Fifty years ago, most people’s daily levels of activity were equivalent to walking three to five miles a day. Today, the【C1】______person fails to 【C2】______ that distance in a week. It’s 【C3】______the ratio of fatness has soared—with serious implications for health.
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、gained
B、received
C、accepted
D、acquired
答案
A
解析
动词辨析题。gain和acquire虽然都表示“获得”,但是gain强调“不费力气获得好处和便利”,acquire强调“通过努力获得(知识等)”,文意为:我们不需要付出努力便可从先进的设备和工具中获取便利,所以此题选[A]gained。[B]received表示“收到”,[C]accepted表示“接受”,与文意不符,故排除。
