   Personal Finance Advice Applied to Fitness and Health
   With the New Year upon us and the resolutions starting to fly around, I’m planning my annual fitness goals. As I review my plans for last year, I am also looking at my personal finance goals and I see some potential to apply personal finance principles to my fitness and health goals. Here are some personal finance principles which can be used in your fitness and health goals.
   【R1】______
   I often use a "progress bar" to keep tabs on my progress towards various goals. As I save a certain amount, I fill in a bit of a progress bar, after I lose a pound, I fill in a bit of another bar. This tool really helps me to see how every little bit contributes to a bigger goal. A progress sheet provides you with a good opportunity to celebrate the little wins along the way to meet your fitness goal. Achieving and celebrating the little goals will help keep you motivated to reach the big goal.
   【R2】______
   With personal finance, I often use images of specific goals to motivate myself—for a long time, I used a picture of a house to keep on track. With dieting, I used a photograph taken of me at my heaviest—every time I see it, I feel sad and it builds my resolve to stay on task with my dieting choices. Such indications are a key part to any goal: something you can focus on to help you reach your goal.
   【R3】______
   When you’re focused on improving your personal finances, all of the little decisions you make each day contribute to good personal financial health. If you decide to skip that mocha at Starbucks and drink a bottle of water, you’re making a solid choice towards good financial health. In fitness, you can apply this same principle. This usually means thinking about and researching the moves you make. I’ve started investigating the nutritional content of food more carefully, entering into a new healthy relationship with food. I’m also learning to cut down a bit on the excesses. Sounds like good financial planning, doesn’t it?
   【R4】______
   My real weaknesses for food are twofold: big, monstrous, juicy hamburgers and Ben and Jerry’s Americone Dream ice cream. I allow myself one or the other once a week now and avoid the temptation for the rest, knowing that I will either have a grilled burger on Saturday evening or some delicious ice cream on Sunday. This is very similar to how I plan and prepare for frivolous purchases—I plan ahead for them and am thus much more able to behave well knowing that I’m doing it the right way.
   【R5】______
   Not only do you get the immediate benefit of dropped calories, but you get the "interest" of being in better condition when you need it (better oxygenation and better lung capacity). What you devote to exercise doesn’t always pay off immediately, but if you’re thinking long term on your investment you will see the benefits return in weight loss, better sleep, and a more robust life.
【R2】
选项
答案G
解析 本段说到作者如何帮助自己在实现目标的过程始终保持专注——理财方面，用房子的照片来提醒自己；实行饮食节制时，用自己最胖时的照片来激励自己坚定节食。这里的照片即看得见的提示物(visual reminders)，而它们起到的作用就是让自己保持专注于为实现目标而努力，G中的stay on focus概括了文中keep on track、builds my resolve to stay on task以及focus on等所表达的意思，故选G。
