Pub culture is designed to promote communication in a society known for its quietness. Standing at the bar for service allows you to chat with others waiting to be served. The bar counter is possibly the only site in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely appropriate and really quite normal behavior.
“If you haven't been to a pub, you haven't been to Britain.” This tip can be found in a booklet The Tourist's Guide to Pub Etiquette(礼节), which can be seen as a “passport” to the pub for those wanting to know about “a central part of British life and culture”. The trouble is that if you do not follow the local rules, the experience may fall flat. For example, if you are in a big group, it is best if only one or two people go to buy the drinks. Nothing annoys the regular customers and bar staffs more than a crowd of strangers blocking all access to the bar while they chat and argue about what to order.
1.Why is the British pub the best place to experience local culture?
A.Because it is a potential place for all the educated to gather.
B.Because it is a traditional place with a lot of local strangers.
C.Because the educated can relax themselves entirely there.
D.Because you can meet different kinds of local people there.
答案:D 推理判断题。文中第二段和第三段提到当人们遇到困难时都愿意去酒吧喝一杯,在你等待服务的过程中可以遇到不同类型的人,因此D项符合题意。
