American Pub Culture 美国酒吧文化

Typical American pubs, often known as'bars'offer a place for inner-city workers to relax after a hard day's work and meet up with friends. A focal point of this type of pub is the television set, which will be tuned into news programs, serial television shows and sports programs, such as baseball or American football.Many of these pubs have large-screen televisions, and use these to entice customers in.

传统的美国酒吧,常常被叫做"BAR",它们为城市中辛苦工作一天的人们提供一个放松身心和朋友聚会的场所。在这种酒吧中最重要的就是电视机,经常播放新闻节目、电视连续剧以及像棒球和足球这类体育节目。许多酒吧会放置一台大荧幕的电视机,用他们招揽顾客。

American pubs are a great place to go for a good meal and a glass of beer or wine with friends. They usually offer a full menu including such things as hamburgers, steaks, salads and snacks.A lot of these pubs also feature a comprehensive selection of imported wines and beers as well as local beer on tap.During the day, when a sports final is on television, the pub can get pretty noisy.Many American pubs also offer live music at nighttime, which can be great for dancing or just background noise.

美国酒吧是用餐或者和朋友们喝一杯的好地方。他们通常会提供一份包罗了汉堡、牛排、沙拉和各种小吃的内容全面的菜单。许多酒吧还会以提供各种进口的葡萄酒、啤酒以及装在附带龙头的酒桶里的地方啤酒等广泛选择为特色。在白天,如果电视里正在播放一场体育比赛的总决赛,酒吧里会十分吵闹。在晚间,酒吧会播放生动的音乐,可以跳舞或者只是作为背景音乐。
