there was no way to prevent spoilage But in 1810, a French inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of canning And in the 1850s, an American named Gail Borden developed a means of condensing and preserving milk Canned foods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860s, but supplies remained low because cans had to be made by hand By 1880, however, inventors had fashioned stamping and soldering machines that mass-produced cans from tinplate Suddenly, all kinds of food could be preserved and bought at all time of the year Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily diets Growing urban populations created demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable farmers to raise more produce Railroad refrigerator cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great distances and to preserve them for longer periods Thus, by the 1890s, northern city dwellers could enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at most, for up to six months of the year In addition, increased use of iceboxes enabled families to store perishables An easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870s, and by 1900 the nation had more than 2,000 commercial ice plants, (6) most of which made home deliveries The icebox became the fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized refrigerator replaced it in the 1920s and 1930s Almost everyone now had a more diversified diet Some people continued to eat mainly foods that were heavy in starches and carbohydrates, and not everyone could afford meat Nevertheless, many families could take advantage of previously unavailable fruits, vegetables, and dairy products to achieve more varied fare What does the passage mainly discuss? A Causes of food spoilage C Inventions that led to changes in the American diet B Commercial production of ice D Population movements in the nineteenth century The phrase ‘in season’ in paragraph refers to A a kind of weather C an official schedule B a particular time of the year D a method of flavoring food The word ‘prevent’ in paragraph is closest in meaning to A estimate B avoid C correct D confine During the 1860s, canned food products were A unavailable in rural areas C available in limited quantities B shipped in refrigerator cars D a staple part of the American diet It can be inferred that railroad refrigerator cars came into use A before 1860 B before 1890 C after 1900 D after 1920 The word ‘fixture’ in paragraph is closest in meaning to A luxury item B substance C commonplace object D mechanical device The author implies that in the 1920s and 1930s home delivery of ice A decreased in number C increased in cost B were on an irregular schedule D occurred only in summer The word ‘Nevertheless’ in paragraph is closest in meaning to A therefore B because C occasionally D however Which of the following types of food preservation was NOT mentioned in the passage?
