What we have【C4】______in convenience from labour-saving devices over the past half-century, we have paid for【C5】______a sharp decline in physical activity. We use cars, buses or trains to【C6】______ work: our children are【C7】______to school: elevators and lifts have replaced【C8】______stairs in shopping centres, offices and apartment blocks. Washing machines, vacuum cleaners, dishwashers and electric mowers all reduce the effort required to【C9】______a clean and tidy home. Almost one third of adults【C10】______over ten hours sitting down every day, adding【C11】______a staggering average of 32 years and four months over a lifetime.【C12】______ surprising, then, that researchers【C13】______this lifestyle for our weight gain.

选项
A、in spite of
B、in terms of
C、instead of
D、in that
答案
B
解析
固定搭配题。句意为:……我们是以身体活动的大大减少作为代价的。[A]in spite of表示“尽管”;[B]in terms of表示“在……方面”;[C]instead of表示“代替”;[D]in that表示“由于,既然”。根据上下文可知,这里是说在身体活动大大减少方面,人们付出了代价,故选[B],而其他短语与语义不符,故排除。
