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.

选项
A、Rarely
B、Hardly
C、Almost
D、Nearly
答案
B
解析
副词辨析题。句意为:研究人员把人们发胖归咎于这种生活方式也不会让人感到吃惊了。根据上下文可判断,事实证明人们目前的生活方式是导致发胖的主要原因,对此人们不会感到惊讶,故排除表示肯定意思的[C]和[D]。Rarely表示“罕有地,不经常地”,不能与surprising搭配,故选[B]Hardly,表示“几乎不”。
