But as long as humans have had【C1】________to fire and meat, they have been eating something as a sausage. Ancient Rome and medieval Europe had sausages. They’re even【C2】________in the Odyssey.
    In the 17th and 18th centuries, British【C3】________brought sausages to American shores, but the hot dog as it is known today is nearer to the German sausage. While sausages as street food were【C4】________in American cities by the late 1700s,  it was only after the Civil War that the sausage became mechanized and【C5】________ . Meat moved from the butcher shop to the factory. The hot dog was born.
    This industrialization was possible for a few reasons. The growing American desire for meat and the ability to afford it, for one part. The construction and connection of railways, for another. New machinery had started to【C6】________human butchers as well. By the 1870s, massive firms could swiftly slaughter, season, and process animals【C7】________by rail from the stockyards of the Midwest and turn them into hot dogs. Americans wanted hot dogs,【C8】________ the identical ones that came from name-brand companies.
    By the early 20th century, the hot dog was fully American, and closely【C9】________with another American pastime, baseball. Somehow, a mass-produced hot dog had become a【C10】________of American individualism.
    A) access        F) immigrants        K) particularly
    B) associated     G) industrialized      L) referred
    C) common      H) mentioned         M) replace

选项
答案A
解析 名词辨析题。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入名词，与to fire and meat构成名词短语，作动词had的宾语。原文指出，自从人类________火和肉，就一直吃着类似香肠的东西。人类“获得”火种和肉类，才能够做成香肠。结合备选项，可以推断A)access“接触的机会”符合题意，故为答案。have access to意为“能够接触得到，能够达到”。
