问题     I don’ t know what it is about English pubs that I find so disappointing.【C1】______, pubs are supposed to be the Englishman’ s【C2】______meeting place, where he can get together with a few friends【C3】______a glass of beer and talk about football, or horse racing, or business or whatever else【C4】______his thoughts. You notice that the pub is the Englishman’ s meeting place, not the Englishwoman ’ s. Even in our liberated times it is still not quite【C5】______for a woman to go into a pub alone: she must have a man to【C6】______and protect her. Perhaps that’ s partly【C7】______pubs disappoint me—they are【C8】______mainly to provide for male interests, which are often pretty【C9】______. I think this male-dominated atmosphere【C10】______reminds me of being back at school, or in the army, neither of which is an【C11】______I much want to relive.
    However, I’ m【C12】______in the minority. Most Englishmen have their local, where they can escape from the【C13】______of family life or work, and if they are【C14】______, tell their troubles to a pretty barmaid. 【C15】______, many men dream of retiring from their nine-to-five jobs and【C16】______a little country pub, where they imagine they’ll be the【C17】______of a seven-nights-a-week party. This【C18】______usually dies when they think of having to clean up spilled beer at one o’ clock in the morning.
    Still, there’ s a pub for every type of man, and a man for every type of pub. And I must【C19】______that, for someone who doesn’t like them, I’ve【C20】______a lot of time in pubs of various kinds.
