Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled "Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner." One reason was: "You'll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym," while another read: " ____36____ " With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle(微妙)competition.
So, how do you find a workout partner?
First of all, decide what you want from that person. ____37____ Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.

Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. ____39____
You and your partner will probably have different skills. ____40____ Over time, both of you will benefit — your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core(核心)of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.

衔接词=前后句里起衔接作用的词或短语。它要么指代前句中某个信息(this、that、these people、this book),要么表明上下句的逻辑关系(so、but、however、even、moreover)。 标红的原则:只标这一篇真正用得上的那个词——句内用的不算:本句里的 and、举例用的 such as、定语从句的 that,都不标;跟这五个空无关的句子里也不标。
② 情况一前后句有衔接词——衔接词定方向,再用前后句的语义确认。这一空是逻辑衔接词 · 选择(后句句首 Or)。
前句First of all, decide what you want from that person.
后句Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.
关键信息词decide what you want from that person(想清楚你想得到什么)Or do you just want(或者你只是想)a better athlete … just physically fit(想更强 vs 只想健康)前句说先想清楚你想从搭档身上得到什么,后句开口就是 Or do you just want…——两句在谈同一件事:你要的目标是哪一档。
③-1 收范围前句在谈先想清楚你想从这个搭档身上得到什么;后句开口就是 Or do you just want …——Or 连的是两个并列的选项,所以中间空的句子也得是个问句,和「只是想身体健康」构成一高一低两种目标。剩下的 7 项里,问句有 D、E 两项:D 问想在拿手项目上更强,E 问启事该怎么写。
② 情况二前后句没有衔接词——只读前句与后句各在说什么,推演中间缺哪一层意思。结构信号:前一条理由是 You’ll … 句式,这一条是 another read——中间空的句子里该是同一句式。
前句One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read: “
后句” With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle(微妙)competition.
关键信息词You’ll actually show up(你会真的去)another read(另一条写的是)increase your training effort(训练投入会增加)前句摆了两条理由的句式(一条是……另一条是……),后句说因为有微妙的竞争、训练投入会增加——两句在谈同一件事:有搭档的又一条好处。
③ 如何判断?前句把结构摆得很清楚:一条理由是 You’ll actually show up …,另一条是 another read:“____”——所以中间空的句子该是同一句式的另一条理由。后句接着说因为有种微妙的竞争,你的训练投入会增加。剩下的 6 项里,只有 C 对得上:句式与前一条理由一致,work harder 被后句的 increase your training effort 接住,原因就是那句 subtle competition;A 讲第一次见面会尴尬、B 讲住得近、E 是问句、F 讲接受差异、G 讲启事该写什么,都不是这一条理由。因此,选 C。
选定C · You'll work harder if you train with someone else.
④ 补段义第1段:杂志列出感谢健身搭档的理由——有人等你就会去,有人一起练会更拼
⑤ 全文排除
条件1 现在清楚全文的主题了吗?
答:清楚,全文讲的是怎样找个健身搭档。注:如果还不清楚,就不要做排除的判断。
条件2 剩下的选项里有没有哪个在全篇找不到位置?
答:选项 A 讲的是「第一次见面可能会有点尴尬」,可全文五个段分别落在感谢搭档的理由、你想得到什么、位置要求、启事写什么、技能不同怎么相处上,没有一段讲见面。因此,选项 A 被排除,从下一空起不再进选项。
前句You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a useful response.
后句If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.
关键信息词posting … probably won’t result in a useful response(发社交媒体没什么用)must belong to the same gym(必须是同一家健身房)live close by(住得近)前句说在社交媒体上发需求大概没用,后句说如果要在健身房练、那人必须同一家——两句在谈同一件事:找人的地理范围。
③ 如何判断?前句在谈在社交媒体上发需求大概没什么用;后句说如果要在健身房练,那人必须是同一家健身房的。前后都在说找人的地理范围,所以中间空的句子也该是这个方向。剩下的 4 项里,只有 B 是:住得近才谈得上后句的 must belong to the same gym,也解释了为什么发社交媒体没什么用;E 是问句、放在这里没有下文回答它,F 讲接受差异是最后一段的事,G 讲启事该写什么是下一段段末那句。因此,选 B。
选定B · A workout partner usually needs to live close by.
② 情况二前后句没有衔接词——只读前句与后句各在说什么,推演中间缺哪一层意思。前句里有 different skills。
前句You and your partner will probably have different skills.
后句Over time, both of you will benefit — your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit.
关键信息词have different skills(技能不一样)both of you will benefit(双方都会有长进)accept your differences(接受彼此的差异)前句说你和搭档的技能大概不一样,后句说久而久之双方都会有长进——两句在谈同一件事:怎么对待这个不一样。
③ 如何判断?前句在谈你和搭档的技能大概不一样;后句说久而久之双方都会有长进——他能举更重,你能更健康。中间缺的是一句「那怎么对待这个不一样」,后面的双赢才接得上。剩下的 3 项里,只有 F 说的是这个:differences 直接指代前句的 different skills,learn to work with each other 被后句的 both of you will benefit 接住;E 是问句、放在这里没有下文回答它,G 讲启事该写什么。因此,选 F。
选定F · Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.
前句Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number.
后句(本段到此结束,下段转入两人技能不同怎么相处)
关键信息词what kind of training … how many days(训练内容、每周几天、每次几小时)Her notice included(她的启事里写了)such information(这些信息)前句列了一张启事里写了什么,本段到此为止——要一句把这一长串概括起来的话。
③ 如何判断?前句在谈一张启事里写了什么:训练内容、每周几天、每次几小时、年龄、喜欢的项目、电话号码;空在本段最后一句,要把这一长串概括成一句,说明找搭档的启事该写些什么。剩下的 2 项里,只有 G 说的是这个:such information 正指代前面那一长串,should include 又把这一段收住;E 是个问句,可空在段末,本段已经结束、下段讲的是技能不同,没有任何下文来回答它——段末要的是总结,不是提问。因此,选 G。
选定G · Any notice for a training partner should include such information.
④ 补段义第4段:找搭档的启事该写清训练内容、频次、时长、年龄和联系方式——五段段义到此齐了
⑤ 全文排除
条件1 现在清楚全文的主题了吗?
答:清楚,全文讲的是怎样找个健身搭档。注:如果还不清楚,就不要做排除的判断。
条件2 剩下的选项里有没有哪个在全篇找不到位置?
答:选项 E 是个问句(启事该怎么写),可它前面那一段已经写完、后面那一段讲的是技能不同,全篇没有一处需要回答这个问句,段末要的是总结不是提问。因此,选项 E 被排除,从下一空起不再进选项。
本篇两个多余项到此都划完了,后面的空不再需要做全文排除。
