Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. If you're hungry and walk into a cafe, you're likely to find a muffin (as pictured here) with which of the following fruits that also goes well with pancakes or oatmeal?

Answer: Blueberry

Blueberry is a compound word since it combines "blue" and "berry". These small fruits are very healthy because they are high in antioxidants (which help the body protect the cells), can help lower blood pressure, and are great for improving memory and brain function. They are also rich in flavor, which is why they can be added to a wide variety of foods like pies, jams, and muffins.
2. Which of the following words could you add before "boy" to find the person in charge of clearing your plates after you're finished eating at the cafe?

Answer: Bus

A busboy, also known as a busser, is a staff member at food establishments who assists waiters with tasks like picking up dirty dishes from tables and taking them to the dishwasher, carrying trays with food from the kitchen to the dining room, and cleaning tables and other restaurant areas. Busboys are an important part of the hospitality industry because they allow waiters to more attentively serve their guests. Bussers are also important because the pace at which they reset tables and take plates to be cleaned can determine how fast an establishment can serve new customers.
3. What delicious drink can be prepared at a cafe using simple ingredients like ice cream, milk, and chocolate?

Answer: Milkshake

A milkshake is a refreshing drink made of a base of ice cream and milk. Many different flavorings can be added to the mixture depending on what you like: chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, Oreo cookies, and more! To make a simple milkshake, all you need is to put ice cream and milk in a blender or shaker and combine for a few minutes. This is a great option to order at a cafe, but it certainly isn't the only milk-based drink you could order there: they also have hot chocolate, lattes, and chai tea!

A marocchino is a strong espresso coffee served with powdered chocolate and milk foam, so you could definitely see one at a regular cafe. A screwdriver or a sidecar would be more difficult to find there since they both contain alcohol, but many European cafes do offer alcoholic drinks in their menu.
4. To form a new word that represents an object a businessman could be using to work at the cafe, which other word would you add before "top"?

Answer: Lap

The laptop derives its name from its convenient size that allows you to fit this portable computer on your lap (though the word "lap" could also mean a full circuit ran during a race). Laptops were invented in the 1980s and offered a novel solution to big and heavy computers.

This innovation and future improvements on it were extremely helpful to people in all age groups, since a portable computer gave them the ability to work or study from anywhere in the world without having to worry about multiple cables or hardware.
5. Which of the following people, tasked with protecting you, could you see at a cafe enjoying a donut, a food that is stereotypically associated with their profession?

Answer: Policeman

Police officers have a difficult but important job in our society. They help keep us safe by enforcing the law, monitoring traffic, and protecting us from criminals. Coffee and donuts are often the first food that comes to mind when thinking of police officers, and an article in Time Magazine from 2017 helps explain why: police work long hours and often at night, which means food options are limited when they are craving something. Donuts and coffee tend to be available at cafes or diners that stay open at times when other restaurants don't.
6. If you're drinking coffee at the cafe but want it to taste much sweeter, you could add a good amount of sugar if you use a tool named after the combination of "table" and which other word?

Answer: Spoon

If you were to add sugar to your coffee, you would most likely use a teaspoon rather than a tablespoon since the former is smaller. However, if the coffee tastes too strong, you might want to add a little bit more sweetener and use a tablespoon. Though both teaspoons and tablespoons can be used as terms to refer to day-to-day silverware, special spoons with different sizes are sold to reflect different measures of tablespoons (tbsp) and teaspoons (tsp), usually for baking purposes.
7. If you see people in possession of the "New York Times", the "Wall Street Journal", or the "Washington Post" when you walk into a cafe, you would know that they are holding which of the following items?

Answer: Newspaper

Cafes are a great place to do some reading! You can take a book or a newspaper while you drink a hot coffee and stay there for hours. Many people choose to accompany their coffee with a newspaper so they can catch up on current events while enjoying what may well be the first drink of their morning.

There are many different newspapers out there that you can read to know what's happening around the world, some of the most popular being "New York Times", the "Wall Street Journal", and the "Washington Post" (in the U.S.) or "The Guardian" and "The Independent" in England. Over the years, many newspapers have opted to publish their content online in addition to their print versions, or even discontinue their paper format altogether to post all their articles on their internet website.
8. Which word, a place where you and your family may live, could you add after "coffee" to create a synonym for "cafe"?

Answer: House

Europeans use the term "cafe" when referring to these establishments, but they can also be called coffee shops or coffeehouses. In fact, using the latter term may be helpful to specify the kind of shop you want to visit, given that the definition of "cafe" may expand to include more dining options.

There are coffeehouses of all sizes and styles around the world. Countries like Italy, France, and Turkey all take pride in their unique coffee products.
9. Adding "cup" to the end of which of the following words gives you a type of cup for a caffeinated beverage that you could find at a cafe, other than a coffee cup?

Answer: Tea

A teacup is slightly smaller than most coffee cups (one of the exceptions being espresso, which is served in a smaller cup than americano). While tea can certainly be enjoyed in larger cups, it is traditional (especially in countries like China) to drink small amounts of tea in specially-designed teacups that don't contain too much liquid.

This helps preserve the temperature and flavor of the drink. There are many types of teas, including chamomile, cinnamon, Earl Grey, mint, and orange.
10. Cafes try to make their customers feel as cozy as possible, which is why many have which of the following "places" inside to create a warm atmosphere?

Answer: Fireplace

In cities that have very cold weather, restaurants and coffeehouses offer their guests a warm place to enjoy their meals and drinks by adding fireplaces to their establishments. As long as someone is constantly making sure there is enough wood and that all safety measures are met, a fireplace can be an excellent feature for cafes looking to attract customers.

When a guest finishes their hot coffee, they can stay warm by relaxing and sitting next to a crackling fireplace.
