试题分析：本文讲述了咖啡的形成过去和在世界范围的受欢迎的具体信息。
小题1:G 根据下一句the cocoa bean was used to make a chocolate drink that the people enjoyed very much说明那个时候的人只是把可可豆制成饮料来喝，并不是真正地吃可可豆，故G项正确。
小题2:E 根据下句中的One of the items he sold说明他所卖的东西，那么他应该是开了一家商店，故E项符合上下文。
小题3:A 根据上一句At first, chocolate was a luxury and only the rich people could afford it说明刚刚开始的时候，这种东西很贵，只有富人才消费得起，A项内容符合上下文的串联，指后面一般人也可以享受了。

小题5:D 根据前句The Cadbury factory is still in Birmingham and the chocolate produced there is eaten all over the world.说明现在这家工厂还存在，并生产。故D项每年很多人都取参观符合上下文。
