8.Today's modern life discourages people from taking time to prepare their own meals.Eating in the car and grabbing a quick bite in a restaurant are ever more popular ways of dining.It takes a little extra effort and time to cook your own food,but it's a worthwhile pursuit(追求)that can benefit your health,wallet and family.People across the country are waking up to the fact that the food offered by most fast food restaurants isn't particularly healthy.While these restaurants have made attempts lately to add healthier meals to their menus,it's still a far cry from a dish cooked with fresh ingredients and personal care.
Nutritionists who study what is called"the French paradox"-meaning the fact that French people have low obesity rates despite their diet containing lots of"unhealthy"ingredients such as eggs and butter---partially account for this circumstance by the fact that many French people use fresh ingredients.Taking time to eat at a leisurely pace also helps you get better nutrition and you are less likely to pack on the pounds.

分析 本文是说明文类的短文阅读,主要讲述的是针对现在很多人习惯在外面吃饭这一现象分析了在家做饭的一些好处.
解答 B A C A
25.B.考查推理判断.从第一段Eating in the car and grabbing a quick bite in a restaurant are ever more popular ways of dining.可知,现代生活节奏加快,人们多选择在外就餐,而在家做饭虽然费时费力,但却值得去做,因为这有许多好处.由此可以推断出,人们在家做饭不像以往那么普遍了,即外出就餐的人数增多.故选B.
26.A.考查词义猜测.从第二段的内容While these restaurants have made attempts lately to add healthier meals to their menus,it's still a far cry from a dish cooked with fresh ingredients and personal care.可知,虽然饭店努力往菜单上增加健康食品,但这依然不同于在家做饭,因为后者可以使用新鲜食材,而且可以精心烹饪,所以a far cry from的意思是"与…大不相同".同A项含义相近.故选A.
27.C.考查推理判断.从第三段第一句Nutritionists who study what is called"the French paradox"-meaning the fact that French people have low obesity rates despite their diet containing lots of"unhealthy"ingredients such as eggs and butter---partially account for this circumstance by the fact that many French people use fresh ingredients.可知,虽然法国人的饮食中含有大量不利于健康的鸡蛋、黄油等食材,但法国人的肥胖率却很低,而营养学家认为这源于法国人使用新鲜食材.故文中提及"法国悖论"是为了说明使用新鲜食材的重要性.故选C.
28.A.考查推理判断.从最后一段内容,尤其是"Many couples also find that preparing a meal together can be a romantic experience…get to know your family better"可知,最后一段讲的在家做饭的好处是能加强家人之间的联系.故选A.
