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.
Reformers fear 【C10】______ the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational 【C11】______ to help young people to resist 【C12】______ pressure to drink.
Tough new laws have led to incredible arrests and tests and, in many areas already, to a marked 【C13】______ in fatalities. Some are also penalizing bars for 【C14】______ customers too many drinks.

【C17】______ the fatalities continue to occur in every state, some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the 13 years of national 【C18】______ of alcohol that began in 1919, what President Hoover called the "noble 【C19】______ ". 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 【C20】______ .
【C5】
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。
