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、shots
B、gulps
C、laps
D、cups
答案
A
解析
短语语义题。 shot在口语化语体中表示“喝一口烈酒”的意思,因此文中的意思是“喝了几口威士忌”。gulp“吞咽”;lap是“舔”的意思;cup是“杯”,但是在这里因为是喝了几口酒的意思,所以cup(杯)显然不合适。
