culture rather than a drinking culture. That means that while Italians may enjoy a
glass of wine or beer, they don’t usually get very drunk.
That’s not true any more. The new study by the Italian National Health Institute
found that 63 percent of Italians under age 18 get drunk on the weekends. Now, the
city of Milan has created a law that will stop anyone under 16 from buying alcohol.
Anyone who sells or gives alcohol to a person under 16 can be fined up to $700.
Young people who feel that the new law is unfair should go to the US for some perspective (观点). The US has the highest drinking age in the world: It’s illegal for anyone under 21 to buy alcohol, and stores or restaurants that are caught selling alcohol to people under the legal age risk losing their licenses.
Many young Americans complain that the drinking laws are unfair: They are allowed to vote in elections and join the army at age 18, so why wait another three years just to buy a bottle of beer?
These young people have found help in an unusual place. Last year, more than 100 presidents of US universities joined together to ask lawmakers to consider changing the drinking age. They argued that the law doesn’t stop underage college kids from getting drunk – it just makes them want to drink more.
For now, the law seems unlikely to change. But US teenagers who want alcohol can go north to Canada, where the drinking age is 18-19, or south to Mexico where the legal age is 18. Throughout much of Asia, Africa and Europe, the legal drinking age ranges 16-18.
In plenty of places though, the official drinking age is ignored, and even young children can buy alcohol if they have the money to pay for it.
No matter how old you are, you should always be responsible with alcohol. Teenagers in Milan are now learning that their reckless (不顾后果的) drinking behavior may come at a high price.

Bluegills, which are small enough to fit in your hand, are the fish that are protecting our water. They are common freshwater fish native to America and are also known as bream or sunfish. According to the Associated Press, the bluegills were originally used by the Army to make sure water was safe. Now San Francisco, New York City, Washington D.C and several other cities use the bluegill monitoring system.
The bluegill system works by constantly filling the fish tank with city or town water. A small group of bluegills swim in the local water and are closely monitored. Bluegills are very sensitive to their environment. Changes in the environment cause their behavior and breathing patterns to change. They cough if the water is polluted. Fish cough by flexing their gills(鳃)to get rid of unwanted particles, like grain of sand, from their breathing passages. If the bluegills are coughing the computer sends an alarm via email. The bluegills in New York City discovered an diesel spill(柴油外溢)hours before the usual monitors. Adding the bluegill system to regular water protection methods resulted in an early warning and safer water.
People use the bluegill system to monitor water supplies_____.
A. because they have high sensibility to their environment
B. because they are used to swimming in the fresh water
C. because they can cough by means of their gills
D. because they are able to send e-mails by computers
Which of the following statements about Bluegills is NOT true?
A. They are about the size of a human hand.
B. They are freshwater fish easily found in America.
C. They were used to safeguard water in the army.
D. They are smarter than any other living thing on earth.
People decide whether the water is polluted by means of _____.
A. information sent by the Army
B. the warning e-mail the computer sends
C. observing the activities of bluegills
D. constantly filling the fish tank with water
