[A] The research was based on responses to the English Longitudinal Study of Aging (Elsa)—which gathers data from a representative sample of men and women aged 50 and over—in 2008/9 and 2010/11.
[B] The report says that alcohol consumption is growing among older people in England. By contrast, the proportion of British adults saying they do not drink and the proportion who say they binge-drank have both fallen.
[C] Alcohol Concern’s chief executive Jackie Ballard said: "Harmful drinking is a real issue for middle-aged and older people, many of whom are regularly drinking above recommended limits, often in their own homes. These are the people who, if they develop alcohol related illnesses, tend to require the most complex and expensive health care due to the mental and physical problems caused by drinking too much. Unless society starts to take this seriously and acknowledges the health problems and the cost to society which too much alcohol can cause, the situation will only get worse."
[D] Age UK’s chief economist, Professor Jose Iparraguirre, author of the research, published in online journal BMJ Open, writes: "Our findings suggest that harmful drinking in later life is more prevalent among people who exhibit a lifestyle associated with affluence and with a ’successful’ ageing process. Harmful drinking may then be a hidden health and social problem in otherwise successful older people. Consequently, and based on our results, we recommend the explicit incorporation of alcohol drinking levels and patterns into the successful ageing paradigm."
[E] Income was also associated with higher risk, but only for women. Neither being depressed or lonely were linked to increased risk of harmful drinking, although being single, separated or divorced was, although only for men. Analysis of the responses showed that the risk of harmful drinking peaked for men in their early 60s and then gradually tailed off, whereas for women risky drinking fell as they aged. Iparraguirre suggested that the current group of over 50s may be carrying on levels of higher consumption, developed in their younger years, into later life.
[F] People over 50 who are healthy, active, sociable and highly educated are at more risk of harmful drinking than their less well-off peers, according to research. A study of more than 9,000 people has concluded that drinking among the over-50s is a hidden "middle class" phenomenon, which should be targeted with explicit age-specific guidelines on consumption.
[G] Iparraguirre found that reporting better health and higher educational attainment were positively associated with an increased risk of harmful drinking. "Because this group is typically healthier than other parts of the older population, they might not realise that what they are doing is putting their health in danger," he said.
[H] The study used national guidance on drinking, which says that consumption of 22 units or over for men, or 15 units or over for women, carries "increasing risk" or, if over 50 or 35 units respectively, "higher risk". The Royal College of Psychiatrists has previously said that there should be a separate recommended safe drinking limit for over-65s of 1.5 units of alcohol a day.
F→【D6】→A→【D7】→【D8】→B→【D9】→【D10】
【D9】
选项
答案
H
解析
本题在B之后。B谈到的是英国老年人饮酒量(alcohol consumption)的问题,同样提到consumption这个话题的是H,该段介绍了关于饮酒量的国家指标,并对老年人提出建议:针对65岁以上的老年人群,应该设置单独的安全饮酒量,建议限量一天1.6个单位。这正好是针对B说的老年人群饮酒量越来越大的问题(alcohol consumption is growing among older people)提出的解决措施。B、H两段联系紧密.语义衔接,因此H为本题答案。
