问题     Visitors to Britain may find the best place to【C1】______local culture is in a traditional pub. But these friendly hostelries can be minefields of potential gaffes for the uninitiated.
    An anthropologist and a team of researchers have【C2】______some of the arcane rituals of British pubs—starting with the difficulty of getting a drink. Most pubs have no【C3】______— you have to go to the bar to buy drinks. A group of Italian youths waiting 45 minutes before they realized they would have to【C4】______their own. This may sound inconvenient, but there is a hidden purpose.
    Pub culture is designed to promote【C5】______in a society known for its reserve. Standing at the bar for service allows you to chat with others waiting to be served. The bar counter is possibly the only site in the British Isles in which friendly conversation with strangers is considered entirely【C6】______and really quite normal behaviour. "If you haven’t been to a pub, you haven’ t been to Britain." This tip can be found in a booklet, Passport to the Pub: The Tourists’ Guide to Pub Etiquette, a customer’ s【C7】______of conduct for those wanting to sample "a central part of British life and culture". The trouble is that if you do not【C8】______the local rules, the experience may fall flat. For example, if you are in a big group, it is best if only one or two people go to buy the drinks. Nothing【C9】______the regular customers and bar staff more than a gang of strangers【C10】______all access to the bar while they chat and dither about what to order.

选项
答案 A
解析 该空所在段明确提到“大多数英国酒吧都没有酒保，你得到吧台去买酒”。而此处提及一个具体事例，即“一伙意大利年轻人等了三刻钟才明白他们得自己——”，由此可推知，他们得自己去拿酒。A项fetch意为“拿取，取来”，符合句意。因此选择fetch“拿取，取来”。
