2016-2017学年福建省厦门市湖滨中学八年级下学期英语期中试题(含听力音频)

阅读下列短文,从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项,使短文通顺、连贯、意思完整。(E)
    What's your favorite sweet? Perhaps there is nothing like chocolate. It is popular all over the world.
    Chocolate comes from a civilization (文明) called the Maya. They had a special food called cocoa.  About five hundred years ago, the Europeans found the Mayans. They used cocoa to make chocolate.
     For centuries, only the rich could enjoy chocolate.   All this changed when European companies started to make chocolate bars in the 19th century.
     White, dark and milk chocolate are what people often eat. The biggest chocolate bar ever was made in Italy in 2011. It weighed almost 6 tons ! That's as big as an elephant.
     People often take them as holiday gifts. Chocolate bunnies and eggs are popular on Easter, chocolate coins are common on Christmas, and chocolate hearts are great gifts for Valentine's Day. In certain parties and wedding ceremonies (结婚典礼), chocolate fountains (喷泉) always surprise people.
    Not necessarily so! Scientists now say it is good for people's heart and can make people feel good. But don't eat too much of it.
A. Chocolate comes in different colors and sizes.
B. There are also different shapes of chocolate.
C. The word cocoa means "gift from God".
D. Lots of people say chocolate is bad for your health.
E. Normal people could not get hold of it.
