单选题The following aspects explain why Spaniards have a minor alcohol problem EXCEPT ______.A small beer glassB family drinkingC high social tolerance for alcohol consumptionD early drinking years

Drunken driving, sometimes called America's socially accepted form of murder, has become a national epidemic. Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed hy
drunken drivers, adding up an incredible 350,000 over the past decade.
A drunken driver is usually defined as one with a 0.10 blood alcohol content or roughly three beers, glasses of wine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours. Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American alcohol image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken slaughter has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially involving young children, that public opinion is no longer so tolerant.
Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18 to 20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21.Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop"responsible attitudes" about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink.
Tough new laws have led to increased arrests and in many areas already, to a marked decline in fatalities. Some states are also penalizing bars for serving customers too many drinks.
As the fatalities continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years' national prohibition of alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the"noble experiment". They forget that legal prohibition didn't stop drinking, but encouraged political corruption and organized crime. As with the booming drug trade generally, there is no easy solution.
Which of the following four drivers can be defined as an illegal driver?

A.A sixteen-year-old boy who drank a glass of wine three hours ago.
B.An old lady who took four shots of whisky in yesterday's party.
C.A policeman who likes alcohol very much.
D.A pregnant woman who drank a beer an hour ago.

In what may be bad news for bars and pubs,a European research group has found that people drinking alcohol outside of meals have a significantly higher risk of cancer in the mouth and neck than do those taking their libations with food.Luigino Dal Maso and his colleagues studied the drinking pattems of 1 ,500 patients from four cancer studies and another 3,500 adults who had never had cancer.
After the researchers accounted for the amount of alcohol consumed,they found that individuals who downed a significant share of their alcohol outside of meals faced at least a 50 to 80 percent risk of cancer in the oral cavity（腔）,pharynx（咽）,and esophagus（食管）,when compared with people who drank only at meals.Consuming alcohol without food also increased by at least 20 percent the likelihood of laryngeal（喉）cancer."Roughly 95 percent of cancers at these four sites traced to smoking or drinking by the study volunteers,"Dal Maso says.The discouraging news,his team reports, is that drinking with meals didn't eliminate cancer risk at any of the sites.
For their new analysis,the European scientists divided people in the study into four groups, based on how many drinks they reported having in an average week.The lowest-intake group includ-ed people who averaged up to 20 drinks a week.The highest group reported downing at least 56 servings of alcohol weekly for an average of eight or more per day.Cancer risks for the mouth and neck sites rose steadily with consumption even for people who reported drinking only with meals.For instance,compared with people in the lowest-consumption group,participants who drank 21 to 34 alcohol servings a week at least doubled their cancer risk for all sites other than the laryngeal cancer. If people in these consumption groups took some of those drinks outside meals,those in the higher consumption group at least quadrupled their risk for oral cavity and esophageal cancers.
People in the highest-consumption group who drank only with meals had 10 times the risk of oral cancer,7 times the risk of pharyngeal cancer,and 16 times the risk of esophageal cancer compared with those who averaged 20 or fewer drinks a week with meals.In contrast,laryngeal cancer risk in the high-intake,with-meals-only group was only triple that in the low-intake consumers who drank with meals.
"Alcohol can inflame tissues.Over time,that inflammation can trigger cancer."Dal Maso says.He suspects that food reduced cancer risk either by partially coating digestive-tract tissues or by scrubbing alcohol off those tissues.He speculates that the reason laryngeal risks were dramatically lower for all study participants traces to the tissue's lower exposure to alcohol.

