passage.
Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to
finding a partner, though matchmaking is still the most common way
for boys to meet girls.
Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American
dollars by introducing suitable marriage partners to each other,
but parents also play a role in the process during which young
Koreans meet.
In Confucius Korea, where marriage is regarded as more of a
business contract than a scared thing, the scene of the first
meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the
main hotels around Seoul.
The business of
continuing the family lineage (血统) and keeping the bloodlines pure is
often too important to be left to romance and chance
encounters.
Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with
her mother, form which her parents can tell if she is
interested.
For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that
she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk
shows that she wants them to stay.

Passage Four
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following
passage.
Drunken driving—sometimes called
America’s socially accepted form of
murder—has become a national epidemic. Every hour
of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken
drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past
decade.
Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American
macho (男子汉) image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the
drunken slaughter has recently caused so many well-publicized
tragedies, especially involving young children, that public opinion
is no longer so tolerant.
Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21,
reversing a trend in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey
lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old
drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to
21.
Reformers, however,
fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless
accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop
“responsible attitudes” about
drinking and teach then to resist peer pressure to
drink.
Though new laws have led to increased arrests and tests and,
in many areas already, to a marked decline in fatalities. Some
states are also penalizing bars for serving customers too many
drinks. A tavern (酒栈) in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or
more brandies to a customer who was “obviously
intoxicated” and later drove off the road,
killing a nine-year-old boy.
As the fatalities
continue to occur daily in every state, some Americans are even
beginning to speak well of the 13 years of national prohibition of
alcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the
“noble experiment”. They
forget that legal prohibition didn’t stop
drinking, but encouraged political corruption and organized crime.
As with the booming drug trade, there is no easy solution.
16、Drunken driving has become a serious problem in America
because .
A. most drunken drivers drive their cars at top speed
B. most drivers regard heavy drinking as part of the American
macho image
C. fatalities caused by drunken driving have been greatly
increased
D. about 25,000 people on average are killed every year by
drunken drivers
17. Why have the public changed their opinion about drunken
driving?
A. Because detailed statistics on drunken slaughter are now
available.
B. Because they are no longer tolerant of the drunken
slaughter.
C. Because judges usually give more severe sentences to
drunken drivers.
D. Because drunken drivers are more conscious of their
image.
18. The statistics issued in New Jersey suggested that
.
A. many drunken drivers were not of legal age
B. many young people were in no way qualified drivers
C. raising the legal drinking age would have little effect on
the reduction of tragedies
D. raising the legal drinking age would reduce the fatalities
caused by drunken drivers
19. Laws recently introduced in some states have .
A. reduced the number of convictions
B. resulted in fewer fatalities of traffic accidents
C. prevented bars from serving drunken drivers

Ironical.

Casual.
C.
Optimistic.
