Answer 1

1.C

2.G

3.D

4.E

5.B

【解析】

1.C　[下文“You appreciate your body for its capabilities and accept its

imperfections”是對“feeling satisfied with the way you look”的進一步解釋，故選C項。]

2.2】G　[這里需要一個能承上啟下的句子，上文談到了什么是積極的形象，下文

談了如何才能獲得積極的形象，G項符合要求。]

3.3】D　[由本段中心句“Recongize your strengths”可知，本段講的是要了解自己的

優(yōu)勢。D項正是對這一段的小結(jié)。]

4.4】E　[上文“Good physiques don’t just happen.”指出了問題，E項回答了原因，

且E項中They指代文中的Good physiques，且regular workouts與“exercising 20 minutes to 1 hour three days a week”相對應(yīng)。]

5.5】B　[這里要填的是獲得積極的形象的方法之一，所以要與前面的方法表述方式一致，要用祈使句，下文“Your body is just one part of who you are”解釋了為什么要“Be yourself”，故選B項。]
