练习 2

According to his message, Bruno does not want chocolates because he:

is allergic to cocoa.

doesn't like chocolate.

wants to stay in shape.

不知道

According to his message, Bruno does not want chocolates because he:

is allergic to cocoa.

This isn't the best choice here. Bruno does not say that he has an "allergy" or "bad reaction" to chocolate or its main ingredient, cocoa.

doesn't like chocolate.

This isn't the best choice here. Bruno does not say that he dislikes chocolate.

wants to stay in shape.

This is the right answer. Bruno says "could you ask them NOT to leave those little chocolates on the pillow? I'm trying to look after my figure". To "look after one's figure" is to be careful about what one eats in order to "stay in shape" or "stay slim". Bruno doesn't want to get fat!
