It’s no secret that some of the resolutions that many of us vowed to pursue in the new year—eat healthy, lose weight, quit smoking, save more money—have already fallen by the wayside.
Many of them are likely the same resolutions that we abandoned last January. And it’s a good thing for those who sell health club memberships, quit-smoking programs and other products that help us think we can improve our lives.
Many gyms see new memberships double in January, making up for the third of their members who do not renew each year.
And many who sign up in January will be no-shows by February.
" If I try one quick fix and it doesn’t work, I may be more likely to try the next quick fix,". Lisa Lahey, who coaches executives how to sustain behavior change, told The Times.
The Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge doesn’t offer any quick fixes, just a 12-hour schedule full of exercise, a 1,200-calories-a-day diet and a fee of $2,000 a week. The resort teaches its clients that " weight management" is a combination of fitness, diet and emotional health.
" Given my recent weight gain, and the fact that I was turning 50," Jennifer Conlin wrote in The Times, "I wanted to start a program that would make 2012 the year I finally got in shape. "
"For years, the advice to the overweight people has been that we simply need to eat less and exercise more," Tara Parker-Pope wrote. " While there is truth to this guidance, it fails to take into account that the human body continues to fight against weight loss long after dieting has stopped. This translates into a sobering (令人清醒的) reality: once we become fat, most of us, despite our best efforts, will probably stay fat. "
Of course this revelation (揭示) , if proven true by further study, is not good news for the weight-loss industry. But chances are it won’t have much impact on the human tendency to resolve to get to the gym more and avoid chocolate cake when the clock strikes midnight on December 31. [br] What do we learn from the first paragraph about new year resolutions?
选项
A、They are hard to sustain.
B、They test one’s strength.
C、They help shed bad habits.
D、They promise a good year.
答案
A
解析
推理判断题。文章开篇指出,我们许多人曾在新年来临之际发誓要完成的一些新年计划,比如健康饮食、减肥、戒烟、存更多的钱等,都已经半途而废,这已经不是什么秘密了。由此可见,我们的新年计划大多都半途而废,也就是说新年计划很难坚持,因此答案为A)。
