So popular that it has inspired an idiom
Vocabulary: coffee 词汇: 咖啡
Do you drink a lot of coffee? The water boiling in the kettle, the aroma, the first mouthful from the cup in the morning – so many people see it as part of a ritual that it inspired an expression in English: 'Wake up and smell the coffee!'
I read the other day in the New Scientist magazine that coffee contains a stimulant, caffeine, which is the planet's most popular "psychoactive drug". In the United States alone, more than 90% of adults are estimated to use it every day. That's a lot of people!
