A drunken driver is defined as one with 0. 10 blood alcohol 【C3】______ or through three beers, glasses of wine or 【C4】______ of whisky drunk within two hours. Heavy dinking used to be a (an) 【C5】______ part of the American macho image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken 【C6】______ Zhas recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially involving young children, 【C7】______ public opinion is no longer tolerant.
Twenty states have raised the 【C8】______ drinking age to 21. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-to-20-year-old drivers more than 【C9】______ , so the state recently upped it back to 21.

选项
A、necessary
B、acceptable
C、important
D、vital
答案
B
解析
形容词语义题。句意为:在美国,男子汉酩酊大醉被认为是一种硬汉形象的体现。故只有B acceptable表示“被认为是好的,合乎某种标准的”,合乎题意。选项D vital表示“生命攸关的,至关重要的”,言过其实,不合题意。
