The fitness movement that began in the late 1960s and early 1970s centered around aerobic exercise (有氧操). Millions of individuals became engaged in a variety of aerobic activities, and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize (获利) on this emerging interest in fitness, particularly aerobic dancing for females. A number of fitness spas existed prior to this aerobic fitness movement, even a national chain with spas in most major cities. However, their focus was not on aerobics, but rather on weight-training programs designed to develop muscular mass, strength, and endurance in their primarily male enthusiasts. These fitness spas did not seem to benefit financially from the aerobic fitness movement to better health, since medical opinion suggested that weight-training programs offered few, if any, health benefits. In recent years, however, weight training has again become increasingly popular for males and for females. Many current programs focus not only on developing muscular strength and endurance but on aerobic fitness as well.
Historically, most physical-fitness tests have usually included measures of muscular strength and endurance, not for health-related reasons, but primarily because such fitness components have been related to performance in athletics. However, in recent years, evidence has shown that training programs designed primarily to improve muscular strength and endurance might also offer some health benefits as well. The American College of Sports Medicine now recommends that weight training be part of a total fitness program for healthy Americans. Increased participation in such training is one of the specific physical activity and fitness objectives of Healthy People 2000: National Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Objectives.

The word "spas" (Line 3, Para. 1) most probably refers to______.
选项
A、sports activities
B、recreation centers
C、places for physical exercise
D、athletic training programs
答案
C
解析
本题属于词义辨析题,此种题型涉及熟词生义和生词辨义两种。本题为第二种,测试考生根据上下文推测生词意思的能力。本题中“spas”为spa的复数形式,原意为“(减肥)温泉疗养地,游乐胜地”。但根据本文上下文内容推测,应为“健身中心”,即进行体育锻炼的地方。故C正确。B“娱乐中心”,与文章内容不切合。而A和D两项与上下文逻辑不符。短文第一段第三行说:“…and literally thousands of health spas developed around the country to capitalize(获利)on this emerging interest in fitness,particularly aerobic dancing for females.”(……字面上统计,全国成千上万个health spas在健身热中获利,尤其是女子有氧健身操。)根据“capitalize”(获利)这个单词,可以推测出其主语应该是一“机构”。
