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 hydrunken 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.The rule that only people above 21 years of age can drink__________.A.is a new law promoted by the twenty statesB.had been once adopted before the 1960sC.has been enforced since the prohibition of alcoholD.will be carried out all over the country

Text 3 West London,Friday night,9 pm.In the Redemption bar,music hums and candles flicker.A barman shakes cocktails under a neon sign.But the noisy drinking often associated with British pubs at the weekend is absent.Although the cocorita is served,it contains no alcohol.Redemption is one of a small but growing number of drinkeries that serve no liquor.Worries about drinking are on the rise.Hospitals complain that alcohol-related admissions are soaring;some police chiefs have called for new powers to tackle disorderly drunks.On February 4th the Home Office announced a new plan that ought to stop retailers from selling alcoholic drinks below cost-something they occasionally do to attract shoppers.This,said Norman Baker,the Liberal Democrat,would"stop the worst examples of very cheap and harmful drink".Yet Britain is in many ways becoming more absterruous.In 2001 the average household consumed 1.5 litres of alcoholic drinks a week;by 2011,the figure had fallen t0 1.I litres.The young in particular seem to be giving up boozing:over the same period,the number of young men drinking heavily at least once a week feU from 37%t0 22%;women became less sozzled,too.Dry bars benefit from this fad:Redemption's customers doubled between December and January.Abstemious bars have also opened in Liverpool and Nottingham.Unlike many caf6s,they stay open late.They simulate hars in other ways,with live music,comedy acts and films to pull in customers.When the lights go down and the DJ plays at Sobar,which opened in Nottingham in January,it looks like any city bar,hopes Alex Gillmore,the manager.Redemption misses the huge profits made on alcohol,but temperance brings its own benefits.Business remains sleady throughout the week rather than spiking at the weekend,says Catherine Salway,its founder.Sobar is linked to a do-gooding drug and alcohol charity.But ordinary bars are becoming a little drier,too,out of business sense rather than temperance principle.Pubs can make almost as much selling food as drink-and more are serving it.Both in pubs and at home,less boozy drinks are beconung popular.Total sales of beer by volume dropped slightly in the year to January,but those of the weaker kinds jumped 32%,according to a market-research firm.Sales of"adult"sparkling soft drinks are grwing too.Perhaps the caf6-culture British politicians have so long yearned for is at last emerging.Norman Baker believed that the new plan would_____A.have some positive effectsB.set a bad example for drinkersC.totally eliminate heavy drinkersD.slop retailers from seUing liquor
