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

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】______

sound familiar to anybody who has been within a few miles of a
British university. It was characterised by two conflicting aims.

would-be lawyers formed drinking societies, where they learned
the social—and drinking—skills required of gentlemen.

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. [br] 【M8】

答案
∧also一were
解析
词汇错误。be supposed to是固定搭配,表示“应该;认为必须;被期望”,且be动词应该放在also之前。全句意为“本以为他们能保持自控,谈笑风生”。
