1) To answer this detail question correctly, we need to find where the author discusses the first thing people must do to make
chocolate in the passage. A good way to do this is to scan the topic sentence of each paragraph, since this sentence will likely tell
us what information can be found in the rest of that paragraph. The topic sentence of paragraph 3 reads: “To make chocolate,
people start by carefully taking the beans out of the pods, still covered in the white pulp, and leaving them in a bucket.” This lets us
know that the details we are looking for can likely be found in paragraph 3. In paragraph 3, the author writes, “To make chocolate,
people start by carefully taking the beans out of the pods, still covered in the white pulp, and leaving them in a bucket. The bucket is
often covered with banana leaves and left for anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.” This tells us that the first thing people
must do to the cocoa beans is to leave them in a bucket for a few days or even a few weeks.
2)In this passage, the author describes how chocolate is made. He or she lists all the steps: fermenting the cocoa beans, drying them
in the sun, shipping them to a factory, roasting them in an oven, crushing the inner bean into a paste, and finally adding ingredients
to create the chocolate we can buy in stores. Furthermore, in the final paragraph, the author writes, “Considering all that must
happen to turn a bitter cocoa bean into a chocolate bar, a dollar seems like a small price to pay for such a delicious sweet treat.”
The fact that all of these things “must happen” to make chocolate means that we can conclude there are many steps involved in
making chocolate. Therefore (C) is correct. In paragraph 2, the author writes, “These cocoa beans grow on a cacao tree, which is
found in tropical areas such as Central and South America.” However, this does not mean that chocolate is only made in Central
and South America. These places are only given as examples of where the cacao tree grows. Also, the passage tells us that the
cocoa beans are shipped to a factory, so that means chocolate does not have to be made in the same place where the cacao tree
grows. Therefore (A) is incorrect. The passage does not suggest that people could make their own chocolate at home. Instead it
tells us how chocolate is made in a factory. This means (B) is incorrect. The passage does not discuss the cost of making
chocolate. In the final paragraph, the author says “one dollar” is the price of a chocolate bar, but this does not tell us whether it is
expensive to make chocolate.
