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.

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”。
