But alcoholism’s【B2】______remains very high: Some 18 million Americans abuse alcohol, and more than 100,000 die【B3】______each year from alcohol-related 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【B4】______or other critical positions. When their alcoholism goes【B5】______, it costs a bundle. Problem drinkers don’t 【B6】______their weight in the office, are often chronically late or absent, and file $4,600 more in health claims a year than other employees. Their families’ doctor 【B7】______are much higher, too. Meanwhile, the company pays full salary and benefits for an employee who is fully【B8】______only some of the time.
【B9】______. But now the progress against Corporate America’s biggest drug problem is being threatened.【B10】______. In many cases, alcoholics are denied the treatment they need because it’s too expensive.

选项
答案
toll
解析
空前的名词所有格和空后的谓语remains表明,本空应填一单数名词或不可数名词。冒号后的句子(大约有1,800万美国人酗酒,每年有10万人死于与酒有关的疾病)是对冒号前的句子的解释说明,由此可推断出,本空所填词可能有“死亡率”或“死亡人数”的含义。toll意为“死亡人数”。
