If you feel like you had one too many drinks over the winter holiday season—you probably did. At least, if tough new guidelines on drinking just announced by the UK’s chief medical officers are anything to go by.
    The new guidelines suggest that both men and women should regularly drink no more than 14 units of alcohol per week. That’s the equivalent of six small glasses of wine. Pregnant women should not drink at all.
    Guidelines in the U.S. recommend that women should not exceed one standard drink per day and men should no more than two. That equates to 12 units a week for women and just over 24 for men.
    Most worryingly, perhaps, the new UK advice suggests that there is no safe level of drinking—and any amount of alcohol can increase the risk of cancer, according to new research.
1. What is the amount of alcohol suggested in the new guideline?
2. What worries people most according to the news report?

选项 A、Men should drink less than 14 units per week.
B、Women should not drink at all.
C、Women can drink 24 units per week.
D、Men can drink 6 glasses of wine per day.

答案 A

解析 新闻中提到,新的英国健康指南里建议,不论是男性还是女性,每周喝酒不超过14单位(no more than 14 units of alcohol per week),故A正确。B“女士不应该饮酒”错误,新闻中提到的是“怀孕的女士”不应该饮酒。C“女士可以每周喝24单位的酒”远超过指南建议的14个单位。D“男士每天喝六杯酒”,新闻中提到的是“每周不超过六杯”。
