【解析】

试题分析：本文是以如何锻炼马拉松为话题，提到从长期的角度说应该做到精心准备，循序渐进。这样才能达到锻炼的目的。

1.C 考查对上下文的理解。上文提到跑马拉松，下文说买一双合脚的鞋子。所以这里应该是前的准备工作。故选C。

2.E考查对上下文的理解。上文提到：穿着鞋走走路以确保合适，下文提到跑。所以这里应该说如果穿着的感觉很好，就可以跑了。故选E。

3.A考查对上下文的理解。上文提到练习的第一周怎么做，下文提到第二周，所以这里应该是练习一周后稍做休息，一周是6天，故选A。

4.D考查对上下文的理解。这里在讨论逐渐加长跑步的距离，每天增加一定的距离才合理，故选D。

5.G考查对上下文的理解。最后是提速。在规定的距离内如何训练自己跑得快。这样才能参加比赛。故选G。
