选项 A、expense
B、restriction
C、allocation
D、availability
答案 D
解析 语义衔接题。本题线索有两条：其一是本句阐述青少年犯罪的三个其他原因；其二是句中连词“and”所构成的名词平行结构，这一结构要求处于此下行结构中的名词应该在所表达的语义上属于同类，由于本句皆在阐述青少年犯罪的三个其他原因，所以这个名词平行结构中的三个名词都应该是不良社会现象或行为。本题具体涉及“毒品和酒精”，众所周知，“毒品和酒精”的泛滥与青少年犯罪的增加直接有关，故选项D availability(可得到性)是正确选项。A、B 、C选项的含义分别是“费用”、“限制”、“分配’。
