高考阅读双语(2011-2014) 总词数：64548 词汇量：5817 Driving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant(抑制药),damaging eyesight, judgement and co-ordination(协调),slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving limit, driving will be affected. Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the body is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee. The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is: 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100 ml of blood; or 22 micrograms of alcohol per 100 ml of breath; or 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100 ml of urine(尿液). Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested. Any driver found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be fined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving. The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens(样本)for breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse. Drink driving is a criminal offence. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol. 驾车不仅要控制档位还要判断车速和距离。这就要求你要能够预测到其他道路使用者将会做什么并对突发事件做好准备。当你饮酒后，酒精会进入你的血液，起到类似抑制药的作用，影响视力、判断力及协调性，延缓反应时间，增加事故风险。甚至有酒驾的那一条交通线都会受到影响。 酒精只需几分钟就可以进入血液，并开始对大脑起作用。空腹饮酒或参杂果汁一起饮用，酒精的吸收率会上升。从体内解除酒精是一个缓慢的过程，如果不采取诸如淋浴或喝咖啡或茶等方法是不可能加速醒酒的。
