An American soldier called his parents from San Francisco after a war. “Mom and Dad, I’m coming
home, but I’ve got a favor to ask. I have a friend I’d like to bring 48 me.”
“Sure,” they replied. “We’d love to meet him.”
“There’s something you should know,” the son continued. “He was hurt pretty 49 in the fighting. He stepped on a land mine 50 lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to come and live with us.”
“I’m sorry to hear that, son. Maybe we can help him find 51 to live.”
“No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us.”
“Son,” said the father, “Someone like him would be a terrible burden on us. Just come home and forget about this guy. He will find a way to live on his 52 .”
At that point, the son hung up the 53 .
A few days later, the parents received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building, 54 the police believed was suicide. They went and recognized him, but 55 their horror, they also discovered something they didn’t expect: their son had only one arm and one leg.
In 1885, he registered a trademark for something called French Wine Coca-Ideal Nerve and Tonic Stimulant. A few months later, he formed the Pemberton Chemical Company, and hired an accountant named Frank M. Robinson, who had not only a good head for figures, but, attached to it, so unique a nose that he could judge the ingredients of a batch of syrup merely by sniffing it.
In 1886 --- a year in which, as contemporary Coca-Cola officials like to point out, the English writer Conan Doyle made Sherlock Holmes known publicly and France found the truth about the Statue of Liberty --- Pemberton invented a syrup that he called Coca-Cola. It was a change of his French Wine Coca. He had taken out the wine and added a bit of caffeine, and, when the end product tasted awful, had thrown in some cola nut oil and a few other oils, mixing the mixture in a three-legged iron pot in his back yard and swishing it around with an oar.
He distributed it to soda fountains in used beer bottles, and Robinson, with his elegant account’s script, instantly designed a label, on which "Coca-Cola" was written in the style which is still employed. Pemberton looked upon his mixture less as a drink than as a headache cure.
One morning in 1886, a man suffering from a headache dragged himself into an Atlanta drugstore and asked for a bottle of Coca-Cola. According to usual practice, druggists should pour a teaspoonful of syrup into a glass of water, but at that time, the man on duty was too lazy to walk to the fresh-water tap. Instead, he mixed the syrup with some soda water, which was closer at hand. After drinking it, the suffering customer cheered up almost at once, and word quickly spread that the best Coca-Cola was a fizzy (冒泡泡的)one.
小题1:According to the passage, which of the following about Pemberton is wrong?
A.He was highly respected by Atlantans because of his great contribution. |
B.Medicines like Triplex Liver Pills and Globe of Flower Cough Syrup are his patent products. |
C.During the Civil War, he was an officer of a cavalry troop, a chemist and a doctor. |
D.Coca-Cola which is very popular now was invented by him. |
A.Because Conan Doyle contributed to Pemberton’s Coca-Cola invention. |
B.Because France sent the Statue of Liberty to America and Pemberton loved it. |
C.Because they are still proud of Pemberton’s invention. |
D.Because Pemberton made more money for the company this year than in any other year. |
A.He helped his boss and began making patent medicines together with his boss in 1869. |
B.He had a special nose with an acute sense of smell and especially was good at drawing. |
C.When he found the end product tasted awful, he threw in some cola nut oil and other oils. |
D.He designed a label “Coca-Cola” for the Coca-Cola Company with his elegant handwriting. |
A.He mixed it with several oils instead of water. |
B.He put some beer into the mixture. |
