Josh Goodman invented a pretty obvious solution self-service beer taps. Goodman, 36, recalled the exact moment in late 2020 when his frustration boiled over. “I was hanging out with my friends at a Baltimore sports bar before an Orioles (金莺队) game,” he said. “We just couldnt get another beer served to us quickly.”Even more than annoyed, Goodman was struck by how much money the bar must be losing. Almost immediately, he got to work on a self-service beer concept. Within a few months, Goodman had launched Pour My Beer in Chicago (where hed relocated to be with his wife).He invested (投资) $ 20,000 of his own funds and partnered with a U.S. manufacturer to make beer tables with two to four self-service taps. In February 2020, Goodman landed his first client (客户): A Baltimore tavern. He spent the next two years growing the business and adding more bars and restaurants. In 2020, Pour My Beer introduced self-service “beer walls,” which let people pour their own beer from taps on a wall.Pour My Beer has expanded to over 200 restaurants and bars in 28 states and Canada. The concept will roll out in Chicagos OHare International Airport this week and in Italy and Brazil later this year. The tables start at $ 4,000 and the beer walls cost as much as $16,000. It generated more than $ 400,000 in sales in 2020 and doubled that in 2020. Goodman expects to take in close to $ 2 million in revenue this year (2020) which would make it the companys first profitable (赚钱的) year. “Our business customers tell us that theyve cut down on waste and theyre selling twice as much beer on average,” said Goodman.4. The underlined phrase “boiled over” in Paragraph 1 probably means .A. came to an end B. was extremely unbearableC. threw up D. was too hot5. Josh Goodman decided to invent the self-service beer taps when .A. His friends advised him to do so.B. He realized the loss in waiting for beers.C. He set up Pour My Beer in Chicago.D. His company started to make profits.6. What can we infer from the passage?A. Goodman was a businessman before he invented the self-service beer taps.B. Pour My Beer has expanded to over 200 restaurants in 28 states and Australia.C. Goodman did his business all by himself at first.D. Goodmans company will make more profits in the future.7. Which of the following can best describe Josh Goodman?A. far-sighted B. strong-willedC. kind-hearted D. bad-tempered【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. A【解析】5. B 推理题。根据文章第二段第一句Even more than annoyed, Goodman was struck by how much money the bar must be losing.可知让他萌生这个发明的原因除了喝不到啤酒之外，另外一个就是酒吧因为无法迅速给顾客提供啤酒，这样会损失很多的钞票。故B正确。6. D 推理题。根据文章最后一句Our business customers tell us that theyve cut down on waste and theyre selling twice as much beer on average, said Goodman.可知未来他们还会减少浪费，销量还会翻倍。也就是公司会挣更多的钱。故D正确。7. A 推理题。Josh Goodman和朋友一起喝酒的时候，酒吧无法迅速提供啤酒。他就从这样的一个小事中救看到了商机，而且立刻着手行动。这些都说明他是一个很有远见的人。BCD三项在文章中没有完全体现出来。故A正确。CMark felt that it was time for him, to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work.
