Question

【題目】

Have you ever eaten at a restaurant that seizes Western food？If so，do you remember what the menu looked like？Western restaurant menus are quite different from Chinese restaurant menus．But how are they different？

Most Western restaurant menus do not have as many p 【1】as Chinese ones do．In some fancy Western restaurants，the menus might not have any pictures at all．

But most Western menus show a list of ingredients for each dish．

If you order a burger，the menu might tell you that the burger has cheese，ketchup and mustard（芥末）．The menu can also tell you how the food is cooked﹣﹣﹣for example， w【2】it is fried or steamed．

Western restaurants use many different methods to design their menus and make them more a【3】．In fact，there is a whole industry called "menu engineering"，according to theBBC．Menu engineers are experts at designing menus．Their menus can i【4】sales and influence customers' thoughts．

A well﹣designed menu can encourage customers to eat certain dishes．It can e【5】make them believe that your restaurant's food is of higher quality，thought they might haven't eaten the food．

For example，using descriptive （描述性的）words s【6】"juicy "or" cheesy" can help dishes sell better．Instead of just writing "steak" in their menu，a restaurant might write "sizzling steak"．This makes the steak sound more delicious．

Also，it is k【7】 that people pay the most attention to items placed at the top of a page．

This is the best place for dishes that you want to promote．As you can see，menus are not just simple lists of food!

【解析】

文章大意：你曾經(jīng)在一家吃西餐的餐館吃過嗎？如果有，你還記得菜單是什么樣子的嗎？西餐廳的菜單和中餐館的菜單很不一樣，但它們有什么不同呢？ 本文講述了中餐菜單和西餐菜單的區(qū)別。

【1】考查名詞。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"大多數(shù)西方餐館的菜單上的圖片不如中國的多"，"圖片"的英文是 picture，前面有many，后面名詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式，所以答案是：pictures。

【2】考查介詞。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"菜單還可以告訴你食物是如何煮熟的﹣﹣例如，它是油炸還是蒸熟"，"是…還是…"的英文是 whether…or…，所以答案是：whether。

【3】考查形容詞。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"西餐廳使用許多不同的方法來設(shè)計他們的菜單，使他們更有吸引力"，"有吸引力的"的英文是attractive，用形容詞的比較級做賓補，所以答案是：attractive。

【4】考查動詞。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"他們的菜單可以增加銷售，影響顧客的想法"，"增加"的英文是 increase，前面有情態(tài)動詞，后面用動詞原形，所以答案是：increase。

【5】考查副詞。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"它甚至可以讓他們相信你的餐廳的食物質(zhì)量更高，因為他們可能還沒吃過"，"甚至"的英文是 even，副詞修飾動詞，所以答案是：even。

【6】考查介詞短語。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"使用描述性的單詞，例如"juicy"或"cheesy"能夠幫助菜賣得更好"，"例如"的英文是 such as，所以答案是：such as。

【7】考查形容詞。根據(jù)首字母提示，結(jié)合語境推測句意是"把人們最關(guān)注的是放在頁面頂部的物品是好的"，"好的"的英文是 kind，形容詞做表語，所以答案是：kind。
