More people than ever are drinking coffee these days but in smaller quantities than they used to. Some manufacturers of coffee makers are trying to take advantage of this trend by developing diminutive machines that brew smaller a mounts of coffee.
Two US appliance companies—Black & Decker, based in Towson, Maryland, and Toastmaster Inc. of Columbia, Missouri—have recently introduced "drip" coffee makers that brew one or two cup servings of coffee. Both of the products brew the coffee directly into a cup or mug, eliminating the need for a separate carafe. Since many people make a pot of coffee in the morning but drink only a single cup, the new coffee makers should reduce the wasted coffee. Black & Decker’s Cup at-a-time costs $27, while Toastmasters Coffee Break Retails for $20. Black & Decker also makes a coffee maker that drips coffee directly into a carry-around thermal carafe. The carafe, a glass vacuum bottle, is supposed to keep the coffee fresh for hours. The product, called the Thermal Carafe Coffee maker, comes with a built-in lid that opens during the brewing process and closes when it is completed. There are several models, including one that firs under the counter, ranging from $60 to $110 in price.
选项
A、introduce a new trend of drinking coffee
B、introduce new coffee makers
C、introduce two U.S. appliance companies
D、introduce the new coffee industry
答案
B
解析
主旨大意题。通过了解全文结构及各层次意思可以得知答案。文章的结构可以分成两个部分,第一部分是第一段,讲述了新型咖啡机产生的原因。第二部是剩余两段,是文章的主干部分,详细描述了一些新产品的优点及工作原理,这两面是平行关系。所以答案应为B。
