不论单身与否，泡吧是许多人最喜欢的娱乐活动。去酒吧的话，有的人prefer to stay in one place，而有些人则喜欢go to more than one pub on a night out。一晚上去好多酒吧，每个酒吧都坐上一会儿，然后再去其它酒吧，我们管这种在酒吧间串来串去的行为就叫做pub crawl。
Pub crawl 起源于19世纪，它也可以叫做a gin crawl 或是bar-hopping. It is the social act of a group of people drinking in a number of pubs in a single night。
The tradition of pub crawl is to walk from pub to pub with designated tee shirts for the bartenders to sign to show they were there. A new trend in this social networking is where the pub crawlers have anyone they meet also sign their shirts, kind of like a myspace friends network with ink and cloth.
至于用法上，你可以说we're going on a pub crawl 或是we're doing a pub crawl。
对话：
A: What are you doing on Saturday then?
B: I'm going on a pub crawl in town with some friends。
Do you enjoy pub crawls? Have you ever been on a pub crawl? 如果你没串过酒吧，为什么不试试呢？mall rat
一到周末，许多年轻人都会去mall买东西。有的人也不见得想买什么，他们只是愿意呆在商场消磨时间。人们把经常到mall去逛的年轻人叫做：mall rat。它是一个俚语用法，指的是 a young person who loiters about shopping malls，即指那些老喜欢到购物中心去逛的年轻人。
例句：Hey, there's always something to do there for us mall rats. At least a dozen fast food places where we can buy a burger, a slice of pizza, ice cream--whatever. Ten different movie theaters. And a whole lot of people to watch, you know? I can, like, spend the whole day there, you know?
又如：Sure, I used to be a typical mall rat hanging around watching the crowds, especially the girls. But then I went out for basketball, made the team and I don't have time to waste anymore!
