The hugely popular blog the Skint Foodie chronicles how Tony balances his love of good food with living on benefits. After bills, Tony has £60 a week to spend, £40 of which goes on food, but 10 years ago he was earning £130,000 a I year working in corporate communications and eating at London’s betft restaurants’" at least twice a week. Then his marriage failed, his career burned out and his drinking became serious. "The community mental health team saved my li.fe. And I felt like that again, to a certain degree, when people responded to the blog so well. It gave me the validation and confidence that I’d lost. But it’s still a day-by-day thing." Now he’s living in a council flat and fielding offers from literary agents. He’s feeling positive, but he’ll carry on blogging - not about eating as cheaply as you can - "there are so many people in a much worse state, with barely any money to spend on food" - but eating well on a budget. Here’s his advice for economical foodies.
41._____________________
Impulsive spending isn’t an option, so plan your week’s menu in advance, making shopping lists for your ingredients in their exact quantities. I have an Excel template for a week of breakfast, lunch and dinner. Stop laughing: it’s not just cost effective but helps you balance your diet. It’s also a good idea to shop daily instead of weekly, because, being-human, you’ll sometimes change your mind about what you fancy.
42____________________________________________________________
This is where supermarkets and thci; anonymity come in handy. With them, there’s not the same embarrassment as when buying one carrot in a little greengrocer. And i.f you plan properly, you’ll know that you only need, say, 350g
of shin of beef and six rashers of bacon, not whatever weight is pre-packed in the supermarket chiller.
43_________
You may proudly claim to only have frozen peas in the freezer - that’s not good enough. Mine is filled with leftovers, bread, stock, meat and fish. Planning ahead should eliminate wastage, but i.f you have surplus vegetables you’ll do a vegetable soup, and all fruits threatening to "go off’ will be cooked or juiced.
44___________________________________
Everyone says this, but it really is a top tip for frugal eaters. Shop at butchers, delis and fish-sellers regularly, even for small things, and be super friendly. Soon you’ll feel comfortable asking i.f they’ve any knuckles of ham for soups and stews, or beef bones, chicken carcasses and fish heads for stock which, more often than not, Theyil let you have for free.
45__________________
You won’t be eating out a lot, but save your pennies and once every few months treat yourself to a set lunch at a good restaurant - £1.75 a week for three months gives you £21 - more than" enough for a three-course lunch at
Michelin-starred Arbutus. It’s £16.95 there - or £12.99 for a large pizza from Domino’s: I know which I’d rather eat.

【答案详解】
2013年新题型不出所料,考到了《大纲》里出现的,但过去三年里还没有考到过的小标题对应题。根据大纲要求,小标题对应题考查的是考生总结信息、理解信息的能力。其解题方法类似于阅读A 部分的主旨大意题,只是阅读A要求概括的是文章的主旨,而此种题型要求概括的是段落大意。那么,解题的时候,考生应该抓住的是段落的主旨,须关注主旨句常常出现的位置,即段落的首尾句,那么解题时必将事半功倍。
41.[正确答案]: F
[答案解析] 本段第一句后半句出现了结论性的词so,因此是做题时需关注的重点。这句话意为“因此要提前计划好你每周的食谱”医.学 全在.线,提供
www.med126.com。后面第二句第三句都用作者自己的例子来论证提前计划的好处,故能判断出第一句为本段主题句。选项F planning is everything, 计划最重要,能够概括本段大意,故为正确答案。
42. [正确答案]: E
[答案解析] 本段最后一句话“如果你安排合理,就能知道你需要的只是,比如350克牛胫骨和6片培根,而不是超市冷柜里里重量已定的预先包装好的东西”也就是说,提前计划好的话,可以按照自己预想的分量购买自己需要的食品。故只有E 选项 stick to what you need 符合本段的主题,为正确选项。
43. [正确答案]: G
[答案解析] 本段第一句说“你可能会很骄傲的宣称你冰箱里剩下的只有冷冻的
豌豆了,这并不很好。”最后一句话说“如果你有多余的蔬菜,可以做个蔬菜汤, 快要坏掉的水果也可以做成菜或者榨成汁”。因此本段的主旨在于虽然计划很重要,但多余的东西也并不会被浪费掉,G 选项 waste not, want not 与本段的主旨一致,为正确答案。
44. [正确答案]: C
[答案解析] 本段首句说 “对节俭的人来说,这是最好的小建议”。随后提到去小卖店买东西的时候要特别友好,这样的话很快你就可以很自在的询问他们是否有一些零零碎碎的你需要的食材,而且很可能都是免费的。故C 选项Shopkeepers are your friends 符合本段主旨,为正确答案。
45. [正确答案]: D
[答案解析] 本段首句说“你不经常出去吃饭, 但每隔几个月要用的钱去个好的饭店好好吃顿午餐”。因此选项D Remember to treat yourself 是本题的正确答案。
