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] 【C2】
选项
A、assigned
B、designed
C、resigned
D、dispatched
答案
A
解析
词汇题。词义辨析题。assign意为“选派,委派”,指为某项任务或工作选派,如:Myboss assigned me the job.我的老板派我担任这一职务。此处的含义为“派神灵担任它的保护神”,正合题意,为正确答案。design表示“计划,设计,制定”,如:They designed a marketing strategy for the new product.他们为新产品制定了营销策略。resign表示“放弃,辞去(职务)”,如:She promisedto resign her position as general manager.她答应辞去总经理的职务。以上两选项都不合题意。dispatch表示“派遣,发送”,指送到特定的目的地或分派特定任务,一般用法为dispatch sb.to do sth.,如:Mother dis—patched her boy to the shop to buy somebeer.母亲派儿子去商店买些啤酒回来。其用法与题意不合。
