虽说“无酒不成席”,同时,酒也是“穿肠毒药”,过量饮酒带来的危害也不少。每年不知有多少人因喝酒造成了意外,多少人把命断送在这酩酊酣热之际,多少健康消失在瓶罐之间。忽略了酒精的危害,我们正一步步远离健康。
36．B．common在这里表示“不稀有，到处可见”。common侧重“普通”，表示“时时发生，人所共有”，其反义词为rare。如：a common saying (俗话)，common knowledge / sense常识。normal指“正常的”、“正规的”、“常态的”, 如: the normal temperature of the human body.；ideal“理想的；完美的；空想的；想象中的 ” This dictionary is ideal — it’s exactly what I needed. 这本词典很理想，正是我所需要的。 ideal plans for making money 赚钱的空想计划；regular 指“有规律的”、“正规的”、“定期的”, 如: He kept regular hours. 他过着有规律的生活。本题易误选A。
