　　[A] positive[B] additional[C] duration[D] effectivee[E] shed [F] physical

　　[G] food [H] functions [I] participated [J] rely [K] cut [L] repeatedly

　　[M] uses [N] little [O] obvious

　　答案与解析：

　　47. E 该空需填入动词原形，结合原意“和大多数美国人一梯状，你(的体重)可能也有几磅需要________”可知，E(去除)符合文意。

　　48. F 结合常识和下文可知，F符合文意。

　　49. A 结合句意“令人惊奇的是，为了看到长期________效果你不必节食或常去健身馆”，可知空格处需填一形容词，初选后留下A、D。由于下文只是讲到运动会帮助减肥，但并未说明它的效果明显，所以此处宜选用意思上更宽泛的positive(正面的，有效的)。

　　50. H 下文举例的breathing, blood circulation and digestion都是人体的基本功能，且其后的functioning已给出了提示，故H符合文意。

　　51. B 该空需填入形容词，结合常识和句意“任何时候只要你活动，你都需要________能量”来看选项，B(额外的)符合文意。

　　52. C 该句句意为“采用这两种能量消耗来源中的哪一种取决于你活动的强度和________”，结合下文提到的...low to moderately intense and of long duration...可知C符合文意。

　　53. J 结合句意“(活动的)强度越低，身体越________于脂肪作为其燃料”，该空应填入能和on搭配的动词，J符合文意。

　　54. D 结合常识可知，有氧运动是有效的减肥方式，选项中D符合文意。

　　55. L 该空需填入副词，选项中只有L和N可作副词，由下文提到的walking, running, swimming, dancing, and jumping等可推知在这些有氧运动中四肢的活动是反复的，故排除N。

　　56. I 该空需填入动词的过去分词，结合句意“如果你已经________高强度、爆发性的运动，你会燃烧更多的脂肪”可知I符合文意。
