四、閱讀測驗【請依照段落上下文意,選出最適當的答案】 
Alcoholism is a disease that requires medical treatment, and it is increasingly common. It cuts across all 
age,  class,  and  social  strata. Contrary  to  stereotype,  few  alcoholics  are  skid  row  bums.  Most  are  employed, 
married, respectable people; women are as vulnerable as men. Approximately seven percent of the population, or 
ten percent of all drinkers, are alcoholics. 
Dr. E. M. Jellinek, a leading researcher into alcoholism, divides the development of alcoholism into four 
stages: (1) the pre-alcoholic phase, (2) the prodromal phase, (3) the crucial phase, and (4) the  chronic phase. 
Perhaps most  important for  our purposes  here  is  the pre-alcoholic  phase, for  it is  hoped that  some  potential 
alcoholics, recognizing the early warning signals of alcoholism, will seek counseling or other help in time to 
prevent serious onset of the illness.   
Some symptoms of the pre-alcoholic phase are (a) drinking used as a mechanism to escape from problems;(b) 
drinking used to bolster courage, as before a test or job interview; (c) development of an increased tolerance for 
alcohol. There may also be (d) feelings of guilt associated with drinking or feelings of urgency connected with 
downing the first few drinks. These last two symptoms, however, may not appear until the prodromal phase.     
【4】46.According to the article, which of the following is true? 
 Alcoholism can be found only in poor people.   Alcoholics are usually unemployed. 
 Women are usually free from alcoholism.   Alcoholism is found almost in all social levels. 
【3】47. What is the main purpose of this article? 
 To encourage alcoholics to quit immediately. 
 To offer some advice to the alcoholics to be respectable people. 
 To remind some potential alcoholics to seek help to avoid possible severe disease 
 To point out the stages of the development of alcoholism. 
【2】48. The word “ bolster ” in the third paragraph means most nearly the same as which of the following? 
 weaken   strengthen     betray   strike 
【3】49. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the symptoms of the pre-alcoholic phase? 
 drinking to escape from problems     drinking to be brave 
 feeling satisfied after drinking   developing an increased tolerance for alcohol 
【1】50. Which of the following may probably appear until the prodromal phase? 
 feeling guilty associated with drinking     drinking to escape from problems
