参考译文：《早安英国》的苏珊娜·里德习惯于每天早上在沙发上盘问嘉宾，但她在最新的角色中却大展厨艺——向家庭展示如何在预算紧张的情况下准备美味又营养的饭菜。
定位线索：题干“What do we know about Susanna Reid?”→答案句取自第1段“she is cooking up a storm in her latest role”；文中“latest role”对应选项B“a new programme”。
解析：题干问关于苏珊娜·里德我们了解到什么。答案句明确指出她“在最新的角色中”（latest role）展示如何烹饪，这与选项B“她开始了一个新节目”直接对应。选项A“她喜欢让嘉宾难堪”是对“grilling guests”的曲解，原文只是说她习惯盘问嘉宾，并非喜欢难堪；选项C“她不喜欢早起工作”无中生有；选项D“她家庭预算紧张”偷换概念，原文说的是节目主题是预算紧张，并非她家庭实际状况。

参考译文：《早安英国》的苏珊娜·里德习惯于每天早上在沙发上盘问嘉宾，但她在最新的角色中却大展厨艺——向家庭展示如何在预算紧张的情况下准备美味又营养的饭菜。…在《省钱：好食物》中，她每周拜访不同的家庭，并在厨师马特·特巴特的帮助下，提供关于如何减少食物浪费的顶级建议，同时准备每天每个家庭花费低于5英镑的食谱。…团队用更便宜但仍然美味的食谱改变了这个家庭漫长的周末庆祝活动。
定位线索：题干“What can be a suitable title for the text?”→答案句取自首段“preparing delicious and nutritious meals on a tight budget”、第2段“recipes for under £5 per family a day”、末段“less expensive but still tasty recipes”；文中“on a tight budget”“under £5”“less expensive”对应选项D“Cooking Well for Less”。
解析：题干问适合的标题。全文围绕苏珊娜和马特教家庭在预算有限的情况下烹饪美味食物，首段“tight budget”、第2段“under £5”、末段“less expensive”都强调“少花钱”，同时“delicious”“tasty”强调“烹饪好”，这与选项D“Cooking Well for Less”（少花钱做好饭）完全对应。选项A“通过聪明饮食保持健康”偏离主题，文章重点是省钱烹饪而非健康；选项B“平衡日常饮食”无中生有；选项C“让自己成为完美厨师”范围过大，文章并非教人成为厨师。
