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.

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

the social—and drinking—skills required of gentlemen.

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
