Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】B

【3】A

【解析】

【1】推理判断题。从第一段的…have neither the desire nor the time to cook for themselves…（既没有愿望也没有时间为他自己做饭）可以知道职业女性忙，对做饭不感兴趣，因此C项正确。

【2】推理判断题。橘汁和橘汁饮料的区别在第二段中曾经盘谈到过，寄橘汁饮料…contains only a small percentage of real juice---the rest is largely colored sugar water (….只含很少比例的真正橘汁——其他大都是加了色素的糖水)。因此，相对而言，橘汁是“natural,nutritious and prepared from oranges”（天然的

有营养的、直接从橘子中来的饮品）

【3】细节理解题。A fruitless search 意思为“没有结果的努力”，文中第四段谈到试图寻找一种可以包治百病，又能使你成为超人的食谱是徒劳的。因此，a fruitless search 表示“毫无结果的努力”。 Fruitless 的隐身意义为“没有结果的，徒劳的”。
