6 Vegetables and chicken cosplayt more when they have been cut into pieces by someone other than the one who buys it. （该句句意与A最呼应）A family should expect to pay more when several TV dinners are taken home from the store. These are fully3 cooked meals, consisting of meat, vegetables, and sometimes desert, all arranged on a metal dish. The dish is put into the oven and heated while the housewife is doing something else. Such a convenience cosplayts money. Thus, as economists point out: Some of the basic reasons for widening food price spreads are easily traceable to the increasing use of convenience foods, which transfer much of the time and work of meal preparation from the kitchen to the food processors plant.（该结构含义也是与A最呼应）
剖析：段落中无明显重复出现的词汇/短语，但在段落末尾的句子中发现了A中的核心词（Convenience），但包括该句的句子结构好像较复杂，所以借用段首句句意解题，判断答案为A。
