Transcript:

One fast food company claims to sell over seventy hamburgers every second. That's seventy a second. How long have we been talking for? And they have an average of sixty two million people going into their restaurants every day. That's sixty two million, more than the population of Great Britain.

Option 3: "They are clean, comfortable and easily accessible."

Explanation: The text explicitly states that fast food restaurants are 'so clean and comfortable' and are often the only places where young people and mothers with children can easily meet. This directly supports the option, making it a correct statement.

Option 1: "There are as important as cigarette selling companies."

Explanation: The text does mention that fast food companies are treated differently by the law compared to the cigarette industry, but it does not state that they are equally important. This option misinterprets the comparison made in the text.

Option 2: "They can spend more on rent as compared to coffee stores."

Explanation: The text indicates that fast food companies and international coffee stores can offer high rent, but it does not specify that fast food companies spend more on rent than coffee stores. This option presents an assumption not supported by the text.

Option 4: "Their products can be considered physically addictive."

Explanation: The text clearly states that the products sold by fast food companies are 'physically addictive and dangerous to the body.' This aligns perfectly with the option, confirming it as a correct statement.

Option 5: "An average fast food company sells seventy hamburgers every day."

Explanation: The text states that one fast food company claims to sell over seventy hamburgers every second, not every day. This significant difference in time frame makes the option incorrect.
