In the last 500 years, nothing about people — not their clothes, ideas, or languages — has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the coca tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.
The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the "Potato Famine" of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction.
Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries.
But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.
According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a goatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the "wide-awake" feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.
"Some" in "Some still exist today"(Para. 1)means______.
选项
A、some coca trees.
B、some chocolate drinks.
C、some shops.
D、some South American Indians.
答案
C
解析
对于代词的考察题,需要先借助代词在句子中的搭配结构内容,判断代词指代的内容;然后再利用前面语句的内容和词语使用特点,判断答案。因为与主语some搭配的结构(谓语)是“存在”,因此答案只能出自前三个选项(人不能说“存在”)。前一句中只涉及到了B项和C项的内容,因此答案只能来自B项和C项之中。前句内容是“在伦敦,卖可口饮料的商店变成了重要的会客场所。”,因此判断some应该指代“商店”。
