Luckily, this coffee-brewing alarm clock could make those few struggling minutes practically disappear. An alarm clock that brews a fresh pot of coffee as soon as you wake up actually exists, and you can buy it right now. Thanks to the Barisieur, your morning time will never be the same. Here’s how it works: Before you go to bed, fill the glass container with water and pour ground coffee into the filter (过滤器). Not a black coffee drinker? Not to worry --- special drawers keep your cream cold and store your sugar, too. Then, just set your alarm and go to sleep. This machine will take care of the rest.

Coffee lovers should act fast and put in a pre-order on the website now, paying just $300. Otherwise, you have to wait until it hits stores and pay $420. Owning one of these clocks will be totally worth it. Nothing says “seize the day” quite like waking up to a pot of freshly brewed coffee, after all.

A．To show making coffee is challenging. B．To show coffee can make us feel better. C．To show the coffee-brewing alarm clock is great. D．To show it is difficult to get up early in the morning. 2、What does the underline
