During McDonald’s early years French fries were made from scratch every day. Russet Burbank potatoes were【C1】______, cut into shoestrings, and fried in its kitchens. As the chain expanded nationwide, in the mid-1960s, it sought to【C2】______ labor costs, reduce the number of suppliers, and ensure that its fries tasted the same at every restaurant. McDonald’s began【C3】______ to frozen French fries in 1966—and few customers noticed the difference. Nevertheless, the change had a profound effect on the nation’s agriculture and diet. A familiar food had been transformed into a highly processed industrial【C4】______. McDonald’s fries now come from huge manufacturing plants that can process two million pounds of potatoes a day. The expansion【C5】______ McDonald’s and the popularity of its low-cost, mass-produced fries changed the way Americans eat.
The【C6】______ of McDonald’s French fries played a【C7】______role in the chain’s success-fries are much more profitable than hamburgers—and was long praised by customers, competitors, and even food critics. Their distinctive taste does not stem from the kind of potatoes that McDonald’s【C8】______, the technology that processes them, or the restaurant equipment that fries them: other chains use Russet Burbank, buy their French fries from the same large processing companies, and have similar【C9】______ in their restaurant kitchens. The taste of a French fry is【C10】______ determined by the cooking oil. For decades McDonald’s cooked its French fries in a mixture of about 7 per cent cottonseed oil and 93 per cent beef fat. The mixture gave the fries their unique flavor. [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
A
解析
begin后可接动名词或不定式作宾语,词库无不定式选项,因此空格处应填入动名词。文章首句提到了炸薯条是每日临时现做(made from scratch),而空格后则说冷冻薯条(frozen French fries),因此推断此处表示由“临时现做”转换成“购买冷冻薯条”的形式,switching表示在不同事物之间转变、转移或切换,后跟介词to,表示转换所至的对象,因此选A。干扰项altering“(使)改变”不表示形式转换,且后不能接to,因此排除。
