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.
Of course, our diets have changed, too, 【C14】______the fact is that we consume fewer calories now than in the 1960s. So what is the 【C15】______? The secret is integrated exercise. This【C16】______going about your normal daily life—but doing it with enthusiasm. It might mean standing to【C17】______the phone and tapping your feet on the floor as you work.

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。[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。
