Question 23:

This one is to test the usage of "consider", you can not use "consider to be" or "consider as". The correct way is "consider sth." So C is right.

(C) A special Japanese green tea called genmai-cha contains brown rice and is considered a gourmet delicacy by most Japanese, though it is virtually unavailable outside Yokohama.

可我总觉着歧义:brown rice ？它也有可能被指代呀！？

Tianwan: 看见你以前的提问, 我也有此问题, 你现在有答案了吗?谢谢先!
