Answer the questions according to the text.
Shaking Things Up: Coca-Cola
1 It is said that the Coca-Cola bottle is the most well-known object in the world.
Hundreds of millions of people can recognise a Coke bottle by its1 shape, even if they2
cannot see it! And the Coca-Cola logo is the most famous logo in the world. Unlike any
other commercial logo, it3 has not changed in 100 years!
2 But the story of Coca-Cola is even older than that. It was in 1886 that John
Pemberton, a pharmacist in Atlanta, invented a new type of syrup, using coca leaves,
sugar and cola nuts, plus a few other secret ingredients! Pemberton sold it as a
medicine.
3 Pemberton's medicine was not very successful, so he sold his secret
formula to another pharmacist, Asa Candler. Candler was interested because he4
had another idea; he thought that Pemberton's "medicine" would taste better if
it was mixed with soda. So, Candler is the man who really invented the drink
Coca-Cola. At first he sold it in his5 drugstore; then he began selling the syrup to
other drugstores that used it with their soda fountains. Candler also advertised
his new drink.
4 Before long, other people became interested in the product, including a group of
businessmen who wanted to sell it in bottles. Candler sold them6 a license to bottle the drink,
and very quickly the men became millionaires. The famous bottle, with its very distinctive shape,
was designed in 1916.
I. Are the statements (T) true or (F) false?
1. Pemberton sold Coca-Cola as a refreshing drink.
2. Asa Candler bought Coca-Cola because it was very successful.
3. At first, Coca-Cola was sold in drugstores as a fountain drink.
