摘要： One of the writer’s purposes in writing the passage is to tell you that . A. safe drinking is impossible B. young men should never drive quickly C. the manner of drinking is meaningless D. driving after drinking may put many lives at risk C Although women lead healthier, longer lives, the cruel perceptionthat they reach their sell-by date and become “old sooner than men is widespread in the workplace, research shows. A survey of more than 2,600 managers and personnel professionals showed that age discrimination is not only common in the workplace, but is full of inconsistencies. Six in ten managers thought that they had suffered from age discrimination-usually because they were turned down for a job for being too old or too young. Yet more than a fifth admitted that they used age as a condition when they employ new workers. Although the survey found widespread agreement that older workers were better than younger colleagues when it came to reliability, commitment, loyalty and customer service, these qualities were not necessarily considered to be worthy of advancement. More than half of respondents believed that workers between 30 and 39 were the most likely to be advanced in their company, with only 2 per cent citing50-year-olds or above. Dianah Worman of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development said that there was anecdotalevidence that people were considered old at different ages in different sectors. “We heard of one man working in IT who said he was considered too old by the age of 28, she said. “There was no evidence to suggest that older workers were less valuable to companies than younger workers, in fact the opposite was often true because older workers often brought experience. she added. The findings also suggested that the Government’s ideas on age in the workforce may also be out of step with reality.

The legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood, when tested. But there is not sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on our weight, your sex, if you’ve just eaten and what sort of drinks you’ve had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks.

　 In fact, your drinking ability can be affected by just one or tow drinks. Even if you’re below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol.

　 It takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find that you’re still over the legal limit. In addition, if you’ve had a few drinks at lunchtime, another one or tow drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit.

　 In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had the more certain they ere that they could drive a test course through a set of moveable posts and the less able they were to do it!

　 So the only way to be sure you’re safe is not to drink at all.

　 Alcohol is a major cause of road accidents. One is three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men. More than half of people stopped by the police to take a breath analyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit.

　 It is important to remember that driving after you’ve been drinking doesn’t just affect you. If you’re involved in an accident it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the person you might kill or injure.
