【题目】With the advent (到来,出现)of fast food chains from the West such as McDonald's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Pizza Hut, the Chinese are being introduced to a diet that markedly increases the death rate from certain diseases.

The main killers in North Americathe degenerative diseases such as heart attack and stroke as well as colon cancer, will become ways of death in this country if the Chinese do not act quickly and compete with these health-destroying food chains.

Scientific studies from all over the world show that a diet high in animal foodssuch as pork, beef, including sugar, white flour, white noodles and even white rice, undermines one's health. Deposits of animal fat cling to the walls of arteries, blocking the blood supply to various organs.

This causes diseases in almost every organbut in particular it damages two of the most vital ones, the heart and the brain.

Compare these problems with the excellent health one may enjoy if one consumes good Chinese food. The cook goes out every day, procures tastyfresh vegetables, then cooks them for just a few minutes so that their nutritional value is preserved and afterwards serves them in a most artistic and elegant fashion. Please cling to your traditional ways of eating. They are far superior to those of the West.

Certainly the fast food chains make lots of moneybut who wants to fill the pockets of a foreign food chain that proceeds to ruin the health of the Chinese people?

Another reason why Western fast food restaurants make money is that the food they serve, which comes from assembly lines, will not attract bugs or spoil easily.

How the Chinese could patronize (经常光顾)these fast food places when Chinese cook such delicious food, not just in this country but over the entire world, is beyond my comprehension.

Western restaurants are clean and tastefully decorated. Moreover, these restaurants do have "good service and an inviting dining atmosphere". However, Chinese food chains could do likewise if they would organize themselves as the Western chains do.

These lessons in management and decoration are the only ones worth learning from the invasion of this country by the Western fast food chains. In other words, only imitate the style of the restaurants' form.

Do not let the desire for money destroy the wonderful tradition that China has established in producing fantastically tasty as well as healthful food.

1 The following are fast food chains from the West EXCEPT ______ .

A. McDonald's B. Kentucky Fried Chicken

C. Pizza Hut D. Chinese restaurants

2 The underlined word" undermines" in the third paragraph may have the similar meaning with "______".

A. improves B. damages

C. affects D. strengthens

3 What will be worth learning from the Western fast food chains?

A. The content of the food.

B. The menus.

C. The lessons in management and decoration.

D. Shape or form of the food.

4 In the passage, the author thinks ______.

A. Chinese should learn everything from Western fast food restaurants.

B. Chinese should say no to Western food.

C. Western fast food restaurants offer healthy diets.

D. Chinese food doesn't contain enough nutrition.
