Russet Bur-bank 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. A familiar food had been transformed into a highly processed industrial【C8】______. McDonald’s fries now come from huge【C9】______plants that can process two million pounds of potatoes a day. The expansion of McDonald’s and the【C10】______of its low-cost, mass-produced fries changed the way Americans eat.
The【C11】______of McDonald’s French fries played a【C12】______role in the chain’s success— fries are much more profitable than hamburgers—and was long【C13】______by customers, competitors, and even food critics. Their distinctive taste does not【C14】______the kind of potatoes that McDonald’s【C15】______the technology that processes them, or the restaurant equipment that fries them: other【C16】______use Russet Burbank, buy their French fries from the same large processing companies, and have【C17】______fryers in their restaurant kitchens.

【C10】
选项
A、prosperity
B、growth
C、productivity
D、popularity
答案
D
解析
由前一句提到的“如今麦当劳的薯条均来自土豆日产量高达200万磅的大型厂商”可知.麦当劳对土豆有这么大的需求即表示它的炸薯条很受欢迎、很好卖,D项popularity“流行,普及,受欢迎”代入文中,意为“随着麦当劳业务的日益扩展及其低成本、批量生产的炸薯条的日益普及,美国人的饮食习惯因此而改变”,麦当劳的薯条越来越受青睐,即表示越来越多的人更频繁地吃薯条,这意味着美国人饮食习惯发生了改变。D项代入后,与上下文语义相符,故为本题答案。
