Pub Etiquette in Britain
英国的酒吧礼仪
在公共场所,英国人讲究先来后到,但在生意兴隆的酒吧里看不到排队的现象,整个酒吧井然有序。如果有一天你到英国酒吧消遣,你应该注意些什么呢?
Amazingly for British, who love queues, there is no formal line-up-the bar staff are skilled at knowing whose turn it is. You are permitted to try to attention, but there are rules about how to do this. Do not call out, tap coins on the counter, snap your finger or wave like a drowning swimmer. Do not scowl or sign or roll your eyes. And whatever you do, do not ring the bell hanging behind the counter-this is used by the landlord to signal closing time. The key thing is to catch the bar worker’s eyes. You could also hold an empty glass or some money, but do not wave them about. Do adopt an expectant, hopeful, even slightly anxious facial expression. If you look too contented and complacent, the bar staff may assume you are already being served.
Always say“please”and try to remember some of the British bar staffs hates. They do not like people to keep others waiting while they make up their minds. They don’t like people standing idly against the bar when there are a lot of customers waiting for service. And they do not like people who wait until the end of the order before asking for such drinks as Guinness stout which take considerably longer to pour than other drinks. If you follow these tips you should be able to buy yourself a drink. Speaking of tips, you should never offer the bar staff a cash gratuity. The correct behavior is to offer them a drink. Pubs pride themselves on their egalitarian. A tip in cash would be a reminder of their service role, whereas the offer of a drink is a friendly gesture.
Notes
scowl v. 怒容;皱眉 expectant adj. 期待的
complacent adj. 自满的 idly adv. 无效地;懒洋洋地
stout n. 烈性黑啤酒 gratuity n. 小费
egalitarian n. & adj. 平等;平均主义(的)
Which statement is true?
A. The British bar staffs dislike people who make up their minds immediately.
B. They like people who can wait in line.
C. They hope people who want to have another drink ring the bell hanging behind the counter.
D. If you offer them a drink to express your tips, they will feel happy.

One summer day as I was heading to the teaching building I heard someone call my name. I turned around and I saw Philip ,a counselor(顾问) at our admissions office(招生办公室), standing with another young man, Philip introduced me to him, Stephen, and reminded me that Stephen would be taking one of my classes.
Stephen looked at me. With a somewhat painful expression, he asked if my class was going to be hard and if he would be able to pass. I introduced all the things that he would be expected to learn. As we talked, I saw Stephen’s eyes getting big with fear.
I told him to do all of his assignments, and to hand them in on time. Rather than being overwhelmed(压倒) by all of the work, I told him the most successful students made a master calendar of all the assignments so they could plan their workload.
As the fall semester went on, I learned more of Stephen’s story. It had taken him longer to finish the assignments than most young people. Family members , including his mother ,kept reminding him that he was a failure. But he kept at it and didn’t take them to heart. He told me that before coming to our college, no one believed he could manage it.
Stephen didn’t become an A student. Still, he managed to pass all of his courses by being in class every day, turning in all of his assignments on time and breaking down his study into bite-sized parts. By passing course after course he began to gain a measure of self-esteem.
On his graduation day, he walked up to me, and said “Thank you.”
67. According to Stephen’s questions to the author, we know that Stephen_________.
A. wasn’t very confident about himself.
B. didn’t want to attend the author’s class.

D. couldn’t pass the author’s exam.
68. Compared with other students, Stephen____________.
A. arranged his workload better.
B. failed fewer times than them.
C. spent more time on study.
D. handed his work earlier.
69. According to the passage, the author__________.
A. wouldn’t have met Stephen without the introduction of Philip
B. told Stephen how to deal with his study.
C. helped Stephen to get an A in his class.
D. didn’t believe that Stephen could study in college
