　　Facebook and Twitter have become a significant threat to marriage –with social media now a factor in an increasing number of divorce cases, say lawyers.
　　One in seven married individuals have considered divorce because of their spouse’s（配偶）postings of Facebook or other online sites, according to research. A similar percentage admit that they search online for evidence of their spouse’s disloyalty, while nearly one in five say they have daily quarrels because of the way their husband or wife uses social media. The research was assigned by law firm Gordon in response to an increase in the number of its clients who said that Facebook, Skype, Snapchat, Twitter or other social media sites had played a part in their divorce.
　　Andrew Newbury, of law firm Gordon, said: ‘Social media is the new marriage. Five years ago Facebook was rarely mentioned in the context of a marriage ending, but now it has become common.”Social media, specific pictures and posts on Facebook, are now being routinely raised in divorces.’The survey by Censuswide among 2011 husbands and wives, found the most common reasons for checking their spouse’s social media accounts were to discover who they were talking to, who they were meeting and where they were going. A quarter of the married people said the resulting suspicions led to quarrels at least once a week, and 17 percent said such quarrels were daily events.
　　Arguments were caused by contact with former partners, by the sending of secret messages, and by the posting of ‘inappropriate’pictures. Some 14 percent said they looked at their spouse’s social media with the specific intention of detecting evidence of adultery（出轨）.

　　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, judgment and co-ordination(协调), slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even below the drink driving link, 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 100ml of blood; or
　　●22 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath; or
