美国人的酒文化
</p><p>美国的酒大致可分为啤酒、的鸡尾酒、的威士忌和葡萄酒。啤酒有淡啤酒和浓啤酒之别；包装采用瓶装、的听装和壶装。鸡尾酒和“混合饮料”含有很浓的酒精成分，饮用方式一般有加冰和不加冰两种，其配制方式各种各样。威士忌也是一种烈性酒，而且呈油状，分为黑麦威士忌和苏格兰威士忌。葡萄酒分为红、的白两种，但值得注意的是：标有“<span word="Chablis">Chablis</span>”商标的葡萄酒并非法国所产的无甜味的白葡萄酒，而是美国加利弗尼亚州生产的白葡萄酒，该酒在美国享有盛誉。 </p><p> <span word="Beer">Beer</span> </p><p> <span word="American">American</span> <span word="beer">beer</span>, <span word="with">with</span> <span word="very">very</span> <span word="few">few</span> <span word="exceptions">exceptions</span>, <span word="varies">varies</span> <span word="from">from</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="mediocre">mediocre</span>(普通的) <span word="to">to</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="terrible">terrible</span>. <span word="There">There</span> <span word="are">are</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="many">many</span> <span word="types">types</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="beer">beer</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="US">US</span>—"<span word="light">light</span>" <span word="and">and</span> "<span word="dark">dark</span>" <span word="are">are</span> <span word="two">two</span> <span word="terms">terms</span> <span word="commonly">commonly</span> <span word="used">used</span>. </p><p> <span word="It">It</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="therefore">therefore</span> <span word="normal">normal</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="order">order</span> <span word="beer">beer</span> <span word="simply">simply</span> <span word="by">by</span> <span word="brand">brand</span> <span word="name">name</span>. <span word="In">In</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="restaurant">restaurant</span>, <span word="in">in</span> <span word="fact">fact</span>, <span word="it">it</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="quite">quite</span> <span word="all">all</span> <span word="right">right</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="order">order</span> "<span word="a">a</span> <span word="beer">beer</span>", <span word="and">and</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="will">will</span> <span word="tell">tell</span> <span word="youwhat">youwhat</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="have">have</span>. </p><p> <span word="It">It</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="necessary">necessary</span>, <span word="either">either</span>, <span word="to">to</span> <span word="specify">specify</span> <span word="quantity">quantity</span> <span word="when">when</span> <span word="ordering">ordering</span> <span word="beer">beer</span>. <span word="If">If</span> <span word="it">it</span> <span word="comes">comes</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="bottles">bottles</span> <span word="or">or</span> <span word="cans">cans</span>, <span word="you">you</span> <span word="will">will</span> <span word="get">get</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="bottle">bottle</span> <span word="or">or</span> <span word="can">can</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="if">if</span> <span word="it">it</span>\'<span word="s">s</span> "<span word="on">on</span> <span word="tap">tap</span>"(可以随时取用的) <span word="you">you</span> <span word="will">will</span> <span word="get">get</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="glass">glass</span>, <span word="unless">unless</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="order">order</span> <span word="a">a</span> "<span word="pitcher">pitcher</span>"(有嘴和柄的大酒罐 <span word="i">i</span>.<span word="e">e</span>.<span word="a">a</span> <span word="jug">jug</span>). <span word="The">The</span> <span word="latter">latter</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="very">very</span> <span word="convenient">convenient</span> <span word="thing">thing</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="do">do</span>, <span word="since">since</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="can">can</span> <span word="then">then</span> <span word="take">take</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="jug">jug</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="glasses">glasses</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="your">your</span> <span word="table">table</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="keep">keep</span> <span word="filling">filling</span> <span word="up">up</span> <span word="without">without</span> <span word="going">going</span> <span word="back">back</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="bar">bar</span>.
