问题     Official health advice that said household chores help keep you active has been proved wrong by the research, which shows that the people who do the most housework are also the most overweight. A study of the physical activity habits of 4,563 adults, carried out by Professor Marie Murphy at the University of Ulster found that women and older people were particularly likely to list "【C1】______physical activity as a significant proportion of their moderate to【C2】______physical activity".
    Murphy said: "We found housework was reversely【C3】______to leanness, which suggests that either people are overestimating the amount of moderate-intensity physical activity they do through housework or are eating too much to【C4】______for the amount of activity undertaken."
    Kevin Fenton, director of health and wellbeing at Public Health England, suggested the study could【C5】______evidence that some people thought they were healthier than they actually were.
    "At an individual level there may be a【C6】______to overestimate the level of ’good behaviour’ we’re doing and this is reflected when people use food diaries, pedometers (计步器) or apps to measure more【C7】______what they have achieved." he said.
    But he defended everyday tasks as genuinely useful. He added: "From an individual【C8】______, physical activities such as housework, doing the shopping and walking to collect children from school, can have【C9】______impacts on physical and mental wellbeing. People who are even more active will often see greater benefits and it is important to recognise that healthy weight is just one of the potential【C10】______of physical activity."
A) account E) domestic I) perspective M) related
B) adjusted F) gentle J) positive N) tendency
C) causes G) objectively K) practically O) vigorous
D) compensate H) outcomes L) reinforce
【C6】
选项
答案N
解析 根据空格前的不定冠词a，可知此处应该填单数可数名词。空格后提到人们高估所做的“良好行为”的水平，以及第3段提到的“有些人高估了自己的实际健康状况”，都属于人们的一种意识行为上的“倾向”，故选tendency。干扰项perspective尤指受到某种思想、经验影响的观点，其后常接介词on或of。
