The line chart indicates that the number of meals of fast food and sit-down restaurant experienced some changes during the past several years. The number of meals of fast food increased slowly from 20 in 1970 to nearly 30 in 1980. From 1980 to 2000, it ascended rapidly from 30 to approximately 90. On the contrary, sit-down restaurant meals increased slowly from 20 in 1970 to roughly 50 in 2000.
What exactly contribute to this phenomenon? Reasons can be listed as follows: for one thing, with the pace of modern life quickening, people have less time to line up for restaurant meals, but fast food meals can save time for busy people. Additionally, some preferential policies have been issued to protect and encourage the rapid extension of fast food industry, thus the public can buy fast food at shops scattering around the city while diminishing numbers of people are willing to eat at sit-down restaurant.
On the basis of the discussion above, we may forecast that the number of fast food meals will continue to rise in the years to come. However, we should also take the detrimental impact of fast food into consideration. Do remember that fast food will lead to diseases such as heart attack, obesity and diabetes. [解析] 确定题型:图表题
