    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.
    【B11】_______________________________________________
    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.
    【B12】_______________________________________________
    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.
    【B13】_______________________________________________
    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?
    【B14】_______________________________________________
    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.
    【B15】______________________________________________
    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.
【B15】

选项

答案C

解析 根据本段出现的exercise、benefit、interest以及investment等字眼,可大致判断C为答案。本段谈到做运动从短期和长期来看分别都能带来什么样的回报,这就类似于一项投资。而且最后一句也提到your investment,根据上下文,这里的investment即指前面说的exercise。故确定本题选C。
