An anthropologist and a team of researchers have unveiled some of the mysterious(3)______ of British pubs—starting with the difficulty of getting a drink.

选项
A、flat
B、apart
C、back
D、behind
答案
A
解析
固定搭配题。根据本句的意思推测,要是不按照规则去做,可能就得不到原本希望领略到的经历和体验,fall flat意为“失败,全无效果”,符合文意,故[A]为正确答案。其他选项的组合为:fall a—part“崩溃,土崩瓦解”,fall back“后退,退却”,fall behind“落后”,此三项均不符合文意,故排除。
