People in every country enjoy this activity, There are so many different kinds of food in the world—Chinese food, Italian food, South American food, Indian food, and many others. It's fun to eat and compare, different types of cuisine, ltalian food is sometimes very spicy, but South American food is usually much spicier. Indian food can be the spiciest of all—sometimes it's so hot that it can make your mouth burn! But that's okay because then you can drink some good Italian or French wine to reduce the burning!
    Some wonderful food comes from the Eastern countries. Chinese food is popular in many parts of the world. Lots of people love Chinese style vegetables because they are so crispy. Because Chinese-style vegetables are usually cooked for a much shorter time, they are crisper than American-style vegetables. In fact, they are probably the crispest cooked vegetables you can find.
    Some people don't like American-style food. They think it is often less tasty and sometimes less nutritious than food in other countries. Americans spend nearly half their food dollars on meals away from home. They eat more "fast food", such as hamburgers, hot dogs, pizzas, canned and frozen food, for fast food takes a short time to prepare. Often, Americans feel they are too busy to spend a lot of time cooking. It's easier to pick up a pack of fried chicken on the way home from work or take the familiy out for pizzas or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long, hard day.
    Of course, in some other countries, like France, cooking is still an "art form". Some people believe that French cuisine is the best in the world.

【正确答案】 D
【答案解析】 根据短文内容,A、B、C项正确,但是不是文章的主旨,只是陈述文章中的某一个方面。
[参考译文] 每个人都喜欢吃东西。世界上有许许多多不同种类的食物:中国美食、意大利美食、南美美食、印第安美食等。品尝不同种类的美食是非常有趣的。意大利美食口味辛辣,一般来说南美美食口味更辣,印第安是各种菜系中最辣的,能辣的让人的嘴唇像是着火了。不过没关系。你可以喝点意大利或者法国啤酒来降降火。
   很多经典美食来自东方。中国食物在世界各地流行。很多人喜欢中式蔬菜的脆爽。之所以如此脆爽是因为中式蔬菜比美式蔬菜烹饪的时间短。事实上,中式蔬菜可能是世界上最脆的食物。
   一些人不喜欢美式食物。他们认为美式食物相对其他国家食物口感较差,缺少营养。美国人食物消费一半是花在肉类上的。他们是很多快餐,比如汉堡,热狗,披萨,灌装、冷冻食品。因为这些快餐花费时间少。美国人认为没时间烹饪。辛苦工作一天后在回家路上带着快餐吃或者全家到外面去吃披萨汉堡比开火做饭更便利。
   当然,在其他国家,像是法国,烹饪是一种艺术形式。很多人相信法国大餐是世界上最好吃的美食。当然也有人有不同意见。但是大部分国家的人认为法国美食是世界上最美味、准备最完美的食物。
