2023高考英语全国乙卷 阅读理解C 深度解读
C
What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists.
It's thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meal sand becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain's consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.
According to a new study from market analysts, 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food. Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients(配料)than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before. One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking. The UK's obsession(痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling.Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before. With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it's no longer"uncool"for boys to like cooking.
28.What do people usually think of British food?
A.It is simple and plain.
B.It is rich in nutrition.
C. It lacks authentic tastes.
D. It deserves a high reputation.
29.Which best describes cookery programmes on British TV?
A.Authoritative. B. Creative.
C.Profitable. D.Influential.
30.Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now?
A.20%. B.24%. C.25% D.33%.
31.What might the author continue talking about?
A. The art of cooking in other countries.
