The ancient Aztecs venerated the cacao tree and used its beans as a form of currency. They【C1】______the tree as a source of strength and wealth and【C2】______their god Quetzalcoatl its guardian. The Aztecs discovered that by crushing the beans into a paste and adding spices, they could make a【C3】______and nourishing drink. This drink would have been very bitter,【C4】______our chocolate drinks today. 16th century European explorers brought the drink back from their【C5】______, added sweeter flavourings, and soon it was【C6】______as an expensive luxury.
In the 1800s, solid chocolate became popular,【C7】______the invention of moulding processes.【C8】______grinders crushed cocoa beans to a【C9】______powder that could be heated and poured into moulds,【C10】______shapes【C11】______it cooled. Dutchman Coenrad Van Houten perfected the【C12】______of cocoa butter from cocoa beans in 1825. The beans are crushed to a paste, which is【C13】______very high pressure, forming chocolate liquor and cocoa butter. The extracted butter is smoothed and【C14】______to remove any odors. In the 1880s, Rudolphe Lindt of Switzerland started adding【C15】______cocoa butter during chocolate manufacture, to make it【C16】______and glossier. Cocoa butter melts at around 97°F, which is human body temperature. That’s why chocolate melts in the mouth.
In 1875 , Swiss Daniel Peter perfected the【C17】______of milk chocolate, which is sweeter and smoother than dark chocolate. Nestle’s recently-invented【C18】______milk was easy to mix with cocoa paste, unlike liquid milk. Cadbury’s "Dairy Milk", first【C19】______in 1905, is the UK’s most【C20】______chocolate bar. Milk chocolate is now the world’s best-selling variety. [br] 【C4】
选项
A、with
B、without
C、like
D、unlike
答案
D
解析
篇章题。上下文理解题。本句比较了早期的可可饮料和现在的巧克力饮料。早期的很苦,而现在的情况怎么样?后面的句子讲人们后来在这种饮料里加入了更甜的东西,由此可推现在的饮料更甜一些,因此,两个时期的饮料一甜一苦,并不一样。这样,只有选项unlike“不像……一样”符合题意。like意为“像……一样”,与题意正好相反。with和without表示“含有”和“不含有”,此处并没有讲一种饮料含有另一种饮料,因此,不合题意。
