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] 【C18】
选项
A、condensed
B、extracted
C、contracted
D、purified
答案
A
解析
篇章题。上下文理解题。根据空格后的unlike liquid milk可确定此处表示牛奶的状态,且此状态与liquid(液态)不一样。选项condensed意为“浓缩的,使凝结的”,表示“浓缩”时指将水分除去。若选此项,condensed milk表示“炼乳”,符合题意,因此,为正确答案。extracted“提取的”,不能表示牛奶的状态,不合题意。contracted意为“收缩了的,缩小的,缩略的”,指“通过收紧使……尺寸缩小”,如:contracted drawing缩略图。可见,此选项也不合题意。purify表示“提纯,精炼,使纯净”,指除去异物等,此选项指牛奶是否含异物杂质,和状态没有关系,因此,此选项含义不合题意。
