niffing(闻)andlookingatittodeterminewhetherit’sstillsafeforconsumption.(这背后的想法是阻止人们根据一个日期就扔掉牛奶，而不是闻和看它是否仍然可以安全食用。)”第二段“Thefactisthatsignificantamountsoffoodgetwastedeveryyearbypeopleblindlyfollowingexpirationdates,ratherthantheirsenses.Whatmakesmattersworseisthatmostdatesdon’tmeanmuch,anyway.(事实是，每年有大量的食物被浪费是因为人们盲目地遵循保质期，而不是他们的感官。更糟糕的是，大多数日期都没有什么意义。)可知，为了减少食物浪费，莫里森公司将在大部分牛奶上去掉“食用截止日期”。故选A。【25题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Ipaycloseattentiontobothpackagingandprice.(我非常注意包装和价格。)”可知，作者的消费习惯是她更关心价格。故选B。【26题详解】推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“ThehandfuloftimesIhavelookedatexpirationdateshavebeenforshort-liveditemslikeprepackagedsaladgreens.WhatI’vefound,however,isthatthedatesmeanlittle.Evenapackagethatclaimstobefreshcanstillhaverottenyellowleavesatthebottom,whichturnsmeoff.(我看过的几次保质期都是预先包装的蔬菜沙拉等短期食品。然而，我发现，日期意义不大。即使是号称新鲜的包装，底部也可能有腐烂的黄叶，这让我很反感。)”可推知，作者举了一个“预先包装的蔬菜沙拉”的例子来强调保质期的无用性。故选C。【27题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Earlierthismonth,BritishsupermarketchainMorrisonsannouncedthatitwouldberemoving“useby”datesonmostofitsmilk.(本月早些时候，英国连锁超市莫里森(Morrisons)宣布，将在大部分牛奶中去掉“食用日期”。)”和第二段“Thefactisthatsignificantamountsoffoodgetwastedeveryyearbypeopleblindlyfollowingexpirationdates,ratherthantheirsenses.Whatmakesmattersworseisthatmostdatesdon’tmeanmuch,anyway.(事实是，每年有大量的食物被浪费是因为人们盲目地遵循保质期，而不是他们的感官。更糟糕的是，大多数日期都没有什么意义。)”以及下文中作者通过自己消费习惯
