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(泡)smaller amounts 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(玻璃大瓶). 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 CupataTime costs $27, while Toastmaster’s Coffee Break Retails for $20.
Black & Decker also makes a coffee maker that drips coffee directly into a carryaround thermal(热的) carafe. The carafe, a glass vacuum bottle, is supposed to keep the coffee fresh for hours. The product, called the Thermal Carafe Coffeemaker, comes with a builtin lid that opens during the brewing process and close when it is completed. There are several models, including one that firs under the counter, ranging from $60 to $110 in price.
Which of the following statements can be inferred from the pas sage?
选项
A、People used to make a pot of coffee in the morning and drink it up.
B、The new coffee makers usually cost less than before.
C、People used to drink coffee in larger quantities.
D、It is essential to attach a separate carafe, while "drip" coffee makers are applied.
答案
C
解析
细节理解题。见文章第一段第一句“More people than ever are drinking coffee these days—but in smaller quantities than they used to.”根据本句提供的信息,可知以前人们一次喝咖啡比现在多。文章第二段的第二句、第三句可以分别判定选项A)、D)错误;而选项B)的在文章则没有涉及,故而正确答案是C)。
