This can be seen as clear (29) of the appeal of Fine Fitness.
Ms Collier admitted that as there were (30) too many companies competing with oneanother; there would almost certainly be (31) in the health-and-fitness-club sector of themarket She predicted that, within a relatively short time, there might be only about threemajor companies still in (32).However, she declined to say which these were likely to be.
Profits rose by £6.3 million, although there was a fall in gross margins from 31 per cent to28.6 per cent because of higher insurance premiums, extra management costs and start-upexpenses for the company's new (33) in Spain.

>>>參考答案及解析<<<
文章介紹了一個(gè)經(jīng)營(yíng)健康俱樂部的公司的情況，依舊是形勢(shì)喜人。
19題，一句話包含三個(gè)空，聯(lián)系在一起做。昨天開會(huì)，宣布了一系列結(jié)果。報(bào)告稅前收益增長(zhǎng)了38%，公司并沒有經(jīng)歷它的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手所暴露的問題。19題選report，20題experienced，21題，revealed by itsrival，被競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手暴露的問題。
22題，remains strong保持強(qiáng)勁;單看單詞的意思，貌似keep也可以(不過說實(shí)話，如果不是有同學(xué)提醒，我壓根想不到會(huì)填keep)聯(lián)系此句上下文，提到了在對(duì)手出現(xiàn)問題時(shí)這個(gè)公司表現(xiàn)依然強(qiáng)勁remain在英文詞典的解釋是：continue to exist, especially after other similar or related people or things haveceased to exist 在相似或者相關(guān)人和事出現(xiàn)狀況時(shí)仍然存在，所以，remain更符合這個(gè)題目的條件
23題，on track 步入正軌。公司正在實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)的正道上。這個(gè)詞在其他完型也出現(xiàn)過，不過不是正確答案。
24題，slow down放緩，固定用法。經(jīng)濟(jì)放緩。
25題，bring to，使總數(shù)達(dá)到51，這個(gè)題怕是要靠語感。put肯定不對(duì)，get to到達(dá)，mount在這里用法不對(duì)。
26題，proved to be證明是，固定用法
27題，這里填入的詞要和前文對(duì)照，前面說新開了12家新的俱樂部，這里的空格前有個(gè)even和more，所以應(yīng)該是填入與new相對(duì)應(yīng)的詞。established是已確立的(If you use established to describesomething such as an organization, you mean that it is officially recognized or generallyapproved of because it has existed for a long time. )
28題，retention rate保留率，專有名詞(Retained earnings divided by total after-tax earnings,expressed as a percentage)，指公司稅后收益所保留的那一部分。
29題，公司吸引力的證據(jù)。clear evidence明顯的證據(jù)。不選sign，sign只是跡象。
30題，simply修飾too many從用法和意思上都對(duì)，在這里就是表強(qiáng)調(diào)的，意思是公司太多了。
31題，consolidation強(qiáng)化、合并(To consolidate a number of small groups or firms means tomake them into one large organization.)，有很多的公司相互競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，所以需要進(jìn)行一個(gè)整合。這是商英里的固定說法。
32題，in business在經(jīng)營(yíng)。是說很快這個(gè)市場(chǎng)上的公司會(huì)淘汰的只剩下三個(gè)。
33題，理解了venture的意思就不難做出選擇，在這里是指商業(yè)冒險(xiǎn)，也是商英地道說法。公司要在西班牙進(jìn)行一些投機(jī)活動(dòng)，因此增加了額外的管理費(fèi)用。
