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] 【C13】
选项
A、supposed to
B、subjected to
C、opposed to
D、confined to
答案
B
解析
词汇题。词义辨析题。(be)subjected to表示“使受到,使遭到”,如:Don’t subjectthat metal to great heat.别给那种金属加高温。句中空格所在为一个定语从句,修饰apaste(膏状物)。此处讲此膏状物在高压下形成液体可可和可可脂。subject to正符合此含义,因此,为正确答案。be supposed to“认为必须,认为应该”,如:We’re supposedto be there at six.我们得在6点钟到达那里。(be)opposed to意为“反对”,如:Weale firmly opposed to nuclear weapon.我们坚决反对核武器。(be)confined to表示“受限于”,如:After the accident he wasconfined to his bed for a whole week.车祸后他卧床了整整一周。由此可见,这几个选项都不合题意。
