I’m always baffled when I walk into a pharmacy and see shelves bursting with various vitamins, extracts and other supplements, all promising to accelerate or promote weight loss. Aisles of marketing genius belie (掩饰) the fact that, 【C1】 ________ weight loss is dictated by the laws of arithmetic. Economist Jessica Irvine wrote a book about how she used math to help her lose more than 18 kilograms. If calories taken in are less than calories 【C2】 ________ , weight shall be lost, and so it is with money.
Despite the 【C3】 ________ of financial products, services and solutions geared towards accumulating wealth, if all begins with the same 【C4】 ________ : getting ahead financially requires a reduction of spending, so that income is greater than expenses. I was reminded of this again recently listening to an interview with Nicole Haddow, the author of Smashed Avocado, explaining how she cracked the property market at 31. It was quite a 【C5】 ________ , given where she had been two years earlier.
Nicole didn’t celebrate her 30th birthday as she had 【C6】 ________ . She was sobbing at the dinner table with her parents, with whom she had just moved back in. She had no stable income, $ 12,000 in credit-card debt and no plan, but to her 【C7】 ________ , her father, an accountant, told her that her financial 【C8】 ________ wasn’t as bad as she thought. He said, on her income, with some changes, she would be able to buy an investment unit within two years, which she did.
Nicole admitted she was fortunate, as she was able to live with her parents and 【C9】 ________ her spending— and life—to get herself on track financially. Creating a gap between her income and spending required a paradigm shift and 【C10】 ________ sacrifice and commitment, but by going into financial lockdown, Nicole gained financial independence.
A) abundance F) expended K) permanently
B) astonishment G) feat L) plight
C) entailed H) fiscally M) prosper
D) envisaged I) impetus N) shatter
E) equation J) overhaul O) ultimately [br] 【C1】
选项
答案
O
解析
副词辨析题。空格位于that引导的同位语从句的句首,其后的同位语从句结构完整,句意连贯,因此空格处应填入副词,修饰整个从句。上一句提到,药店货架上的商品全都承诺能加速或促进减肥,紧接着该句指出药店的销售人员掩盖的事实是减肥是由算术法则决定的,表明药店的销售人员也明白最终决定减肥的是算术法则而不是补品。因此,空格处填入的副词应表达“最终”的意思,故O) ultimately为本题答案。
