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】______

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】

∧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”。
