Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
In general, alcohol use has gained more social acceptance than other drug use. Due to the known harmful effects of tobacco, it is not acceptable to use tobacco products, which contain nicotine. The use of amphetamines and barbiturates are not acceptable in Western society.
