The underlined phrase “gives us a kick” in Paragraph 1 probably means ______.

A.makes us refreshed

B.hits us with the foot

C.breaks our legs

参考解析：

词义猜测题。根据文章第一段第四句“Coffee contains caffeine, something that raise our awareness, keeps us from falling asleep”可知，咖啡含有能够让人清醒，防止人睡着的成分——咖啡因。give us a kick与keep us from falling asleep并列，意思相近，由此推断，gives us a kick指的是“使人恢复精神”，故选A。
