问题     I’m going to talk about the preserving of fruits here. At the end of every summer, as the heaps of fresh fruit start to dwindle (减少) at the farmers’ markets, the urge to【S1】______it all pulls strong.
    As much as I love the idea of a pantry (食品储藏室) full of homemade jams, jellies, I【S2】______have the patience for serious canning. But there is another, easier way: boozy (含酒的) fruit. The basic【S3】______is simply to mix fruit and sugar with enough hard spirit to keep the fruit well soaked, and let it sit. You can【S4】______the liquid as a drink and eat the sweet fruit over ice cream or cake. It is about the simplest preserving method to【S5】______the life of fruits apart from freezing. And not surprisingly, it’s lately become somewhat of a【S6】______among the legion of DIY canners and fervent gardeners looking to make the most of seasonal【S7】______.
    For Amy Pennington, a professional gardener in Seattle, "There’s drying, salting, and canning, but preserving with alcohol is the lowest grade of entry for beginning canning enthusiasts because it’s hard to【S8】______up."
    Unlike making jam, which you can eat right off the stove, the【S9】______to it is that putting up fruit in alcohol is the slow road to dessert. The raw spirit and fruit need some【S10】______to get acquainted, traditionally from the end of summer harvest until Christmas.
A) produce F) preserve K) productive
B) frequently G) promote L) downside
C) trend H) mess M) premise
D) mass I) fashion N) time
E) sip J) rarely O) prolong [br] 【S5】
选项
答案 O
解析 动词辨析题。本句中It作句子的形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式结构，要填的是不定式结构中的动词原形。储藏水果的目的是——水果的寿命，因此，prolong“延长”符合句意。
