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 year working in corporate communications and eating at London's best 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 life. 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 their anonymity come in handy. With them, there's not the same embarrassment as when buying one carrot in a little greengrocer. And if 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 prepacked 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 if 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 fishsellers regularly, even for small things, and be super friendly. Soon you'll feel comfortable asking if 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, they'll 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 threecourse lunch at Michelinstarred Arbutus. It's ￡16.95 there—or ￡12.99 for a large pizza from Domino's: I know which I'd rather eat.
Part B
41.【答案】F Planning is everything
【解析】段落首句談到“Impulsive spending isn’t an option, so plan your work’s menu in advance...”，其表達的含義是：沖動消費不是一個好的選擇，所以提前計劃你一周的菜單，為你所需材料的具體數量做一個購物清單。首句中出現了因果邏輯關聯詞so，而下文又沒有出現明顯轉折，因此首句是本段的中心句。文章進而提及作者為此專門做一個Excel表格，并且認為這樣做不僅花錢少并且有助于均衡飲食。顯然文章的中心在于首句談到的“plan”，而中心不是選項B表達的“balance your diet”，故答案為F。
42.【答案】E Stick to what you need
【解析】段落第二句話中的代詞“them”指代第一句中的“supermarkets and their anonymity”。該句通過這一指代順接第一句，表達了一個否定的含義，即你不需要在小販那里感到尷尬。緊接著第三句用肯定的語氣指出“if you plan properly, you’ll know that you only need... 350g of shin of beef... ”即如果你合理的規劃，你就會清楚知道你想要什么，比如你只需要350克牛肉。作者通過語義上層層遞進的方式指出了這一段的中心：你需要什么就買什么，要對你所需要購買的東西的分量要堅持。因此選項E為正確選項。
43.【答案】G Waste not, want not
【解析】本段內容首先談到“你可能驕傲的說冰箱里只有冷凍的青豆，但是這還不夠”。這句話中雖然沒有明顯的轉折詞，但在語義上屬于隱性轉折，因此段落的重點應該在后面。第二句提到“Mine is filled with...”，其中Mine等于my freezer，通過指代順接上一句話。接著第三句前半句指出“提前做好計劃可以避免浪費”，后半句具體陳述了怎樣避免浪費。其中“eliminate wastage”與選項G中的“waste not”構成同義替換。雖然該句中出現了planning, 但是本段的主要內容是談到對于剩余的食物要盡可能充分利用，從而避免浪費。所以選項G談到“不浪費，不愁缺”為正確選項。
44.【答案】C Shopkeepers are your friends
【解析】該段首句的句內出現轉折，重點在轉折之后。第一句but轉折之后提到“it really is a top tip”，即這真的是一個好的提議。那么首先要還原it所指代的內容。句前沒有提供信息，句后第二句提到“shop at butchers,...regularly, ..and be super friendly”。其中“be friendly”通過詞性轉換和選項C中的“are your friends”夠成同義替換。同時，根據就近指代原則，這也是it所指代的內容。最后一句通過具體的信息描述了購物時表現出友好的態度所帶來的好處：they will let you have for free(通常他們都會免費給你)，因此選項C為正確選項。
45.【答案】D Remember to treat yourself
【解析】該段首句句內出現轉折，重點在轉折之后。第一句but后提到“save your pennis and once every few months treat yourself to a set lunch”，其表達的含義是要節省錢，但可以每幾個月款待自己一次。而該句也是本段落的中心句。段落余下的信息都是在用數據來解釋這個道理。選項D中出現了“treat yourself”，屬于原詞復現。因此選項D為正確選項。
