Coffee-houses were called "~penny university" because__________.A、you were charged only a penny for a cup of coffee in the coffee-house
B、you could learn a lot by spending just a little in the coffee-house
C、you could meet a lot of university teachers in the coffee-house
D、you could gain access to the Internet in the coffee-house
【正确答案】：B
【题目解析】：细节判断题。题干问为什么咖啡屋被称为“分币大学”。首先定位“penny university”，然后看到前文提及中产阶级工人could afford to spend a few pence a day on coffee。文中a few pence和B选项中的spending just a little意思接近。另外说到咖啡屋，文章写到：Coffee-houses provided a forum for education, debate and self-improvement.这句话和B选项中的you could learn a lot意思接近。故而B是正确答案。
