Visitors to Britain may find the best place to sample local culture is in a traditional pub. But these friendly hostelries can be【C1】______of potential discourtesies and offenses for the【C2】______.
An anthropologist and a team of researchers have unveiled some of the mysterious【C3】______ of British pubs—starting with the difficulty of getting a drink. Most pubs have【C4】______ waiters—you have to go to the bar to buy drinks. A group of Italian youths waiting 45 minutes 【C5】______ they realized they would have to 【C6】______their own drinks. This may sound inconvenient, but there is a【C7】______purpose.
Pub culture is designed to【C8】______ sociability in a society【C9】______its reserve. Standing at the bar for service【C10】______you to chat with others waiting to【C11】______. The bar counter is possibly the only【C12】______in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered【C13】______appropriate and really quite normal behaviour. " If you havent been to a pub, you haven’t been to Britain. " This tip can be found in a【C14】______, Passport to the Pub: The Tourists’ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a customers’ code of conduct for those wanting to 【C15】______" a central part of British life and culture".

选项
A、minefields
B、battlefields
C、paradises
D、occasions
答案
A
解析
名词辨析题。从此旬中的potential discourtesies and offenses可判断,对于酒吧不了解的人,一不小心就会失礼、惹事,所以好客的酒吧可能会成为潜在的“危险地带”。[A]minefields意为“地雷区,危险地带”,符合句意,故为正确答案。[B]battlefields“战场”、[C]paradises“天堂,乐园”和[D]occasions“场合,时刻”均不符合文意,故排除。
