11、【简答题】Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topicFast Food. Your composition should be based on the Outline given below:
答案：Fast food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children andteenagers. Today, nothing is more representative of the fast pace of modern society than fastfood. There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it is quick and convenient. Go into afast food restaurant, and your food will be ready in a minute. You can satisfy your hungerinstantly. Precious time won't be wasted in waiting-in-line to order or waiting at your table foryour food to arrive. Second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean food, the excellentservice and the comfortable environment of the fast food restaurant.
However, I think that fast food isn't healthy enough because it does not compose abalanced diet and is low in nutrition. Doctors suggest that people should avoid eating toomuch fast food. Although home cooking is time-consuming and following washing-u ptiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body likes and needs.
解析：
快餐在中国越来越受欢迎，尤其是在儿童和青少年中。今天，没有什么比快餐更能代表现代社会的快节奏了。其受欢迎的原因有以下几点。首先，它是快速和方便。走进一家快餐店，你的食物马上就好了。就能立刻满足你的饥饿感。宝贵的时间不会浪费在排队点餐或在餐桌旁等待食物上桌。其次，它的受欢迎程度也归因于快餐店干净的食物，优质的服务和舒适的环境。
然而，我认为快餐不够健康，因为它不均衡的饮食和低营养。医生建议人们不要吃太多快餐。虽然在家做饭很费时，而且洗完后很烦人，但它提供了你的身体喜欢和需要的健康美味的食物。
