 Find 10 mistakes in the following passage.
Chocolate is a very special kind of food. Although certainly not a vital part of the human diet, it is
loved by-for its delicious sweet taste and the way it melts in the mouth, and would be missed by many
millions of people if it suddenly ceased to exist. Indeed, the global population of ‘chocoholics’ (people
who find chocolate very difficult to resist) are-is very large. The most chocoholic countries in the world
are in Europe; Switzerland and Austria top the list with an annually- annual average consumption of
around ten kilograms of chocolate per person, closely followed by Britain and Ireland.
Many people believe that eating chocolate has a mood-enhancing affect-effect. There is
disagreement , however, about whether this is due to the ingredients of chocolate or the significance
attached to eating it. Some scientists have suggested-suggest that chocolate releases chemicals in the
brain that create feelings of happiness, while others believe the happy feelings might only occur because
people see eating chocolate as a way of being nice to themselves.
The vital ingredient in chocolate is the seeds of the cacao tree, which only grows in tropical
countries. Cacao was firstly-first cultivated at least 2,500 years ago by the Maya and Aztec civilisations
of Central America, who-which used the seeds to make a chocolate-flavoured drink. In the early
sixteenth century, Spanish explorers who arrived on-in Central America recorded that the Aztec emperor,
Montezuma, was particularly fond of this chocolate drink, although it was not mixed with sugar and
therefore had a bitter more- rather than a sweet taste.
The Spanish took cacao seeds back to Europe, where the chocolate drink quickly became popular
with very rich people, the only ones able to afford it. It wasn’t until the nineteenth century that chocolate
began to appear in the solid form that is so familiar today. The world’s biggest producers of cacao today
are the Ivory Coast ang Ghana, both in western Africa.
