【答案】
1) ￡229.

【原文】
UK residents spend an average ￡229 a year on food consumed in transit, the highest in Europe, the research group Datamonitor says. In contrast, Spanish people spend only ￡56 a year, while Italians spend ￡128 a year on average.
The reports author says the difference is due to the greater amount of time Britons spend at work and commuting. In the UK people spend on average 48 minutes a day traveling to and from work. The Spanish and Italians spend 34 and 24 minutes respectively.
Attitudes towards food are also important, the study claims.
There are a lot of people in the UK who view most of their meals as refueling, says Lawrence Gould, the reports author.
But it is not all bad, he adds.
One thing emerging is a greater demand for higher quality food, even if it is food-on-the-go, says Mr. Gould.
Traditional fast food such as burgers and chips are now competing with low-fat alternatives. While the food may have been eaten in transit, people are increasingly being offered healthy fare: from sushi to organic salads.
