答案解析
【文章大意】作者放学后还得去饭店打工，要招呼各种顾客，心里感到很是不爽。但是三位老太太来吃饭，饭后的一番话使作者重拾自信，决心努力拼搏。最终，经过努力，作者圆了上电视的梦想。
1.【解析】选D。考查形容词。此题属于原文词汇。放学后还得去上班作者心里感到很不高兴。后面的to make matters worse（使情况更为糟糕的是）说明此处填贬义词。而A项指身体很累。down在此意为“不高兴的，沮丧的”。在第17空后有from being down，也可以得到暗示。
2.【解析】选A。考查动词。作为服务员，我要与投诉的顾客打交道，处理他们投诉的问题。此处的deal with意为“与……打交道”。
3.【解析】选B。考查动词。seat为及物动词，“坐下”应说be seated，而A项sit为不及物动词，不能用于被动语态中。
4.【解析】选D。考查动词。顾客投诉饭菜质量、投诉坐的地方太大或太小，此类小事常使服务员感到很烦。要注意此空后的but所表示的是转折关系。but后说“我们都设法成功处理了顾客的投诉”，暗示but前应该是贬义的词。
5.【解析】选A。考查名词。此处的us和后面的we指“饭店里的员工”，故A项正确。此处的us与employees为同位语关系。
6.【解析】选C。考查名词。前面的by the windows和后面的near where都说明此处填的是“地方（spot）”，the very spot强调“就是那个地方”。
7.【解析】选A。考查名词。服务员在客人走后，要将吃剩的菜端走，然后收拾桌子，供后来的人就餐。所以，此处要选A项。
8.【解析】选C。考查名词。在饭店中，进进出出的是顾客，在房子中来回穿梭忙碌的是服务员，故C项正确。
9.【解析】选C。考查连词。这些老太太是来吃饭的，而现在却看我如何工作，故前后两句间在逻辑上是转折关系。
10.【解析】选B。考查连词。后面的to make sure every table was clean and ready for the next customers表示目的，故此处指我怎么做才能达到此目的。
11.【解析】选A。考查动词。根据后面的took their plates back to the kitchen可知她们已经吃完了。且第13空后有they were leaving暗示。
12.【解析】选B。考查名词。她们在临走前，跟我聊了一会儿，问我有关学校的情况、在学校学得怎么样、在哪个年级及将来的打算。
13.【解析】选C。考查连词。此处as表示“当……时候”。
14.【解析】选A。考查形容词。后面的gentle（温和的）说明B、C项错误，而D项没有A项贴切。她们要走时，其中一位老太太用一种自信且温和的声音对我说话。选A也能说明对方确实认为作者会成功的，而不是虚情假意。
15.【解析】选C。考查名词。此题属于原词复现。
16.【解析】选B。考查名词。“相信自己”也需要“勇气（courage）”。
17.【解析】选B。考查动词短语。 三位老太太使我重新获得自信的勇气，并使我的情绪不再沮丧。put down“记下；镇压”；pick up“拾起，捡起”；take over“接管”；point out“指明（出）”。
18.【解析】选B。考查名词。三位老太太给了我要继续努力的理由。在她们的鼓舞下，我决心继续努力。
19.【解析】选A。考查名词。此题属于原词复现。根据最后一空前的a student-produced television可知。
20.【解析】选C。考查名词。作者现在是联合主持人（co-anchor），所以肯定是电视节目（show）的联合主持人。
