Question

Coffee has become a popular drink in our culture. Most people have a coffee maker at home for guests who come to visit. It naturally contains caffeine (咖啡因), which people in today’s society have somewhat come to rely on (依靠) to provide them with energy.

In the workplace many people start their day with a cup of coffee, and then continue to drink it until it’s time to go home. Many meetings also begin with a cup of coffee --- which is why so many workplaces now have a steady flow of office coffee.

Coffee is unsurprisingly one of the most traded agricultural products in the world, supporting the economy in many countries. Coffee is made from the roasted(烤，烘，焙) seeds of coffee cherries, which grow on trees in over 70 countries. The seeds are roasted to different degrees depending on the flavors wanted, and then are brewed (泡，煮) to create the coffee drink. Coffee usually sold is already roasted, so that all you have to do is add hot water.

Coffee is classified according to its appearance--light, medium light, medium, medium dark, dark, or very dark.

People argue a lot about whether the effect of drinking coffee is positive or negative. Some people think that drinking too much coffee is bad for our health. But you can buy decaffeinated (脫去咖啡因的) coffee, which has a lot less caffeine. Most people, however, would not care about the negative effects of drinking coffee.

1.to provide them with energy”可知，人們依靠咖啡提供能量，文中用的名詞energy，make sb+形容詞作賓補(bǔ)，“讓某人怎么樣”，這里需要用其形容詞形式，故填energetic。

3.In the workplace many people start their day with a cup of coffee”可知，人們用一杯咖啡來開始一天的工作，故填in the workplace。

4.so that all you have to do is add hot water”可知，在喝咖啡之前，人們需要加水沖泡，故填water。

6.Coffee is classified according to its appearance”可知，咖啡是根據(jù)顏色來分類的，故填appearance。

7.People argue a lot about whether the effect of drinking coffee is positive or negative.”可知，這一段講的是人們對待咖啡的不同態(tài)度，one’s attitude(s) to/towards sth對......的態(tài)度，故填attitudes。

8.People argue a lot about whether the effect of drinking coffee is positive or negative.”可知，人們爭論的是喝咖啡對人們有好處還是有壞處，故填positive or negative。
