解析【小題1】 B call on sb.拜訪某人。這里指一群畢業(yè)生去拜訪當年的老教授。
【小題2】A shortly after“……之后不久”。句意：他們到后不久，就開始抱怨……
【小題3】 D 根據(jù)下文中的 27 of your problems and stress可知，此處應(yīng)該是抱怨工作和生活中的壓力。
【小題4】 A 此處意為“為了招待他們咖啡”。offer sb. sth.“給某人提供某物”，在意思上等同于provide/supply sb. with sth.。
【小題5】C with“帶著；伴隨；有”。句意：教授拿著咖啡和杯子從廚房回來。
【小題6】 C them在這里指代的是咖啡杯子。
【小題7】B 文中只涉及了教授和學生們。因此是教授讓學生們自己倒咖啡喝。
【小題8】A 根據(jù)上下文可知不是只有兩個學生；按常理應(yīng)該是所有的學生都倒好了咖啡。
【小題9】D 根據(jù)下文的 25 behind the plain and cheap ones可知，學生挑選的是一些好看的、昂貴的杯子，留下的是普通的、便宜的。
【小題10】A leave behind“把……留/剩下來”，是固定短語。
【小題11】 C while此處意為“盡管；雖然”。句意：雖然你們想要最好的杯子很正常，然而這卻成了你們所有問題和壓力的來源。
【小題12】A 根據(jù)語境可知，你所選擇的雖是最好的，但卻成了你麻煩和壓力的源頭(source)。
【小題13】 B what引導主語從句，表示“你們想要的東西”。
【小題14】 D 由句意“你們想要的是咖啡不是杯子，可是你們卻下意識地去拿最好的杯子”可知，前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。
【小題15】 A 根據(jù)上下文可知，他們雖然拿了杯子，但是還是看著別人手里的杯子，而不是咖啡或其他。
【小題16】B 根據(jù)下文的 32 tools to hold and contain life…可知，作者把生活比作咖啡。
【小題17】 C 工作、金錢、社會地位只是盛生活的工具。just“只是；僅僅”。
【小題18】 B 工作、金錢、社會地位改變不了生活的性質(zhì)。
【小題19】 D 根據(jù)上下文可知，只注意杯子，就享受不了杯子里的咖啡了。
【小題20】 A 承接上文的…by concentrating only on the cup, we 34 to enjoy the coffee God has provided.，享受你的咖啡，而不是杯子。

“A lot of people haven’t had any offers yet,” she says． “I said I already had one．”
“Wait,” Dick says． “Are you to be me?”
“No, I have my own login details now,” she says．
“How do you know he isn’t his own mother pretending to be him?” Dick says．
Earlier, when we all sat down to lunch, Dick, who had been to parties the evening, came back．
“Who were there?” my wife asks Dick． “What was it like?”
“It was OK．” he says．
“Not good enough,” she says． “What was the worst thing happened?” My wife’s continued question a deepening, boring silence． I start to eat faster． There is a long, highly pause in the conversation．
“So,” she says , “was it a kissing party?”
“Oh my God!” shouts Dick, his fork． “What is wrong with you? Why are you like this?”
Surrounded by further scolds, lunch comes to a hurried end． Dick finds himself with clearing up． , the running of water and the sound of washing plates are the only sounds in the room．
“ at any time you’re prepared to apologize for being rude,” she says, “you can go and finish watching the football．”
“Are you joking?” he shouts． “No way! Why I apologize to you?”
He pauses to look into the bottom of a pan, and a smile across his face． “What I mean is, I’m really very sorry,” he says, dropping the pan into the sink and running from the room． “Bye!”
“You don’t have to worry,” my wife says． “In a ’s time, you’ll be 18 and I won’t be able to do this to you any more．”
“Really?” he says．
