Writer X argues that "The U.S. drinking age should be lowered to 18 because that is the legal age for adulthood and for receiving the right to vote." Match the responses. Read SLOWLY and carefully. Do not rely on how things are phrased, but on DEEP UNDERTSANDING.

Not only do we become citizens and voters at 18, but we are also sent to war, so with risk and responsibility should come trust and reward.

Although lowering the drinking age is the fair thing to do, it should only be done if supportive services are first put in place to deter binge drinking, and to better monitor drunk driving.

Of course lowering the drinking age makes sense from a perspective of what is "fair," but life is not like five-year-olds sharing cake; lowering the drinking age would put the public at too much risk, so the drinking law should remain as it is.
