答案:harvested
原文定位:This is when the beans are harvested, and then the bags holding them are ready to be transported
同义替换:「ship」↔「transport」
答案:opened
原文定位:Once the beans are unloaded from the railroad cars, the packages are opened and then weighed by machines
答案:cleaned
原文定位:On arrival at the factory, the cocoa beans are sorted and put in a hopper to be cleaned more rigorously
答案:expanded
原文定位:Now, roasting takes place at a high temperature, and then the beans are boiled in a heated chamber. During the roasting process, the beans will be expanded and cracked
答案:cooled
原文定位:After the beans are cracked, they need to be cooled. Then the roasted beans are sealed in pockets
答案:sealed
原文定位:After the beans are cracked, they need to be cooled. Then the roasted beans are sealed in pockets
答案:mild
原文定位:Now, the first crack is lighter bodied and has a higher acidity level with no obvious roast flavor and is popular for its special mild taste
答案:smoky
原文定位:The green beans are raw, unroasted coffee beans. They are strictly hard beans with a smoky flavor and are slightly acidic
答案:chocolaty
原文定位:We've also got French roast, and the flavor that comes across in French roast coffee usually has more to do with the roasting process than the actual quality of the beans. By the time the beans are dark enough to qualify as French, most of their original flavor has dissipated. In its place come the flavors of caramelizing sugar, bittersweet coffee, and often a bit of chocolate
答案:intense
原文定位:As a result of the pressurized brewing process, the flavors and chemicals in a typical cup of espresso are very concentrated
同义替换:「intense」↔「very concentrated」
