a membership in a
health club is a poor investment.

Answer: Option D
Explanation:
By stating that fitness walking does not
require a commute to a health club, the author stresses the convenience of this
form of exercise. The paragraph also states that fitness walking will result in
a good workout. Choice a is incorrect because no comparison to weight lifting
is made. Choice b may seem like a logical answer, but the paragraph only refers
to people who are fitness walkers, so for others, a health club might be a good
investment. Choice c is not in the passage. Although choice e seems logical,
the paragraph does not indicate that the wrong shoes will produce major
injuries.
