                                                How to take care of the needy
     The charm of a city is not the level of its tolerance (宽容), but the humanistic care and warmth it offers
to disadvantaged groups. Last week, Beijing's urban administration and civil administration departments
began an intensive winter relief camp to persuade people forced to sleep on the streets to move to relief
centers, which was met with a cold response. But the government wouldn't abandon their efforts to help
the needy.
     Actually, it is not new for people used to sleeping on the streets to refuse to shift to relief centers.
There are three main reasons why they do so. First, the lack of understanding among the staff at such
centers has produced a sense of fear and strangeness among destitute people. Second, a relief center is
less convenient for such people and many of them, such as professional beggars, could even lose their
"jobs". And third, many of them know that they would finally be sent back home, which they want to
avoid.
     Since the homeless are quite defensive, it would be better if officials take a friendly and patient attitude
to persuade them to move into relief centers. The officials have to explain to people that relief centers are more comfortable and convenient.
     Besides, the government could build open centers, which are less formal than the existing relief centers, to provide temporary (临时的) place to professional beggars and garbage collectors, instead of forcing
them to return to their villages and towns.
     A more flexible institutional arrangement could help clear the streets of extremely poor people.
     Since the existing relief system is "non-professional", experts argue that more legal methods and
management measures are needed to deal with professional beggars, especially because persuasion alone
cannot stop them from begging.
     Also, more measures have to be taken to make the system perfect.
1. Which of the following is NOT the reason why the beggars refused to move to the relief centers?
A. The staff at relief centers makes them feel uncomfortable.
B. The existing relief centers are "non-professional".
C. Many beggars do not want to be sent back to their original villages or towns.
D. Moving to relief centers will probably cause economic losses to the professional beggars.
2. Which of the following words can take the place of "destitute" in the third paragraph?
A. poor          
B. hungry      
C. ordinary        
D. unfriendly
3. What can we conclude from the passage?
A. The charm of a city is decided by the humanistic care offered to disadvantaged groups. 
B. the existing relief centers are not comfortable or convenient.
C. many homeless people welcomed the winter relief program well.
D. the present relief system for beggars is not perfect
4. What is the attitude of the author towards the winter relief camp?
A. positive      
B. negative      
C. neutral        
D. not caring about

     The legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood,
when tested. But there is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It
varies with each person depending on your weight, your sex, and what sort of drinks you've had. Some
people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks.
     In fact, your driving ability can be affected by just one or two drinks. Even if you're below the legal
limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol.
     It takes hours for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy
drinking session in the evening, you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning,
or you could even find that you're still over the legal limit. In addition, if you've had a few drinks at
lunchtime, another one or two drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit till late
in the night.
     In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had, the more certain they
were that they could drive a test course through a set of moveable posts and the less able they were
to do it! So the only way to be sure you're safe is not to drink at all.
     Alcohol is a major cause of road traffic accidents. One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents
have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest
cause of death among young men. More than half of the people stopped by the police to take a breath
analyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit.
     It is important to remember that driving after you've been drinking doesn't just affect you. If you're
involved in an accident, it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the person you might kill or injure.
1. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Three standard drinks may cause some people to reach the legal limit.
B. There is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach the legal limit.
C. The legal limit for driving after drinking is 0.08g of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood.
D. The amount of alcohol a person can drink before reaching legal limit is the same for different people.
2. We may find that the alcohol in our blood is over the legal limit in the evening after we had a few drinks at noon because ________.
A. the drinks are too strong
B. the alcohol in our drink is likely to get out of our body
C. our body needs some time to get the alcohol out of our body
D. our body is sensitive to alcohol
3. We may infer that even a professional driver ________ if he drinks heavily.
A. will probably fail to pass through a set of movable posts
B. will certainly pass through a set of movable posts
C. will hardly be confident of their ability to pass through a set of movable posts
D. will be absolutely capable of passing through a set of movable posts.

A. a driver who does not take any alcohol will not die in road accidents
B. those who drink must be killed
C. more young men die in drink-related accidents than in any other way
D. one in three of the drivers often drinks a lot
5.One of the writer's purposes in writing the passage is to tell you that ________.
A. young men should never drive quickly
B. driving after drinking may put many lives at risk
C. safe drinking is impossible
