问题补充：
At the end of my senior year of high school, I got a job working at a local coffee shop．I thought the job would be easy and stress-free．I pictured myself pouring the best coffees, making delicious doughnuts (炸面包圈), and becoming friends with regular customers．
I wasn’t expecting the people with enormous orders, the women who complained that the coffee was much too creamy (含乳脂的), or the men who wanted their iced coffees remade again and again until they reached perfection．I couldn’t seem to please anyone．
One rainy day, one of my regular customers came in looking upset．He said he felt like getting in bed, pulling the sheets up over his head, and staying there for a few years．I knew exactly how he felt．
Before he left, I handed him a bag along with his iced coffee．He was surprised, since he hadn’t ordered anything but coffee．I had given him his favorite type of droughnut．
“It’s on me,” I told him．“Have a nice day．”
He smiled and thanked me before heading back out into the rain．
The next day, it was still raining．I spent my afternoon hanging out the window handing people their orders．I was completely wet and freezing cold．Worse, no one was tipping that day．Every time I looked into our empty tip jar, I grew more depressed．
In the evening, the customer from the day before drove up to the window．He handed me a pink rose and a note．He said that not many people took time to care about others and he was glad there were still people like me in the world．With a friendly wave, he drove away．
I ran to the back of the shop and read the note．It read:
Christine,
Thanks for being so sweet, kind and thoughtful yesterday．It is so nice to meet someone who’s indeed nice．Please don’t change your ways! Have a great day! –Hank
After that, whenever I felt depressed or sick of coffee, I thought of Hank and his kindness．Then I would smile, hold my head up high, clear my throat and ask politely, “How can I help you?”

答案：
(答案→)45---48 DCAB
解析：
45．D考查推理判断。从文章第1、2段的叙述看，作者作为高中生去打工，原本以为那里的情况会很美好，结果发现，顾客如潮，人们的埋怨多多，“我似乎不能让任何人感到满意”。由此判断，作者遇到的实际情况与想像的相去甚远。
46．C考查推理判断。从文章开头的叙述看，作者在咖啡店打工，这个人是这里的熟客，这次来只买了咖啡，其他什么都没买，由此判断选C，来此的目的是买咖啡。
47．A考查细节理解。从这个人给作者写的便条内容可知选A，因为作者在他困难的时候给了他鼓励。
48．B考查主题大意。本文通过作者在咖啡店打工的一段经历告诉我们，我们要用自己对他人的关爱换得别人的关怀。
