C、merged
D、incorporated

答案B

解析 本题考查动词辨析。空格所在部分是as long as引导的条件状语从句.插入在主句的主语和谓语之间。整个句子的含义是:只要不和驾驶行为______,有节制的酒类消费是无害的并可能是有益的。由于空格部分的动词要和介词with搭配,首先可排除A项和D项,它们的搭配分别是bond sth.to sth.(使牢固结合)和incorporate sth.in/into/within(将包括在内,包含,吸收.使并入)。combine sth.with sth.可表示“同时做(两件事),兼做”。merge sth.with sth.表示“合并,结合,并入(为一个事物)”。由于文中表达的是“喝酒和驾驶两件事的结合”,因此应选择B项。
