26、 there? Chocolate is simply delicious. What is chocolate? Where does it come from?The history of chocolate goes back to the discovery of cacao beans. About 4000 years ago, the Americans made cacao beans into a drink and they took it as a gift from nature.In 1519, the Spanish explorer Hernando Cortex
27、 visited Mexico in America. He saw people drink cacao mixed with spices (香料). Cortex took some cacao home as a gift to the Spanish King Charles. Since then, people in Spain began to drink cacao. However, the nature taste of cacao was too bitter for most people. Tosweeten it, Spanish added sugar and
28、honey to it. As a sweet drink, it became popular in Europe. By the 17th century, rich people in Europe began drinking cacao drink as a fashion.In 1828, a Dutch chemist, Conrad J. van Houten started using a new process to remove the fat from cacao beans. He made a machine that pressed the fat from th
29、e beans. The resulting powder ( 粉末 ) mixed better with water than cacao did. People called van Houtens cacao powder Dutch chocolate it is the beginning of modern chocolate.After that, chocolate makers started trying new recipes ( 配方 ) with Dutch chocolate. First it was mixed with sugar. Then butter
30、was added to the sweetened chocolate to make chocolate bars. In 1849, an English chocolate maker successfully made the rst chocolate bar. In the 19th century, the Swiss started making milk chocolate by mixing powdered milk. Milk chocolate has not changed much since this process was invented.Today th

34、ate today.30What does the passage mainly talk about?AThe tastes of chocolate. BThe history of chocolate.CThe makers of chocolate. DThe benets of chocolate.DAs online learning becomes more common. Now more and more resources (资源) are converted to digital (数码的) form. Some people have suggested that pu
35、blic libraries should be shut down and, in their place, everyone should be given an iPad with an e-reader subscription (订阅).Supporters of this idea state that it will save local cities and towns money because the operating costs of libraries are expensive. They also believe it will encourage more pe
36、ople to read because they wont have to travel to a library to get a book. They can simply click on what they want to read and read it from wherever they are.However, it would be a serious mistake to replace libraries with tablets (平板电脑). First, digital books and resources are related to less learnin
37、g and more problems than print resources. A study done on tablet vs book reading found people read 20-30% slower on tablets, keep 20% less information, and understand 10% less of what they read compared to people who read the same information in print.Second, it is not open-minded to state that the
38、only service libraries offer is book lending. Libraries have lots of benefits, and many are only usable if the library has a physical location. Some of these benets include acting as a quiet study space, giving people a way to communicate with their neighbors, holding classes on various topics, prov
39、iding jobs and keeping the community connected. A survey done in 2015 found that nearly two-thirds of American adults feel that closing their local library would have a great effect on their community. People see libraries as a way to connect with others and get their questions answeredbenets tablet
40、s cant offer nearly as well or as easily.While replacing libraries with tablets may seem like a simple way, it would encourage people to spend even more time looking at digital screens, although there are various problems around them. It would also end many of the benets of libraries that people hav
41、e come to depend on. In many areas, libraries are such an important part of the community network that they could never be replaced by a simple object.31What does the underlined word converted in Paragraph 1 probably mean? AConnected. BCelebrated. CChanged. DExpressed.32According to the passage, the
42、 author probably agrees that . Aits necessary for readers to read in librariesBthe only service libraries offer is book lendingCpublic libraries should be replaced with digital devicesDdigital books and resources encourage people to spend more time reading33The purpose of the passage is mainly to .
