(3)Fast food, as it turns out, isn’t quite as fast as it used to be. A new study finds that McDonald’s posted its slowest drive-through times since this survey was first conducted fifteen years ago. At McDonald’s, customers were spent on average three minutes and nine seconds from the time they placed their orders until they received their food. That’s about ten seconds more than the industry average and a lot slower than a decade ago, according to the study which was commissioned by QSR, an industry trade publication. And McDonald’s wasn’t alone in slowing down. Other chains also saw their drive-through performance slowing down. (4)Among the reasons for the slower service, today there are more choices on the menu, and the products themselves are more complex and take longer to prepare. Speed, of course, is essential to the drive-through experience, and drive-throughs are hugely important to chains such as McDonald’s, Burger King, and Taco Bell. Usually, the drive-through accounts for sixty to seventy percent of all business that goes through a fast food restaurant, notes Sam Ochers, editor of QSR. Of course, consumers also want their orders prepared correctly and on that score, Ochers says, accuracy is still really high.
Questions 3 and 4 are based on the news report you have just heard.
3. What is the news report mainly about?
4. What has slowed down McDonald’s drive-through service?
选项
A、Customers’ higher demands.
B、The inefficiency of employees.
C、Increased variety of products.
D、The rising number of customers.
答案
C
解析
浏览四个选项,从选项中的customers’higher demands,inefficiency of employees和increased variety of products等词可推测,此题与快餐行业上餐速度变慢的原因有关。题干问的是麦当劳上餐速度变慢的原因是什么。新闻中间部分提到,上餐速度变慢是因为如今菜单上菜品的种类更加丰富多样,而且产品本身更复杂,需要更长的准备时间,故答案为C。A项(顾客要求更高)、B项(雇员效率低)和D项(顾客人数增长)在新闻中均未提及,故排除。
