据称，卡尔迪观察到他的山羊在吃了附近咖啡树上的红色浆果后行为异常。他自己尝了一些，很快也变得和他的羊群一样兴奋。然后他带了一些到修道院，那里的人们在长时间祈祷期间发现它们的提神效果，并为此感到担忧。他们认为咖啡一定是魔鬼的作品。参考答案21.religious2.threw3.convinced4.roasted5.that6.centuries7.discovery8.with9.Similarly10.chewed参考译文2当地的宗教领袖将这棵树的豆子扔到火上以销毁它们，但是烤咖啡豆散发出的令人愉悦的香气让他们决定再给咖啡一次机会。和泡茶一样，他们把烤过的咖啡豆放入热水中，咖啡饮料就这样诞生了。尽管有这个传说，但人们认为在卡尔迪的“发现”之前，嚼咖啡豆提神的做法已经存在了几个世纪。人们会将咖啡豆磨碎，与黄油和动物脂肪混合，以保存并在长途旅行中食用——相当于能量棒的前身。苏丹奴隶也被认为曾经嚼食咖啡豆，以帮助他们在贸易路线上艰难的航行中生存下来。参考答案31.of2.topin3.What4.historical5.when6.toremain7.for8.throughout9.existed10.brought参考译文3卡尔迪的故事难以溯源。我们所确知的是，真正的关于咖啡消费的历史记载直到很久以后才出现，据说当时也门虔诚的苏菲派信徒饮用咖啡以在宗教仪式期间保持警觉。咖啡豆的种植和贸易始于14世纪的阿拉伯国家，然后传播到埃及、叙利亚和土耳其。据说在17世纪以前，咖啡植株在阿拉伯或非洲之外还不存在，直到一位名叫巴巴布丹的朝圣者将它们带回印度。参考答案41.In2,to3.took4.followed5.eventually6.who7.spends8.on9.while10.energetic参考
