Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Alcohol affects the brain；and its immediate effects are more marked on those who are not used to the drug than on regular drinkers. It is not a stimulant but a depressant， which adversely affects concentration，removes inhabitations， and increases the risk of accidents. Under the influence of alcohol people are less able to exercise self-control and may say and do things that they afterwards regret——perhaps for the rest of their lives. For example， a girl who does not wish to have a baby may be made pregnant by a man whom she would not have chosen as the farther of her child；and a man may make pregnant a woman whom he would not havechosen as the mother of his child. Some other forms of drug taking， like drinking alcohol and smoking tobacco， are part of group behavior. Such drug taking is encouraged by those who are already addicted to the drug，and by those who profit by making and selling the drug.I mean one who starts taking a drug may soon become addicted to it. As with all bad habits， it is better not to start drug taking than to suffer the physical and emotional harm caused by the drug and to have the problem of trying to break the addiction. It is best， therefore， to refuse the drugs that is offered. Apart from other considerations， drugs that come from unreliable sources （because their manufacturer and distribution is against the law.） and not available in carefully measured and doses and their purity are not guaranteed. Their effects are unpredictable and they may well be dangerous. If such drugs are offered by so-called friends you wouldn't be well advised to find new friends，who share your values， and to continue being yourself.21. Regular drinkers of alcohol are those who_______A. are not used to the drugB. many get immediate effects from the drinkC. sufferer a lot from the drinkD. drink the drug very often22. Under the influence of alcohol， people____________.A. are able to concentrate themselvesB. are able to exercise self controlC. are afraid of taking the risk of accidentsD. may see and do things that they afterwards regret23. The girl in the passage_________A. is made pregnant by a man she doesn't likeB. wishes to marry the man who is her baby's fartherC. does not really like the man to marry herD. does not have a baby24. According to the author， we you are offered a drug， you'd better____A. refuse itB. take it from reliable sourcesC. accept it and soon become addicted to itD. start drug taking25. Drugs that come from unreliable sources__________A. are illegalB. are not available in measured dosesC. are encouraged to takeD. are manufactured abroadPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Everybody gets sick. Disease and injury make us suffer throughout our lives until， finally， some attack on the body brings our existence to an end. Fortunately， most of us in modern industrialized societies can take relatively good health for granted most of the time. In fact， we tend to fully realize the importance of good health only when we or those close to us become seriously ill. At such times we keenly appreciate the ancient truth that health is our most precious asset， one for which we might readily give up such rewards as power， wealth， or fame（荣誉）.Because ill health is a universal problem，affecting both the individual and society， the human response to sickness in always socially organized. No society leaves the responsibility for maintaining health and treating ill health entirely to the individual. Each society develops its own concepts of health and sickness and authorizes certain people to decide who is sick and how the sick should be treated. Around this focusthere arises， over time， a number of standard， values， groups，statuses， and roles： in other words， an institution（体系，机构）。
