【答案解析】[解析] 本题考查对上下文语义的综合理解。insist on坚持，坚决要求；dwell on细想，详述；concentrate on集中，全神贯注于；stress on着重，强调。前文说到“with a combination”，指的是把节食和做运动结合起来。由上题可知后面的意思与前文相反，所以应该是说把注意力集中在其中一种方法上。故选C。
【正确答案】
C
【答案解析】[解析] 本题考查动宾搭配。develop发展，建立；combine结合；change改变；practice练习；combine常用于combine A with B/combine A and B结构，故应排除。此空后面所接宾语everything的指代对象是“饮食，生活习惯”，饮食和生活习惯只能是“改变”而不可能是“发展或者练习”。故选C。
