Practice Listening: Multiple Choice, Single Answer ID: #36181 Short Plant-based Milk Products
Instructions ›
Listen to the recording and answer the multiple-choice question by selecting the correct response. Only one response is correct.
If you go to the store in search of milk, there are a dizzying number of products to choose from. There's dairy milk, but also plant-based products. To turn a plant into something resembling milk, it must be either soaked, drained, rinsed, and milled into a thick paste, or dried, and milled into flour. The plant paste or flour is then fortified with vitamins and minerals, flavored, and diluted with water. The result is a barrage of options that share many of the qualities of animal milk.

Option 2: "Although made from plants, plant-based products still share many qualities with animal milk."

Explanation: This option is correct as it directly reflects the text's statement that the result of processing plants into milk alternatives is a 'barrage of options that share many of the qualities of animal milk.' This aligns with the main idea of the text regarding the similarities between plant-based and animal milk.

Option 1: "The variety of the plant-based products is rather limited on the market because of their high prices."

Explanation: This option is incorrect because the text emphasizes the 'dizzying number of products' available, indicating a wide variety rather than a limited selection. Additionally, there is no mention of high prices affecting the variety.

Option 3: "The only way to turn a plant into milk is to mill it into a thick paste before mixing it with other materials."

Explanation: This option is incorrect because the text describes two methods for creating plant-based milk: milling into a thick paste or drying and milling into flour. Therefore, stating that there is 'only' one way is misleading and not supported by the text.

Option 4: "Plant-based milk provides less nutrition to human beings, compared with animal milk."

Explanation: This option is incorrect as the text does not discuss the nutritional value of plant-based milk compared to animal milk. It focuses on the process of making plant-based milk and its similarities to animal milk, without making any claims about nutritional content.
