Ashare  Bchance

Cturn   Dlead

 

C 【解析】选C。本题中四个选项均为常见的名词,考查take分别与这四个名词构成的短语的含义。take a share 分担……,为……出力;take a chance冒险;take a turn转弯,转;(情况、形势等)转变;take a lead 领先,带头。根据本句关键信息for the better 可知讲的是有所好转,变得更好。句意为“有了源于其他食品文化的灵感,美国饮食文化可以变得更好”。朗文辞典上也有类似的例句:The President’s fortunes seem,at last,to have taken a turn for the better(=started to improve).总统的时运似乎终于出现转机了。
