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、expeditions
B、voyages
C、tours
D、journeys
答案
D
解析
名词辨析题。[D]journeys应用范围很广,指“有预定地点的陆上、水上或空中的单程长、短途旅行”,一般来说,它侧重指长距离的陆上旅行,故选[D]。[A]expeditions表示“有特定目的的远征或探险”;[B]voyages主要指“乘船在水上旅行”,也可指“空中旅行”;[C]tours指“以游览、视察、购物等为目的的旅行”,常含有“最后回到原出发点”的意思,以上三项均可排除。
