Taste is suc.h a subjective matter that we dori't usually conduct preference tests for food. The most you can say about anyone's preference is that it's one person's opinion.But because the two bigcola companies-Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola-are marketed so aggressively, we've wondered how big arole taste-preference actually plays in brand loyalty.We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting.
we inwited staff wolunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet Coke.or Diet Pepsi.These were people who thought they'd have no trouble telling their brand from the oLher brancl.
We eventuallv located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers.Then we fed them with four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other.rOVe asked them to tell us whether each sample wa.s Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants' choices \~-ith what mere guesswork could have accom-plished.
Getting all four samples right was a tough test, biit not too tough, we thought, for people whobelieved they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 0ut of 19 regular cola drinkers correct-ly identified their brand of choice in all four trial.s. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 out of 27 identified all four samples correctly.
Both groups did better than chance would predict, but nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times.Two people got all'four samples vrrong. Overall, hal.f theparticipants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so tiredness, or taste burn-out, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.
71.According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to______
A.show that a person's opinion about taste is mere guesswork
B.compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks
C.find out the role taste preference plays in a person's drinking

       Patricia asked for the cheapest car available at Acme Car Rental. She needed a car for 48
hours. Because it was the weekend,there was only one car available at the moment-an SUV.
Patricia was an environmentalist. SUVs,which are big cars consuming a lot of gasoline,offended
her greatly.
       But she needed something to get to Baker,a town that was 100 miles from the small airport.
So she went, RentMe instead. "I need a car for 48 hours," she said," and I don't want an SUV.
I want something cheap. "They told her they had just the vehicle for her,a 1998Toyota. Thirty
dollars a day,including insurance and other incidental fees. All she had to do was to pay forher
own gasoline. Patricia was very pleased. Thirty dollars a day was a good rate even for a weekday.
She signed all the paperwork,and they gave her the keys.
        The Toyota was a 4-speed,4-cylinder,2-door beauty,the paint,tires,and the interior were like
the new. It was comfortable, even though the air-conditioner was not the frostiest(结霜的) . She
got in and drove north. It was a two-lane road all the way to Baker,with only one town between
the airport and Baker. That town was Noms,40 miles from Baker.
        Patricia didn't make it to Norris. The car refused to run 30 minutes after she had been driving
it. Fortunately,her cell phone was able to connect back to the RentMe desk. "My car stopped
running. and I'm out here in the middle of nowhere in the hot sun! " she said.
       "That doesn't make any sense," said the clerk."You did put gas in the car before you left town,
didn't you? "
        "No. Of course not ! "  yelled Patricia. " Why would Iput gas in the car before I even got out
of town?" "Well,why do you think you got such a good
rate-we save money by having the customer gas up instead of us having to put gas in the car. "
       "I was in a hurry,"said Patricia.
       "Well,sometimes you pay a price for being in a hurry," said the clerk. " We'II send a man out
with some spare gas for you:if you'd like. ,,"
       Of course l'd like , " said Patria.ia. " How long willit be?"
       The clerk told her it would be within the hour. He didn't tell her that there would be a  $ 50
service charge for delivering the gas,or that the 3 gallons of fuel would cost her $ 7 a gallon. She
would get that bad news when she retumed the car to the airport.
1. Why didn't Patricia want to rent an SUV?     
A. Because it was a big car that would need a lot of gasoline.
B. Because she failed to carry enough money with her.
C. Because she was not used to driving suc, h a big car.
D. Because it was not easy to drive since it was so old.
2. How much would Patricia have to pay at least when she returned the car to the airport?  
A. $ 161.                          
B. $ 60.
C. $ 131.
