例题分析:
People’s eating habits are strongly influenced by a number of factors besides taste. Cultural values, demographic characteristics, personal finances, and concern about the environment all help determine what you eat. Furthermore, advances in technology, laws and competition are factors in what foods are available to you. To the extent that U.S. and European consumers are influenced similarly by these factors, you would expect and, indeed, would find their eating habits to be remarkably similar. However, because the relative influence of many of these variables differs on the two sides of the Atlantic, U.S. diners and Europeans often find themselves eating different things.
One of the most significant factors that appears to account for differences is the variation in social values. Consumers in the United States, for example, have been interested in the health and fitmess aspects of their food for some time. This interest has resulted in a deluge of diet and other types of “lite” food on U.S. grocery shelves. European consumers, however, are just beginning to get interested in diet and “lite” foods. A recent sudy found both U.S. and European consumers primarily interested in the fat content of foods. After this commonality, however, the concerns of the two groups in the fat content of foods. After this commonality, however, the concerns of the two groups diverged. Europeans want (in descending order) freshness, vitamin and mineral content, and nutritional value while Americans look for foods low in salt, cholesterol, and sugar.
Glossary:
Upheaval: a big change in society or in family like which causes a lot of trouble, confusion, and worry in people’s lives

否定排除题基本介绍:
