故本题陈述符合文意。

3、Manypeoplegainweightduetothefactthatthehumanbodyistooefficient.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

4、Ifyoutakeinjust3,00extracalories,thenyouwillgainapoundoffat.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

知识点解析：讲到卡路里的摄人，当然定位在第二个小标题下，以数字3500为切

入点，直接寻找相关句子，Itonlytakes3,500excesscaloriestocreate1poundof

5、Themajorityofdietsoftenhavealastingeffectonpeopleastheyaresustainable.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

6、Itisnotveryeasytoloseweightasthepsychologyoffoodandeatingisvery

powerful.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：C

知识点解析：本题关于减肥不容易的原因，可定位在CuttingCalories小标题下，

原文列出了有效控制饮食减肥的若干办法，但没有提及减肥不容易是因为食物对人

的心理诱惑力太强。故本题在原文中没有提到。

7、Withaviewtocuttingcalories,youshouldrefuseboththepotatochipsandfried

chicken.

A、Y

B、N

C、NG

标准答案：A

weightbecauseexerciseisawaytoincreasethenumberofcaloriesthatyouburnina

day.中Exerciseisonetoolyouhave

9、perdaythanyourbodyneedsistheonlywaytolosefat.

标准答案：Toconsumefewercalories

thanyourbodyneeds.与本题内容完全相同，只是句式上主语和表语变换了位置。

10、Ifyouwanttomaintainaconsistentweight,youmustmake.

标准答案：asustainabledietandexerciseplan

知识点解析：本句是一个条件句，要求填出保持体形的方法，定位在Buildinga

SustainableDiet小标题卜Buildingasustainabledietandexerciseplanisthekeyto

maintainingaconsistentweight.动词build与make起相同作用,key的意思又等同

于musto

11、Youcanmakethebestofexercisebyintegratingsomeformofexerciseinto

标准答案:yourdailyroutine

知识点解析：做到第十题，已经是对文章的第二遍略读了，已了解文章的大致结

构，涉及到锻炼，就要定位在FittinginExercise小标题下，从Onewaytomakethe

mostofexerciseistointegratesomeformofexerciseintoyourdailyroutine.中即可找
