共用题干第三篇
"Clean your plate!"and"Be a member of the clean-plate club!"Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent or grandparent. Often,it's accompanied by an appeal:"Just think about those starving orphans in Africa!"Sure,we should be grateful for every bite of food. Unfortunately,many people in the US take too many bites.Instead of staying"clean the plate",perhaps we should save some food for tomorrow.
According to news reports,US restaurants are partly to blame for the growing bellies.A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer,with two to four times the amount recommended by the government,according to a USA Today story.Americans traditionally associate quantity with, value and most restaurants try to give them that.They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.
Barbara Rolls,a nutrition professor at Pennsylvania State University,told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s,the same time that the American waistline began to expand.
Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions.Now,apparently, some customers are calling for this too.The restaurant industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believe restaurants serve portions that are too large;23 percent had no opinion;20 percent disagreed.But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who can't afford fine dining still prefer large portions.Seventy percent of those earning at least ¥150,000 per year prefer smaller portions;but only 45 percent of those earning less than ¥25,000 want smaller.
It's not that working class Americans don't want to eat healthy.It's just that,after long hours at lowpaying jobs,getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal.They live from paycheck to paycheck,happy to save a little money for next year's Christmas presents.Which of the following is Not true of working class Americans?A:They work long hours.B:They live from paycheck to paycheck.C:They don't want to be healthy eaters.D:They want to save money for their children.
选项
Which of the following is Not true of working class Americans?
A:They work long hours.
B:They live from paycheck to paycheck.
C:They don't want to be healthy eaters.
D:They want to save money for their children.
答案
C
解析
文章第一段开头就讲了,美国父母会让孩子吃光盘子里的食物,不要浪费。因此只有选项C是正确的。
第二段告诉我们传统上美国人会把数量同价值联系在一起,也就是说量越大就越划算,因此饭店给顾客的饭菜量大。饭店宁愿让顾客抱怨饭菜给的过多也不愿让他们觉得饭菜过少。因此选项A是正确的。
文章第三段提到:芭芭拉·罗尔斯教授说20世纪70年代美国饭馆给的饭量开始增加,同时美国人的腰围也粗了。因此选项D是正确的。
文章第四段对调查的结果进行了详尽的解释,选项B、C、D的数据都不正确,只有选项A的表述是正确的。
选项C说“他们不想做吃的健康的人”,这一表述是错误的。文章最后一段明确讲了美国工人不是不想做吃得健康的人,他们只是工作强度大,觉得饭菜量少会不划算。因此选项C。
