The hugely popular blog the Skint Foodie chronicles how Tony balances his love of good food with living on benefits.After bills,Tony has£60 a week to spend,£40 of which goes on food,but 10 years ago he was earning£130,000 a year working in corporate communications and eating at London's best restaurants at least twice a week.Then his marriage failed,his career burned out and his drinking became serious.“The community mental health team saved my life.And I felt like that again,to a certain degree,when people responded to the blog so well.It gave me the validation and confidence that I'd lost.But it's still a daybyday thing.”Now he's living in a council flat and fielding offers from literary agents.He's feeling positive,but he'll carry on blogging—not about eating as cheaply as you can—“there are so many people in a much worse state,with barely any money to spend on food”—but eating well on a budget.Here's his advice for economical foodies.41._Impulsive spending isn't an option,so plan your week's menu in advance,making shopping lists for your ingredients in their exact quantities.I have an Excel template for a week of breakfast,lunch and dinner.Stop laughing:it's not just cost effective but helps you balance your diet.It's also a good idea to shop daily instead of weekly,because,being human,you'll sometimes change your mind about what you fancy.42._This is where supermarkets and their anonymity come in handy.With them,there's not the same embarrassment as when buying one carrot in a little greengrocer.And if you plan properly,you'll know that you only need,say,350g of shin of beef and six rashers of bacon,not whatever weight is prepacked in the supermarket chiller.43._You may proudly claim to only have frozen peas in the freezer—that's not good enough.Mine is filled with leftovers,bread,stock,meat and fish.Planning ahead should eliminate wastage,but if you have surplus vegetables you'll do a vegetable soup,and all fruits threatening to“go off”will be cooked or juiced.44._Everyone says this,but it really is a top tip for frugal eaters.Shop at butchers,delis and fishsellers regularly,even for small things,and be super friendly.Soon you'll feel comfortable asking if they've any knuckles of ham for soups and stews,or beef bones,chicken carcasses and fish heads for stock which,more often than not,they'll let you have for free.45._You won't be eating out a lot,but save your pennies and once every few months treat yourself to a set lunch at a good restaurant—£1.75 a week for three months gives you£21—more than enough for a threecourse lunch at Michelinstarred Arbutus.It's£16.95 there—or£12.99 for a large pizza from Domino's:I know which I'd rather eat.43选?A.Shopkeepers are your friendsB.Remember to treat yourselfC.Stick to what you needD.Live like a peasantE.Balance your dietF.Planning is everythingG.Waste not,want not
选项
A.Shopkeepers are your friends
B.Remember to treat yourself
C.Stick to what you need
D.Live like a peasant
E.Balance your diet
F.Planning is everything
G.Waste not,want not
答案
G
解析
细节题【解析】第四段第二句的that's not good enough意为“这还不够”,属于语义上的隐性转折,因此本段重点在最后一句。Planning ahead should eliminate wastage,but if you…(提前计划好可以避免浪费,但是如果家里有多余的蔬菜,可以做成蔬菜汤,那些可能会坏掉的水果可以当成食材做饭或者榨成果汁。)but前表示避免浪费的一个方法即:提前做好计划,but后是更具体的方法即充分利用多余的食材,但but前后说的内容都是关于如何避免浪费的。因此比对备选项后,发现G项的waste和本段的wastage是同一单词的不同形式,而且是对but后内容的抽象总结描述。因此判断G项waste not,want not(不浪费就不匮乏)是正确的。
