Part Two Reading Comprehension
Questings 11-15 are based on the following passage:

Happy hours are not necessarily happy , nor do they last for an hour , but they have become a part of the ritual of the office worker and businessman..

On weekdays in pubs and bars throughout America, there is the late afternoon happy hour. The time may vary from place to place, but usually it is held from four to seven. After the workday is finished , office workers in large cities and small towns take a relaxing pause and do not go directly home . They head off instead for the nearest bar or pub to be with friends , co-workers and colleagues . Within minutes the pub is filled to capacity with businessmen and secretaries, office clerks and stock executeives. They gather around the bar like birds around a fountain or forest animals around a watering hole and chat about the trifles of office life or matters more personal. This is their desert garden , the place to relieve the day’s stress at the officee.

At these happy hours , social binding occurs between people who share the same workplace or similar professions.