Researchers have found that the risk of cancer in the mouth and neck is higher with people_________.
A:who drink alcohol outside of meals
B:who drink alcohol at meals
C:who never drink alcohol
D:who drink alcohol at bars and pubs

The Culture of Campus Drinking

Drinking on college campuses in the United States is more pervasive and destructive than many people realize.Studies show that alcohol consumption is linked to at least 1,400 student deaths and 500,000 unintentional injuries annually.Alcohol consumption by college students is associated with drinking and driving,diminished academic performance,and medical and legal problems.Nondrinking students also may experience alcohol-related consequences,such as increased rates of crime,traffic crashes,rapes and assaults,and property damage.
Traditions and beliefs handed down through generations of college drinkers serve to reinforce students' expectations that alcohol is a necessary component of social success.The role of alcohol in college life is evident in the advertising and sale of alcoholic beverages on or near campuses.This combination of social and environmental influences creates a culture of drinking that passively or actively promotes the use of alcohol.
Yet efforts to reduce student drinking have largely been unsuccessful,in part because proven, research-based prevention strategies have not been consistently applied.It is first necessary to change the culture of college drinking if prevention strategies are to be effective.The analysis strongly supports the use of a"3-in-1 Framework"to target three primary audiences simultaneously:individual students,including high-risk drinkers;the student body as a whole;and the surrounding community.
The leadership of college presidents and school administrators is crucial to develop appropriate plans,supervise the integration of policies pertaining to different aspects of student life,and ensure consistent enforcement of drinking-related policies.

The"3-in-1 Framework"means to__________.
A:apply prevention strategies
B:help individual students
C:help the student body as a whole
D:target three major audiences at the same time

“Don' t Drink Alone" Gets New Meaning

In what may be bad news for bars and pubs,a European research group has found that people drinking
alcohol outside of meals have a significantly higher risk of cancer in the mouth and neck than do those who
drink with food.Luigino Dal Maso and his colleagues studied the drinking patterns of 1,500 patients from
four cancer studies and another 3,500 adults who had never had cancer.
After the researchers accounted for the amount of alcohol consumed,they found that individuals who
downed a significant share of their alcohol outside of meals faced at least a 50 to 80 percent risk of cancer in
the oral cavity（口腔）,pharynx（咽）,and esophagus（食管）,when compared with people who drank only
at meals.Consuming alcohol without food also increased by at least 20 percent the likelihood of laryngeal
cancer（喉癌）."Roughly 95 percent of cancers at these four sites traced to smoking or drinking by the study
volunteers,"Dal Maso says.The discouraging news,his team reports,is that drinking with meals didn't
eliminate cancer risk at any of the sites.
For their new analysis,the European scientists divided people in the study into four groups,based on
how many drinks they reported having in an average week.The lowest-intake group included people who
averaged up to 20 drinks a week.The highest group reported downing at least 56 cups of alcohol weekly for
an average of eight or more per day.Cancer risks for the mouth and neck sites rose steadily with consumption
even for people who reported drinking only with meals.For instance,compared with people in the lowest
group,participants who drank 21 to 34 alcohol cups a week at least doubled their cancer risk for all sites
other than the larynx.If people in these consumption groups took some of those drinks outside meals,those
in the higher consumption group at least quadrupled（四倍）their risk for oral cavity and esophageal cancers.
People in the highest-consumption group who drank only with meals had 10 times the risk of oral
cancer,7 times the risk of pharyngeal cancer,and 16 times the risk of esophageal cancer compared with
those who averaged 20 or fewer drinks a week with meals.In contrast,laryngeal cancer risk in the high-in-
take,with-meals-only group was only triple that in the low-intake consumers who drank with meals.
"Alcohol can inflame（使发炎）tissues. Over time,that inflammation can trigger cancer."Dal Maso
says. He suspects that food reduced cancer risk either by partially covering digestive-tract（消化道）tissues
or by taking alcohol off those tissues.He speculates that the reason laryngeal risks were dramatically lower
for all study participants traces to the tissue's lower exposure to alcohol.

According to the last paragraph,tissues'lower exposure to alcohol_________.
A:reduces the risk of laryngeal cancer
B:explains why inflammation triggers cancer
C:accounts for why food can cover digestive-tract tissues
D:is the reason why food can take alcohol off them
