Why are visitors to Britain always complaining about English food?
Visitors to Britain are always complaining about English food. But they do not really know what they are talking about because they rarely get a chance to eat it. Most of the restaurants in large towns have foreign owners and serve foreign food.
When visitors are invited to eat in an English home, their hosts often feel they must offer them something foreign and exotic. Those of us who do know English food are a-ware that at its best it can be really very good. On the other hand it is true to say that sometimes it is terrible. Part of the problem is that we are not really interested in food-we eat to live, we do not live 1o eat. So we don’t generally spend the necessary time and effort needed to cook really good meals. We prefer food that is simple and easy to cook, or ready prepared food which only needs heating up before eating. You can find the best English food in the country away from the large towns, where life is slower and people are not in such a hurry. But, of course, most visitors come to London. They come because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing. They do not come because of food, so why should they complain about it?
选项
A、Because the foods they eat are all ready prepared.
B、Because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing.
C、Because they stay in Britain only for a few days.
D、Because they only stay in large towns.
答案
D
解析
录音介绍说,地道的英国菜只有在乡下才吃得到,而来宾们往往想来购物和游览,很少去乡下,显然D项内容最确切,应为正确答案。
