The debate about problem drinking and how to stop it
nowadays centres most on the working-class young. They are【M1】______
highly visible—and inaudible—as they clog city centres on【M2】______
Saturday nights. But a chapter in a forthcoming book, Intoxication
and Society, by Philip Withington, a Cambridge historian, argues
that it was the educated elite whom taught Britons how to drink to【M3】______
excess.
In the 17th century, England experienced a rise in
educational enrolment unsurpassedly until the early 20th century.
Illiteracy inclined and the universities of Cambridge and Oxford,【M4】______
as well as the Inns of Court and Chancery where barristers learned
their craft, brimming with affluent young men. This was the【M5】______
crucial period which modern drinking culture was formed. Mr【M6】______
Withington’s description of 17th-century drinking practices will
sound familiar to anybody who has been within a few miles of a
British university. It was characterised by two conflicting aims.
Men were to consume large qualities of alcohol in keeping with【M7】______
conventions of excess. Yet they also supposed to remain in control【M8】______
of their faculties, bantering and displaying wit. Students and
would-be lawyers formed drinking societies, where they learned
the social—and drinking—skills required of gentlemen.
A market in instruction quickly emerged. Collections filled
with jokes, quotes and fun facts proliferated, promised to teach, as【M9】______
John Cotgrave’s Wits Interpreter put it, "the art of drinking, by a
most learned method". Mirroring the standardisation of language
after the invention of the printing press, codes of intoxication were
disseminated to many a wider audience as society became more【M10】______
literate and censorship declined.
【M9】
选项
答案
promised一promising
解析
语法错误。promise并不是和谓语proliferated并列,不能加and,而是作伴随状语,修饰前面整个句子,因此要用promise的现在分词形式promising。
