【分析】首先通读短文，理解短文核心内容：讲述可乐从药品转变为流行软饮料的历史。解题时需结合语境、语法规则（时态、固定搭配、被动语态等），从给定单词中选择合适的词，且每个词仅用一次。逐个分析每个空：1. 描述美国人对可乐的动作，可乐是饮料，like to后接动词原形，选drink；2. 时间是200年前，主语cola是单数，用be动词过去式was；3. 表示“花费时间做某事”，spend time (in) doing sth，过去式spent；4. 表示“混合”不同成分，过去式mixed；5. so far是现在完成时标志，主语I，用have succeeded；6. want to后接动词原形，结合语境是“拿（喝）”，选take；7. while引导过去进行时，主语he，用was waiting；8. suggest后接动名词，选using；9. begin后接不定式，选to become；10. 主语cola是动作承受者，一般现在时被动，选is sold。
【解析】1. 句意为“美国人喜欢喝它”，like to do sth是固定搭配，可乐属于饮料，故填drink；2. 时间状语200 years ago表过去，主语cola是单数，be动词用was；3. 固定搭配spend time doing sth（花费时间做某事），描述过去动作，用spent；4. 句意为“混合不同的油和成分”，描述过去动作，用mix的过去式mixed；5. so far（到目前为止）是现在完成时的标志，主语为I，故用have succeeded；6. want to do sth是固定搭配，结合语境“立刻喝它”，用take；7. while引导的时间状语从句，主句为过去时，从句用过去进行时，主语为he，故用was waiting；8. suggest doing sth是固定搭配（建议做某事），故用using；9. begin to do sth是固定搭配，意为“开始变得”，故用to become；10. 主语cola是“卖”的承受者，需用一般现在时被动语态，结构为am/is/are+过去分词，cola为单数，故用is sold。
