二、阅读理解单项选择题(本大题共10分,共 1 小题,每小题 10 分)
In 1955, a man named Raymond Kroc entered a partnership with two brothers named McDonald. They opened a popular restaurant in
California which sold food that was easy to prepare and serve quickly. Hamburgers, French fries, and cold drinks were the main food there. Kroc opened similar eating places under the same name, \and they were an instant success. He later took over the company, and today it is one of the most famous and successful \America and the world.
Why was his idea so successful? Probably the most important reason was that this timing was right. In the 1950s, most married women stayed home to keep house and take care of their children. In the 1960s, many women returned to the workplace. This meant they had less time and energy to do housework and preparation of meals, so they relied more on \also have little time to spend in the kitchen. People living alone also depend on this type of food, since cooking for one is often more trouble than it is worth.
Fast-food is not part of the diet of all Americans. Another trend of the 1960s, sometimes called the back-to-nature movement influenced many people to avoid food that was packaged or processed. The
preference for natural foods continues to this day.From the success of Raymond Kroc''s fast-food business, we can say that social
economic trends influence where and what we eat.(1). \is more trouble than it is worth\
A. cooking for several people is worth more money
B. it is not necessary to take too much time to cook for one person C. there are more problems when one person cooks
D. there are a lot of housework and preparation to do when one person cooks
