【解析】

由常识可知咖啡应该是先制作然后再卖，由selling确定使用making。

根据句子结构可知此处表示的是具体的钱数，因此表达为nine hundred dollars；当有确切的数字修饰hundred时形式不变。

分析语境可知此处讲的是挣的钱的去处，一是学生们的报酬，然后剩下的就给了当地的一个年轻人项目，因此为the rest of。

分析句子结构可知usually“通常的”符合语境。

工作地点是机场，因此购买的人应该是要乘飞机的旅客或是一些机组人员，因此使用fly on the planes修饰many people。

根据空后的宾语从句，可知think“认为”符合语境；由主语one customer第三人称单数，确定谓语也是三单形式。

此句缺少主语，对应的是前句中的some are unhappy，因此使用人称代词they代替some。

句意：在获得学分的同时，学生们也在学习如何经营生意。因此使用how。

根据enjoy the work以及it took some time to learn how to do it可知使用although“尽管，虽然”连接句子。

根据下句的提示词可知此处使用mistakes。
