Losing weight is easier when there is money on the line, U.S.
researchers said on Tuesday. They said weight-loss programs that
award people with money—and remind them of the cash they【M1】______
stand to lose if they fail—provided with a powerful incentive to【M2】______
lose weight compared with more conventional approaches. Dr.
Kevin Volpp of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine
was looking for an effective way to treat obese, a growing problem【M3】______
that carries serious health risks. He said many weight-loss
programs fail before people are being asked to make sacrifices【M4】______
now.
Volpp and colleagues studied two kinds of incentive programs
for weight loss. One was a lottery-based design in which
participants played a lottery and were allowed to collect their
winnings if they met their weight-loss target. The other was a
deposit contract, in which participants invested small amount of【M5】______
their own money which they would lose at the end of the month if
they succeeded to reach their goals. People in this group also got a【M6】______
bonus if they met their goal.
The researchers resigned 57 obese but otherwise healthy【M7】______
people to one of these two groups or a control group, in which
people were simply weighed at the end of each month. All were
aimed to lose 7.26 kg by the end of four months. People in the【M8】______
incentive groups lost far more weight than that who got no pay for【M9】______
their efforts, with about half of the participants in each group meet【M10】______
their weight loss goals. [br] 【M10】
选项
答案
meet—meeting
解析
语法错误。此处是with引导的独立主格结构,动词应该用非谓语形式,由于前面的participants与meet their goals是主动关系.因此用meet的现在分词形式,即meeting,本句意为“激励组的成员比那些努力减肥但无金钱回报的人减掉了更多的体重,而每组中都有约一半的参与者达到了其减肥目标”。
