77、omers to stay and order that extra round:put on some Mozart(莫扎特)可知,要想让客人呆的时间更长应该播放莫扎特等古典音乐而不是流行音乐。Particular scents also have an effect:diners who got the scent of lavender(薰 高考资源网（）您身边的高考专家 高考资源网版权所有，侵权必究！衣草)stayed longer and spent more than those who smelled lemon,or no scent.引入薰衣草香而不是柠檬香,而 D 项文章没

78、有提及,所以用排除方法可以选 A。3.主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段第一句 Meanwhile,things that you might expect to discourage spendingbad tables,crowding,high prices dont necessarily.可知,你认为可能会影响人们消费的因素如:不好的桌子,拥挤以及高价等不一定会真影响人们的消费,然后依次举例进行了证明,所以本段主要讲的是人们对于饭店的几个误解,故选 D。点睛:概括主旨的方法是:先看首尾或各段开头再看全文找主题句,若无明显主题句,就通过关键词句来概括(如议论文中寻找表达作者观点态度的词句,记
