    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."

答案 L
解析 名词辨析题。空格位于the的后面，因此应该填入一个名词。空格前的句意为“制果酱的话，我们可以随时在炉子旁品尝”；空格后的句意为“把水果浸泡在酒中储存的方法比较耗时”。对比空格前后的内容可知，downside“劣势”符合句意。
