    问答题
    Practice 2  The British caricature themselves as a nation of insular xenophobes. This helps to disguise the fact that they are living in one of the world’s most international countries. Saloon bar patriots may be happy to read tabloid newspapers which take every opportunity to hurl abuse at continental neighbour. But the bar itself is likely to employ Australian staff, who serve Thai food and Mexican beer to people who work for Korean companies, wear Italian clothes and—though they still can’t manage a complete sentence in French—are beginning to talk like Americans. The bar is also likely to be foreign-owned: a Japanese bank, Nomura, recently became the largest pub landlord in Britain.  Though ethnic minorities make up less than 10% of the resident population, Britain is one of the easiest countries to enter, despite its insistence (often quoted as evidence of insularity) on maintaining border controls within the EU. All 300 million citizens of the European Economic Area can live and work in Britain if they choose without having to fill in so much as a form. At least 18 million of them will stop by Britain each year.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    英国人自嘲地把自己国家描绘成封闭和不愿与外界交往的国家。这种自我描绘恰恰掩盖了这样一个事实,即英国人所居住的国家是世界上最国际化的国家之一。雅座酒吧里的爱国分子们会很高兴地阅读那些利用一切机会漫骂欧洲大陆邻国的通俗小报。但他们所光顾的酒吧本身很可能雇佣澳大利亚员工。这些澳大利亚员工用泰国菜肴和墨西哥啤酒来招待顾客。尽管他们还不能用法语讲一句完整的句子,但这些身穿意大利服装、为韩国公司打工的顾客开始像美国人那样讲话。酒吧的店主也很有可能是外国人:一家名为野村的日本银行最近成了英国最大的酒吧店主。
    尽管少数民族的居民人口在英国不足10%,尽管英国坚持在欧盟内保持国与国之间的边境控制(这一点常被引用,以证明英国人的狭隘封闭性),但英国仍是世界上最容易入境的国家之一。欧洲经济区内的所有3亿公民,如果愿意的话,都可以在一张表格也不必填写的情况下在英国生活和工作。至少,他们中的1,800万人会每年顺道在英国作短暂逗留。
