The hand-cranked ice cream freezer was first developed by Nancy Johnson in 1846. Ice was readily【C4】______from large warehouses in that era, so ice cream became a【C5】______that could be enjoyed by almost anyone, not just the rich. Ice cream making was revolutionized again in 1851, when Jacob Fussel started the first wholesale ice cream manufacturing【C6】______in Baltimore, Maryland.

选项
A、objection
B、popularity
C、measurement
D、proportion
答案
B
解析
名词辨义题。根据后面提到的“直到美国经济大萧条时期销量下滑”可知,这两句为转折关系,本句意为“冰淇淋越来越流行”,所以popularity“普及,流行”符合题意。objection“反对”;measurement“测量”;proportion“比例,部分”,均不符合文意,故排除。
