    Why has the McDonald’s model proven so irresistible? Eating fast food at McDonald’s has certainly become a "sign" that, among other things, one is in tune with the contemporary lifestyle. There’s also a kind of magic or【C1】________associated with such food and their settings. However, what will be focused on here are the four alluring dimensions that lie at the【C2】________of the success of this model.
    In【C3】________, McDonald’s has succeeded because it offers consumers, workers, and managers efficiency, calculability, predictability and control.
    One important element of McDonald’s success is efficiency, or the optimum【C4】________for getting from one point to another. For consumers, McDonald’s offers the best available way to get from being hungry to being full. In a society where both parents are likely to work or where a single parent is【C5】________to raise children on her own, efficiently satisfying hunger is very attractive.
    Calculability is an emphasis on the quantitative aspects of products sold (portion size, cost) and services offered (the time it takes to get the product). In McDonaldized systems, quantity has become equivalent to quality; a lot of something, or the quick【C6】________of it, means it must be good.
    McDonald’s also offers predictability, the【C7】________that products and services will be the same over time and in all locales. The Egg McMuffin in New York will be【C8】________to those in Chicago and Los Angeles. Also those eaten next week or next year will be the same as those eaten today.
    The fourth element in McDonald’s success, control, is【C9】________over the people who enter the world of McDonald’s. Lines, limited menus, and【C10】________options all lead diners to do what management wishes them to do—eat quickly and leave.
【C10】
选项
答案F
解析 形容词辨析题。分析句子结构可知，空格位于句子的主语Lines，limited menus，and options中，and连接三个并列的主语Lines、limited menus和________options，因此空格处应该填入一个形容词，对名词options进行修饰限定，并且，该名词短语与Lines和limited menus形成并列关系。本段讲述了麦当劳如何通过环境设定对顾客进行控制：排队、有限的菜单和________的选择，这些都会限制顾客的行为，使他们能实现麦当劳餐厅的期望，即快点吃完，然后离开。备选形容词中，与limited意思相似的只有few“很少的，几乎没有的”，故F为答案。
