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、flock
B、gang
C、crowd
D、pile
答案
B
解析
固定搭配题。此处所填的词所构成的短语应能修饰strangers。[B]a gang of“一伙人,一队人”,强调一起来的一伙人,和前面的group一致,为正确答案。[A]a flock of“一群”一般用来修饰动物;[C]a crowd of“一群人”通常指相当多的人群,用在此处不确切;[D]a pile of“一堆,一大堆”不用于指人,故排除。
