The first chocolate was eaten by people in South America hundreds years ago. In those days, the people didn’t really eat chocolate. They used the coca bean(可可豆) to make a chocolate drink and they enjoyed it very much. Many years later, the coca bean was brought to other countries and people came to love the taste of chocolate.
In 1824, John Cadbury opened a small shop in British. One of the things he sold was chocolate drink. In 1831, he opened a factory to make chocolate drink. He wanted to encourage people to drink chocolate instead of other drinks. A few years later, a man called Joseph Fry found a way to make chocolate bars(条状巧克力), and so for the first time people had the chance to eat chocolate instead of only drinking it. But at that time chocolate was very expensive and only the rich people could buy it. Later, as more and more chocolate bars were produced and sold, it became cheaper.
However, at first only plain chocolate (a kind of chocolate without milk and with very little sugar) was produced and sold. Milk chocolate came later and this was made by adding milk to the chocolate. The first milk chocolate bar was made in Cadbury’s factory in 1897. Their most famous chocolate, Cadbury’s Milk Bar, was made in 1905. It has been the most popular chocolate in Britain and around the world for over 100 years. The Cadbury factory is still in Britain and the chocolate produced there is eaten all over the world. Every year, thousands of visitors visit the factory in order to see how chocolate is made.

It’s known that the marmots(土拨鼠) are very shy around humans, beating their tails and making loud noise with their teeth to tell other members of their colony to run away.
But when these marmots see Matteo Walch, they run to his side and show him nothing but affection(喜爱).
The eight-year-old Matteo Walch built up a great relationship with the creatures since first being taken to see them by his nature-loving family four years ago.
The family return to visit these marmots in Groslocker in the Austrian Alps(阿尔卑斯山) for two weeks every year.
Matteo loves those animals and they are not at all afraid of Matteo because he has a feeling towards them and they understand that.
Marmots stand at around 18cm tall and can reach up to 50cm in length. Strangely, the animals are heavier in autumn, when they can weigh up to 8kg, but 3kg in the spring months.
Michael, a teacher from Innsbruck, Austria, has taken lots of photos of Matteo and his marmot friends during the past four years.
He said,“I could spend several hours watching animals. It’s great that I have been able to document the marmot’s natural behavior around Matteo without making them afraid of me and my camera, I wanted to capture(用影片文字等记录…的原样) the animals exactly the way I see them ---the way they behave among each other.”
从照片上很清楚地看出,马蒂奥和土拨鼠彼此相处得很好。
1.How many years has Matteo built up a great relationship with marmots?
2.How tall are marmots when they stand?
3.将短文中划线的英文句子译成汉语。
