13.When I walk through the streets,I pass strange rooms where people are doing strange things.Some are biking madly.Others are holding metal bars to keep them from dropping down.Still others are jumping around while someone is shouting at them.It looks like something out of Dante's Inferno (但丁《神曲》中的《地獄篇》).But what is the most amazing is that people pay for these sufferings!
The strange rooms are gyms.It is reported that some 41million Americans are gym members.12% of the memberships are born in January,as they are determined to knock off (使減少) the holiday fat.Maybe it is good to exercise in the gym.However,should they know they can keep in good shape,spending little money,would they still agree with its necessity?
At the age of 23,I joined a gym.I lifted weights twice a week in Muscle's Gym.I paid as little as﹩200per year.You can't find such gyms in every city any more.Too often,the gym is fancy (花哨的) with lots of equipment.If you ask how much it costs to join it,the person at the front desk often won't tell you straight.Instead,he'll let you meet with a fitness consultant (健身顧問(wèn)),who will provide you with a great number of reasons and suggestions,such as losing weight and getting healthier,just in order to put pressure on you to spend much money joining the gym and becoming a member there.
Working out with the help of equipment at home has problems,too.In the early 2000's,I bought a spinning bike at a cost of﹩700for home use.I tried a few times only to find that it brought me a neck problem.
Now I'm back to my old way.I do Yoga(瑜伽)every morning and evening.Total cost:﹩60for an exercise mat (墊子).I'm enjoying fitness.

25.The strange rooms are places where peopleD.
A.do strange things
B.suffer from great pains
C.play Dante's Inferno
D.take physical exercise
26.In the author's opinion,joining a gym nowadays isC.
A.exciting
B.inexpensive
C.unnecessary
D.helpful
27.The author wrote something about Muscle's Gym toD.
A.tell us he was fat when he was young
B.suggest a new way of losing weight
C.provide us with an example of gyms
D.compare it with the gyms of today
28.From the text we can infer thatA.
A.many Americans put on weight after Christmas and New Year's Day
B.the author and his family had spent a lot of money exercising in gyms
C.12% of the American people are members of gyms
D.spinning bikes are good equipment for exercise.

分析 很多人到健身房健身以達(dá)到瘦身健康的目的.但健身房是否能夠真的起到作用?作者結(jié)合自身經(jīng)歷,認(rèn)為鍛煉不一定必須要去健身房.

解答 25.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段的Thestrange rooms are gyms.和Maybe it is good to exercise in the gym.可知那些奇怪的房間是健身房,也許在健身房鍛煉很好.所以健身房是用來(lái)進(jìn)行體育鍛煉的,故選D.
26.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段的However,should they know they can keep in goodshape,spending littlemoney,would they stillagree with its necessity?作者反問(wèn),如果人們能夠花費(fèi)更少的錢(qián)來(lái)保持身材,是否健身房就一定是必要的?后面舉例說(shuō)明,去健身房貴,因此B錯(cuò)誤,可以采用其他的方式替代.作者試過(guò)健身房、戶外運(yùn)動(dòng)等鍛煉方式,最終回歸到了最初的運(yùn)動(dòng)方式,可以推斷,作者認(rèn)為去健身房鍛煉不是必須的,故選C.
27.D 判斷推理題. 根據(jù)第三段可知,作者將Muscle's Gym和現(xiàn)在的健身房做對(duì)比,認(rèn)為現(xiàn)在的健身房更貴,故選D.
28.A 判斷推理題.根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的Ibought a spinning bike at a cost of $700 for home use.I tried a few times only to find that itbrought me a neck problem.可知?jiǎng)痈袉诬?chē)只給作者帶來(lái)了頸椎問(wèn)題,D錯(cuò)誤.It is reported that some 41 millionAmericans are gym members.12% of the memberships are born in January,as they are determined to lose the holidayfat.據(jù)報(bào)道,大約有4100萬(wàn)美國(guó)人是健身房的會(huì)員.而其中的12%,是1月加入的,目的是減掉假期增加的脂肪.文章只說(shuō)了4100萬(wàn)美國(guó)人為健身房會(huì)員,并沒(méi)有說(shuō)這個(gè)人數(shù)占到總?cè)丝诘?2%,C不正確.在經(jīng)過(guò)圣誕和元旦兩個(gè)假期后,美國(guó)人決定運(yùn)動(dòng)減脂,故A正確.作者在健身房花費(fèi)的錢(qián)比較少,B錯(cuò)誤.故選A.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是人生感悟類閱讀,主要考查細(xì)節(jié)理解題和推理判斷題.在做細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí),首先根據(jù)題目要求迅速在文章里找出相應(yīng)的段落、句子或短語(yǔ).認(rèn)真比較選項(xiàng)和文中細(xì)節(jié)的區(qū)別,在做推理判斷題時(shí)不要以個(gè)人的主觀想象代替文章的事實(shí),要根據(jù)文章事實(shí)進(jìn)行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.
