Pub-goers will indicate in unspoken ways if they are interested in chatting. Concentrate on those who have bought drinks and are still standing idly at the bar. Those who have moved to sit at tables are probably not seeking company. Look for people with "open" body language, facing outwards into the room. Don’t ever introduce yourself with an outstretched hand and a big smile. The British, quite frankly, do not want to know your name and shake your hand or at least not until a proper degree of mutual interest has been well established.
Talk generally about the weather, the beer or the pub and at an appropriate moment, offer to your newfound companion a drink. This exchange is key to feeling part of the pub crowd and thereby getting to know more about Britain than its tourists spots. The ritual of sharingbuying rounds of drinks in turnis of great significance. This is because the British male is frightened of intimacy, finds it difficult to express friendly interest in other males and can be somewhat aggressive in his manner.
If you are having British friends or business contracts, one of your hosts will probably buy the first round, but you should be quick to offer the next. The right time to offer to buy a drink is when their glasses are still a quarter full. The line of "It’s my round What are you having?" may not be in your phrase book, but it is one of the most useful sentences in the English language.
选项
A、Because they are too mean to treat others.
B、Because they are too reserved to express intimacy.
C、Because that is what gentlemanship means.
D、Because that can make them integrate into the pub crowd.
答案
B
解析
Why buying rounds in turn is of great significance in Britain?这是因为英国男子害怕亲昵的行为,他们发现向其他男子表示友好是很难的,可能被认为其行为有些唐突,所以请大家喝酒就成为最好的交朋友的办法。
