Question

“Hey, who wants a drink?”

“OH, come on, just one drink won’t hurt you. It’s fun.”

“It’s cool. Everybody drinks, right?”

Drinking alcohol is dangerous for teens and sometimes for adults. It's easy for kids to get the wrong message about alcohol. They might see their parents drink or watch TV commercials that make drinking look like a lot of fun. But alcohol is actually a depressant(鎮(zhèn)靜劑). 1. Like many drugs, alcohol changes a person’s ability to think, speak and see things as they really are.

2. A person might lose his or her balance and have trouble walking properly. He might hurt himself or other people, especially if he drives a car. Someone who drinks too much also might throw up and could wake up the next day feeling awful.

Drinking too much alcohol can lead to alcohol poisoning, which can kill a person. Over time, people who abuse alcohol can do serious damage to their bodies. 3.

Keeping drinking as a habit can also develop a problem called alcoholism(酗酒). Someone who has a alcoholism is eager for alcohol. 4. A person who starts drinking alcohol at a young age is more likely to develop alcoholism.

Alcoholism can continue over time. It often gets worse, too, because the person may start to experience health problems related to drinking. In addition to liver problems, long-term drinking can damage the pancreas(胰腺), heart and brain.

5. As a teenager, help yourself by not starting in the first place.

A. The liver, which removes poisons from the blood, is especially at risk.

B. But with help, anyone who has a problem with alcohol can be successful at stopping.

C. It's normal to be curious about new things, especially if it seems like everyone is doing it.

D. When people drink too much, they might do or say crazy things.

E. You might see people drinking and watching sports together or having a big party.

F. That means it’s a drug that slows down or depresses the brain.

G. The person has little control over his or her drinking and can’t stop without help.

【解析】

試題分析：本文主要講述的是飲酒的壞處，建議人們不要多喝酒。

1. 根據(jù)前面一句But alcohol is actually a depressant(鎮(zhèn)靜劑).酒精是一種鎮(zhèn)定劑。接下來的這句應(yīng)該是對(duì)鎮(zhèn)定劑這一術(shù)語的解釋。故F項(xiàng)符合復(fù)合上下文。

2. 根據(jù)本段接下來的內(nèi)容A person might lose his or her balance and have trouble walking properly.可知敘述的是人們喝酒了以后會(huì)出現(xiàn)的很多不好的行為等。故D正確。

3. 根據(jù)前面一句Over time, people who abuse alcohol can do serious damage to their bodies可知敘述的是喝酒對(duì)人的身體產(chǎn)生的不好的影響。A項(xiàng)陳述的也是相關(guān)的內(nèi)容。故A正確。

4. 根據(jù)前面兩句Keeping drinking as a habit can also develop a problem called alcoholism(酗酒). Someone who has a alcoholism is eager for alcohol.可知是在敘述酗酒的人的情況，只有D項(xiàng)與之相符。

5. 前面幾段都在敘述飲酒的不好之處，那么最后一段應(yīng)該講述的是在人們的幫助之下，酗酒的人也可以被治好的。后面一句As a teenager, help yourself by not starting in the first place也是在說明不染上這個(gè)習(xí)慣的方法。
