The fitness movement that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s centered around aerobic exercise. Millions of individuals became engaged in a variety of aerobic activities, and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize on this emerging interest in fitness, particularly aerobic dancing for females. A number of fitness spas existed prior to this aerobic fitness movement, even a national chain with spas in most major cities. However, their focus was not on aerobics, but rather on weight-training programs designed to develop muscular mass, strength, and endurance in their primarily male enthusiasts. These fitness spas did not seem to benefit financially from the aerobic fitness movement to better health, since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programs offered few, if any, health benefits. In recent years, however, weight training has again become increasingly popular for males and for females. Many current programs focus not only on developing muscular strength and endurance but on aerobic fitness as well.
Historically, most physical-fitness tests have usually included measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well. The American College of Sports Medicine now recommends that weight training be part of a total fitness program for healthy Americans. Increased participation in such training is one of the specific physical activity and fitness objectives of Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives. [br] Early fitness spas were intended mainly for______.
选项
A、the promotion of aerobic exercise
B、endurance and muscular development
C、the improvement of women’s figures
D、better performance in aerobic dancing
答案
B
解析
第一段中介绍在“aerobic fitness movement”之前就存在了“fitness spas”,但它们的重点却在“Father on weight-training programs designed to develop muscular mass,strength,and endurance in their primarily male enthusiasts”方面,所以[B]正确。第一段“their focus was not on aerobics”中的their指的是“early fitness spas”,由此可见,[A]不符合题意。根据上面的分析我们可以看出,“early fitness spas”的服务对象主要是“male enthusiasts”而非“for the improvement of women’s figures”。所以,[C]也不正确。既然“early fitness spas”的重点不是“on aerobics”,那么也谈不上它的主要目的是“better performance in aerobic dancing”,所以,[D]也不是正确答案。
