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【C1】______to preserve 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【C2】______have the patience for serious canning. But there is another, easier way: boozy(含酒的)fruit. The basic【C3】______is simply to mix fruit and sugar with enough hard spirit to keep the fruit well soaked, and let it sit. You can【C4】______the liquid as a drink and eat the sweet fruit over ice cream or cake. It is about the simplest preserving method to【C5】______the life of fruits apart from freezing. And not surprisingly, it’s lately become somewhat of a【C6】______among the legion of DIY canners and fervent gardeners looking to make the most of seasonal【C7】______.
    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【C8】______up.
    Unlike making jam, which you can eat right off the stove, the【C9】______to it is that putting up fruit in alcohol is the slow road to dessert. The raw spirit and fruit need some【C10】______to get acquainted, traditionally from the end of summer harvest until Christmas.
A)downside F)premise K)rarely
B)fashion G)produce L)sip
C)frequently H)productive M)time
D)mass I)prolong N)trend
E)mess J)promote O)urge [br] 【C8】
选项
答案 E
解析 动词辨析题。空格前为不定式符号to，空格后为副词up，空格处应填入能与up搭配使用的动词原形。本句中it指代前面的preserving with alcohol(用酒来储存)，文章此处指出，用酒来储存是罐装爱好者人门的最低等级，因为它很难——。结合选项可知，mess“弄乱”符合句意。mess up为固定搭配，意为"出错，搞砸"，故为答案。
