The American war on drugs has gotten all the types in recent years, but alcoholism is still the nation’s most serious addiction. True,【B1】______drinking is no longer as fashionable as it once was. But alcoholism’s【B2】______remains very high: Some 18 million Americans abuse alcohol, and more than 100,000 die prematurely each year from【B3】______causes. And alcoholism costs the nation $86 billion a year.
Business picks up most of the tab. Virtually every company has workers with a drinking problem, often veteran employees in executive or other【B4】______positions. When their alcoholism goes【B5】______. it costs a bundle. Problem drinkers don’t pull their weight in the office, are often【B6】______late or absent, and file $4,600 more in health claims a year than other employees. Their families’ doctor bills are much higher, too. Meanwhile, the company pays full salary and【B7】______an employee who is fully functional only some of the time.
In the eighties, many corporations developed generous programs to help alcoholic employees recover, often with gratifying results. But now the progress against Corporate America’s biggest drug problem is being threatened. Although few companies are【B8】______alcohol treatment benefits entirely, many are hiring outside vendors to manage care. In many cases, alcoholics are denied the treatment they need because it’s too expensive.
This is bad business. Limiting treatment may seem to save money. But the one-time expense of helping an alcoholic recover is【B9】______the long-term potential cost. Business is right to【B10】______the cost of alcoholism treatment, but the key concern should be effectiveness.
【B3】
选项
答案
alcohol-related
解析
空前的介词from和空后的名词causes表明,本空应填一形容词,修饰causes。此处说的是酗酒的危害,即每年有10万人死于与酒有关的疾病。alcohol-related意为“与酒精有关的”。
