Vaukin de Silva is a Brazilian who lives and works in New York. Brazil’s most important product is coffee and coffee is Vaukin’s business. He works for an international coffee institute. It represents Brazil and several other countries that export coffee. The institute wants more people to drink more coffee. That hasn’t been easy to do for the last few months.
A period of freezing weather destroyed a large part of Brazil’s coffee crop. As a result, there has been a shortage of coffee throughout the world. The shortage has caused prices to go very high. Many people are talking about giving up coffee until the prices come down again. All the countries that are represented in the institute want people to continue drinking coffee. They spend a lot of time explaining the recent rise in price to newspaper reporters. They want the public to understand the reason for the shortage. A month ago, Vaukin was put in charge of an advertising campaign. The campaign will try to encourage people to keep on drinking coffee.
Sometimes, Vaukin misses the beaches and tropical weather in Rio de Janeiro, but he likes life in New York. He’s young, only 27 years old, and he’s a good-looking bachelor. There are a lot of women to meet in New York and a lot of places to go with them. When he misses home, there are several Brazilian restaurants where he can go and speak Portuguese, his native language. The last few weeks, however, he’s been too busy to think about anything except coffee prices and his advertising campaign.
9. What does the passage say about the international coffee institute?
10. What caused the recent shortage of coffee throughout the world?
11. What do we learn about Vaukin de Silva?
12. What has occupied Vaukin’s mind for the last few weeks?
选项
A、It is a Portuguese company selling coffee in New York.
B、It represents several countries that export coffee.
C、Its most important task is to conduct coffee studies.
D、Its role is to regulate international coffee prices.
答案
C
解析
根据题干中的intonational coffee institute很容易定位到短文开头部分,此处提到,瓦金.迪.席尔瓦工作的这家国际咖啡机构代理包括巴西在内的几个咖啡出口国的业务,故选项C正确。其他三个选项短文中未提及,均可排除。“指代的是该国际咖啡机构。
