【正确答案:A】
文章第三段第1句“But snap decisions in reaction to rapid stimuli aren't exclusive to the interpersonal realm.(对快速刺激因素的仓促决定并不仅限于人际关系范围。)下文用东京大学心理学家关于快餐商标的研究来表明人们对快餐商标的反应速度比一般阅读速度快。因为人们无意识地(unconsciously)将“快餐”与“速度”和“心急”联系在一起,并将这些冲动付诸行动。故A选项“仓促决定受联想影响”正确。
B选项“仓促决定不是无意识的”,与原文意思相反;C选项“仓促决定是危险的”,原文未提及;D选项“仓促决定并不冲动”,与原文意思相悖排除。

Customers of Eatsa, in the middle of the city's financial district, order their dishes on iPads, which are prepared by staff in a hidden kitchen and delivered to the fully automated “cubbies”. According to Tim Young, Eatsa's co-founder, the company is reinventing fast food by combining the speed and affordability of fast food with the delicious flavors and nutritious ingredients of premium fast casual. “By developing new technology to automate every aspect of the food experience, we are able to deliver a product with the best qualities of premium fast casual at a price point that is accessible to everyone.” The customers order their food using a virtual cashier, who retains details of previous purchases allowing tailored suggestions. When the food is ready, the dish is delivered to an individual glass door “cubby” which shows personalized graphics allowing the customer to quickly identify their own lunch.
