What is the essential feature of pub culture according to the speaker?
The English Pub
England has, over the years, become known for its pub culture. Pubs (short for Public Houses)grace almost every street and are known for their tradition and heritage. They date back to the time of Roman occupation in England, when the Italians had their taverns in which they would drink alcoholic beverages and socialize. When the Anglo-Saxons were in command, they had alehouses, which served a similar purpose. Today, pubs are still social hubs in which alcohol is consumed and friends are made. Some pubs also serve meals, which are usually hearty, tasty dishes that are simple and filling. The pub culture dictates that there are, invariably, ’ locals’. These ones usually live and/or work close to the pub and frequent it, often sticking to the same drink each time they come. The various locals get to know one another and establish a warm culture of camaraderie. The pub is owned by a landlord.
Some pubs offer entertainment, invariably keeping its drinkers there for longer. This may include something simple, such as a television that shows sports, or something more exciting, like a darts board or a pool table. Some even have stand-up comedy performances, karaoke or strip shows. In England, smoking has been banned in all indoor areas. Therefore, it is now illegal to smoke inside the pub or at the bar. Beer is the most commonly drunk beverage at pubs. Therefore, they are usually well-stocked with many different brands and types of beer, both bottled and on tap (draught). In addition to ale, pubs also stock various wines as well as hard tack, such as brandy, whiskey, gin, cane, and so on. By law, pubs can only open at 11:00 and can only serve drinks until 23:00 from Monday to Saturday and until 22: 30 on Sunday. Nobody under the age of 18 is allowed to consume alcohol in England and such ones will not be served.
选项
A、Local people frequent the pubs.
B、Pubs are usually owned by a landlord.
C、Pubs serve tasty dishes.
D、People get to know each other in the pub.
答案
A
解析
根据原文“The pub culture dictates that there are,invariably,‘locals’.These ones usually live and/or work close to the pub and frequent it,often sticking to the same drink each time they come…”可知,酒吧一般和当地人关联紧密,去酒吧消遣的都是当地人,因此正确选项为A。
