阅读理解     Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal
relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from
one another under stressful conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among
people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to
deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better
health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heartdisease, show
that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of
such support makes poor health more likely.
     Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and coworkers may let us
know that they value us. Our selfrespect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our
faults and difficulties. Second, otherpeople often provide us with informational support. They help us to
define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social
companionship supportive. Taking part in freetime activities with others helps us to meet our social
needs while at the same time distracting(转移注意力)us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other
people may give us instrumental support-money aid, material resources, and needed services-that
reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.1. Interpersonal relationships are important because they can________.A. make people live more easily
B. smooth away daily problems
C. deal with life changes
D. cure types of illnesses2. The researches show that people"s physical and mental health________.A. lies in the social medical care systems which support them
B. has much to do with the amount of support they get from others

举一反三
     Driving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict
what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is
consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant(抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgement
and coordination(协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even
below the drink driving limit, driving will be affected.
      Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain.
Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with
fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up
with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.
     The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is:
     ● 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or
     ● 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath; or
     ● 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine(尿液).
     Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of
drink driving will be tested.
     Any driver found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a
maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10
drivingoffence points; or temporarily banned from driving.
     The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens(样本) for breath, blood or urine tests
without good excuse.
      Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of
yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.1. The first paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the introduction of driving skills
B. the damage of drinking to your body
C. the effect of drinking on driving
D. the process of alcohol being absorbed2. The underlined word "it" in the second paragraph refers to "________". A. alcohol   
B. absorption
C. blood  
D. process3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.
B. Alcohol is taken in more quickly when drunk with fruit juice.
C. Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.
D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink driving limit.4. A driver suspected of drink driving________.A. should provide specimens for testing
B. will be forbidden to drive for 3 years
C. will be punished for 10 drivingoffence points
D. should pay a maximum fine of HK$25,000
