Drunken driving, sometimes called America's socially accepted form. of murder, has become a national epidemic (流行病). Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to 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 (宽容的) 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 1960's 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 tests 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 best concludes the main idea of this passage?A.Drunken driving has caused numerous fatalities in the United States.B.It's recommendable to prohibit alcohol drinking around the United States.C.The American society is trying hard to prevent drunken driving.D.Drunken driving has become a national epidemic in the United States.

Read the article below about job interviews and the questions.For each question (13-18), mark one letter (A, B, C or D) on your Answer Sheet.MAKING THE RIGHT IMPRESSIONThe first thing to remember when you go for a job interview is that this is not a one- sided affair. Treat it as you would do in a negotiation. After all, both you and the prospective employer are selling something. If you approach an interview with the attitude of 'any job will do', the interviewer will realize that immediately. If the job is worth anything, you won't get it.You should prepare yourself for an interview just as you would do for a negotiation. Find out as much as you can about the company and the person who is to interview you. Don't be caught unawares. Go to the Internet and look at the company's websitE.Compare it with that of its competitors. Alternatively, look at the Yellow Pages or trade magazines to see how they advertise themselves. Make enquiries at the Chamber of Commerce and other relevant organizations. Find out at least a little about the sector so that you can ask interesting questions.Think of and note down your strengths and the opportunities that lie aheaD.No matter how high the rate of unemployment is, regardless of how miserable you are in your current job, it's always an advantage to see things in a positive way. If you have little or no experience in a particular area, consider your capabilities in a similar areA.Spend some time trying to imagine what type of employee the company is looking for and what makes you suitable for the job being advertiseD.First impressions count, so look good and feel good before you go. Choose clothes that make you feel confident. Find out what clothes may put the interviewer ofF.Ensure you arrive at the interview with time to sparE.According to one recruitment agency we have spoken to, interviewees must understand the importance not only of their personal appearance but also of their body languagE.During the interview, breathe calmly and try not to appear too nervous. Look the interviewer in the eye and adopt similar body language to theirs. Smile and feel relaxed, enthusiastic and assertivE.Remember one thing, though: assertive does not mean aggressivE.Don't just answer 'yes' or 'no' to questions. Treat every question as an opportunity to demonstrate that you are suitable for the job, but remember to stick to the point. When asked about your interests, include group as well as individual activities and hobbies. Be on the lookout for tricky questions about your personal lifE.You don't need to lie and just tell yourself in the best light. This is something the interviewee needs to be able to do as well. You have the right to find out whether or not you want to work for the company. Furthermore, your interest in the nature of the company and how it is run may well end up being your big selling point.In job interviews, candidates tend to ignore the fact thatA.they are at a disadvantagE.B.they are buying and selling at the same timE.C.an interview is like a presentation.D.the interviewer will be realistiC.
