参考解析
解析：观点题。根据Norman B8ker定位到第二段最后一句：This．said Nonnan Baker．the Liberal Democrat,would¨stop the worst examples of very cheap and hamul drink¨．其中，this指上文的new plan．故stop the worst examples of very cheap and harmful drink“消除廉价劣质酒所带来的恶劣影响”一处为答案。选项[A]have some positive effecls“起到一些积极的作用”；该项与原文“消除……恶劣影响”是同义替换表述，故该项正确。[B]set a bad example for drinkers“为酒徒树立不良榜样”；该项与原文表述不符，故排除。[C]totally elimi-nate heavy drinkers“彻底根除大量饮酒者”；totally-词过于绝对，且原文并没有提到“彻底根除”，故该项错误。[D]stop retailers from selling liquor“阻止零售商销售烈酒”；该项与文中“On February 4th the Home Office announced a new plan that ought to stop retailers from selling alcoholic drinks below cost”不符，该句表示禁止零售商低价推销酒类。综上，本题选[A]。
