9. READING: Based on the ideas from the text, answer the following questions.
The legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood. But there is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on your weight, your sex, if youve just eaten and what sort of drinks youve had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks. In fact, your driving abilities can be affected by just one or two drinks. Even if you are 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 yourre still over the legal limit. In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had the more certain they were 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 youre safe is not to drink at all. Alcohol is a major source of traffic accidents. One in 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. It is important to remember that driving after youve been drinking doesnt just affect you. If you are involved in an accident, it affects a lot of other people as well, not least the person you might kill or injure.
A. Say if these statements are true (T) or false (F). Find evidence in the text to support your answers.
a. ______The amount of alcohol a person can drink before reaching the legal limit is exactly proportional to body weight.
b. ______When you have been drinking heavily in the evening, the next day you might be still drunk until lunchtime.
c. ______Alcohol is a major cause of road accidents in that one in three drivers drink heavily.
