Britain is not just one country and one people, even if some of its inhabitants think so. Britain is, in fact, a nation which can be divided into several separate parts, each part being an individual country with its own language character and cultural traditions. Thus, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales( and even Cornwell perhaps )do not claim to belong to "England" Welsh (or Cornish )and many of them prefer to speak their own native tongue which in turn can’ t be understood by the others.
These cultural minorities have been Britain’ s original inhabitants. In varying degrees they have managed to preserve their national identity, their particular customs and ways of life. This is probably even more true of the industrialism as the border areas have been. The Celtic races are said to be Scots would rather forget about their reputation for excessive thrift and for their singing. The Celtic temperament as a whole produces numerous writers Welsh Dylan Thomas, to mention but a few.
What is mentioned as being one of the probable reason for preserving traditional life?
选项
A、Ethnic custom.
B、A specialized life style.
C、The growth of industrialism.
D、Geographical isolation.
答案
B
解析
由文末给出的“Celti races”的民族生活习惯可以看出,其民族传统生活的维持关键在于“ethnic individualism”,即“a specialized life style”。
