During McDonald’s early years French fries were made from scratch every day. Russet Burbank potatoes were【C1】______, cut into shoestrings, and fried in its kitchens.【C2】______the chain expanded nationwide, in the mid-1960s, it sought to【C3】______labour costs, reduce the number of suppliers, and【C4】______that its fries tasted the same at every restaurant McDonald’s began【C5】______to frozen French fries in 1966--and few customers noticed the difference.【C6】______, the change had a profound effect【C7】______the nation’s agriculture and diet. A familiar food had been transformed into a highly processed industrial【C8】______.McDonald’s fries now come from huge manufacturing plants【C9】______can process two million pounds of potatoes a day.

The【C11】______of McDonald’s French fries played a【C12】______role in the chain’s success--fries are much more profitable than hamburgers--and was【C13】______praised by customers, competitors, and even food critics.

The taste of a French fry is【C19】______determined by the cooking oil. For decades McDonald’s cooked its French fries in a mixture of about 7 per cent cottonseed oil and 93 per cent beef fat.

【C12】
选项
A、decisive
B、determinant
C、essential
D、crucial
答案
D
解析
考查对四个近义词的区分和掌握。decisive和determinant都有“决定性的”的含义。从上下文可知,薯条在麦当劳的食品中占重要的地位,但还不是“决定性的”地位。而从语法角度可以排除essential(冠词a后面的词不以元音开头)。故crucial为正确答案,意即“占重要作用”。
