此处应该填上表示需求之意的名词,ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:变化,价格,习惯,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,只有C项(need:需求)有这样的意思,故C项为准确答案。

14. D 检测名词词组的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。 联系上下文的语境,由上一题的分析,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:他们可以一次同时辅导两到四个客户,这样可以收较少的收费,但仍可以保证收入。显然,此处应该和time一起构成短语并且表示一次之意,这四个词中只有D项有这样的意思。而其余ABC项依次分别和time搭配之后所表达的意思是:一段时间,没有时间,任何时间,这些短语语所表示的意思都和这儿的语言逻辑不相契合,故我们选择D项为最佳答案。

15. A 检测形容词比较级的含义的准确记忆与理解辨析应用。 由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示较少的之意的形容词的比较级,并且代指钱,也即是A项,而其余BCD项依次分别所表达的意思是:较少的(代指可数名词),较多的,很多的,其中B项的容易让人上当,但是这些意思在这儿都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故A项为准确答案。

16. B 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。经过分析,语意是:由于人们时间紧迫,耗时少、强度大的健身活动更受青睐,2010年最受欢迎的健身项目将是强力瘦身训练和循环训练,这两种方式既可以燃烧脂肪,又可以增强力量和耐力。我们容易推理出此处应该填上表示燃烧之意的动词,也即是B项,而其余ACD项依次分别所表达的意思是:生产,剪切,加上,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故B项为准确答案。

17. C 检测名词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。由上一题的分析我们不难看出此处应该填上表示进行锻炼的人们,其实就是这些锻炼活动的消费者(C项:consumers),而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:专业人士,学生,培训者,都不符合此处的上下文之间语言逻辑,故C项为准确答案。

18. A 考查动词短语的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:健身类视频游戏越来越多地出现在健康俱乐部和老人中心,不难看出此处应该填上表示出现之意的动词词组,这四个词的意思分别依次是:变大或出现,变小或拒绝,转身或绕过,结果是。看来只有A项有这样的意思。故我们选择A项为最佳答案。

19. C 检测形容词的含义的准确记忆与理解。联系上下文的语境,及日常生活中的常识,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:以功能性训练为目的的健身将继续保持强劲势头,此处应该填上表示强劲之意的形容词,这四个词中只有C项有这样的意思。而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:虚弱的,有用的,可能的,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故我们选择C项为最佳答案。

20. C 考查动词的含义辨析及在语言逻辑方面的准确应用。联系上下文的语境,我们容易推理出这一句的语境是:此外,计算机跟踪、在线训练和排程工具的使用在来年也会增加。这四个词中只有C项是增加之意的动词。而其余ABD项依次分别所表达的意思是:减少,出现,想要,很明显放在这儿都不能使句意通顺,故我们选择C项为最佳答案。

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(装备).“But their eyes glaze(呆滞) 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.

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 (预付定金) 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 (萧条). 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.
【小题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.
【小题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
【小题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.
【小题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
【小题5】In some countries, the governments control the installment plan to_______.

Consumer electronics once again topped the list of the most wanted gifts this holiday season.
“Seventy-six percent of consumers who plan to buy holiday gifts say that they will spend money or buy at least one technology product; definitely a solid vote of confidence for technology.”
Steve Koenig is with the Consumer Electronics Association. He says the group’s latest research also shows that Americans this year are spending more on technology products. “Here in 2012, $252 on average——the technology spend for consumers this year.
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 (应用软件) 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.
【小题1】What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?

A.Every technology product costs an average of $252.
B.Consumers are spending $252 more on technology products than last year.
C.Consumers should spend $252 on their technology products.
D.It is estimated that $252 on average might be spent on electronics by consumers in 2012.
【小题2】According to Brian Tong, why may people prefer the iPad Mini to the Google Nexus 7?
A.Because it is cheaper.
B.Because it has more functions.
C.Because you can read books and surf the Internet with it.
D.Because it offers you a lot of things like maps that work better than Apple’s maps.
【小题3】What does “Its hardware” in Paragraph 6 refer to?
A.The hardware of tablet computers.
B.The hardware of the Apple iPad.
C.The hardware of the Google Nexus 7.
D.The hardware of the iPad Mini.
【小题4】Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.People will spend most of their money on electronics.
B.Photos can be uploaded from the camera when connected to a computer.
C.A streaming media box is a box which can contain CDs.
D.Most people would like to buy electronics as gifts.
【小题5】Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
