New fast food debuts in U.S. fairs—fired Coke
A new fast food is making its debut(首次演出) at U.S. fairs this fall----fried Coke. Abel Gonzales, 36, a puter analyst from Dallas, tried about 15 different varieties before ing up with his perfect recipe----a batter mix made with Coca-Cola syrup, a drizzle of strawberry syrup, and some strawberries.
Balls of the batter are then deep-fried, ending up like ping-pang ball sized doughnuts（面团）which are then served in a cup, topped with Coca-Cola syrup, whipped cream, cinnamon(桂皮)sugar and a cherry on the top.
“It tastes great,” said Sue Gooding, a spokeswoman for the State Fair of Texas where Gonzales’ fried Coke made its debut this fall. “It was a huge success.”
Gonzales ran two stands at the State Fair of Texas and sold up to 35,000 fried Cokes over 24 days for 4.50 dollars each –and won a prize for ing up with “most creative” new fair food.
Ray Crockett, a spokesman for Coca-Cola Co., said: “we’re constantly amazed at the creative ways folks find to enjoy their Coke and make it part of celebrations like fairs and festivals. This is one is definitely different!”

(答案→)16---19 BDAB
解析：
本文向人们介绍一种新食品——美国新小吃--炒可乐。
16. B 推理判断题。本文只是向人们介绍一种新食品,故极有可能会出现在报纸上.如果是广告文中就不会引用那么多的评论。
17. D 推理判断题。从tried about 15 different varieties before ing up with his perfect recipe可知,这种新食品应是第16种尝试.他发明的是他最喜爱的故B错.最具创意的食品是别人说的,他本人未必认可.而excellent与perfect是近义词.
18. A 细节理解题。在24天的展销中就卖了157500 dollars故B项不正确。C，D项与文章不符。
19. B 细节理解题。炸可乐是吃的一种形式，而不是另一种可乐，故A项不正确。民众找到一些享受可乐的具有创造性的方式，故C错。D项针对的是这种吃可乐的方式而非这次展销。要求考生就题论题而不能凭主观论断。否则就有可能误选答案C。
