Someone who is "tipsy" has been drinking alcohol to the point of becoming mildly or lightly drunk. They could also be described as being "merry" or "jolly", because they are not seriously drunk.
If a person is doing something "under the influence", it means they are doing it "under the influence of alcohol". Being "intoxicated" and "under the influence" are synonymous.
This is incorrect. When someone is "ostracized", they have been rejected, banished or driven away from a group. For example: "I couldn't understand why I had been ostracized from the "knitting club" at church. Just because my dog bit the vicar's wife".
When someone is "flabbergasted", they are astonished or greatly surprised at something. For example: "I was flabbergasted when I opened the front door. An alien was standing there holding a bunch of flowers from my garden".

1 drunk driving: "Drunk driving" (or "drink driving" in UK English) is the act of operating a motor vehicle (driving) while in a state of intoxication, or after having consumed alcohol. "To drink and drive" is an associated expression. Example: Don't drink and drive at Christmas, in fact don't ever drink and drive.
2 binge drinking: "Binge drinking" describes the act of consuming excessive amounts of alcohol regularly or in a short time (such as an evening). It is common to describe youths who drink, cause disturbances and vomit in the street as "binge drinkers".
3 drunk: To be "drunk" is to be in a state of intoxication, having drank an excess amount of alcohol. Example: When I was a student, I was drunk almost every night. Note that to "get drunk" is to reach a state of intoxication by drinking alcohol.
4 tipsy: Someone who is "tipsy" has been drinking alcohol to the point of becoming mildly or lightly drunk. They could also be described as being "merry" or "jolly", because they are not seriously drunk. Hannah uses the term "merry" in her email.
5 hangover: Nobody likes a "hangover", but that's what happens when you drink a lot of alcohol - your head hurts and you may feel nauseous or sick. Hannah writes that she has the "mother of all hangovers", meaning that the effects of drinking alcohol are particularly strong the following day.
6 hungover: To be "hungover" is to suffer the effects of an excessive consumption of alcohol: headaches, nausea and sickness. Note that "hungover" is an adjective, and "hangover" is a noun. "We have a hangover" or "we are hungover" after drinking excessive amounts of alcohol.

2 drunk: This is incorrect. "To be drunk" is to be under the influence of alcohol. It is impossible to be drunk after consuming zero alcohol!

3 tipsy: This is correct. "To be tipsy" is to be a little bit drunk or slightly intoxicated; you start to feel the effects of the alcohol, but are not yet drunk. Most people would be "tipsy" after one or two pints of beer. Example: I've only had a glass of wine, but I'm already feeling a bit TIPSY. "To be tipsy" is the stage between being sober and drunk.
3 sober: This is correct. "To be sober" is not to be drunk or intoxicated. Even after one pint, you are not 100% sober.
3 drunk: "To be drunk" is to be fully under the influence of alcohol, walking becomes difficult but talking becomes easier!. Most people would not be drunk after just one pint.
3 hungover: This is incorrect. "To be hungover" refers to the sickness and headache experienced the day after heavy alcohol consumption. It is unusual to have a hangover BEFORE drinking!

4 tipsy: This is incorrect. "Tipsy" refers to being slightly drunk after consuming a small amount of alcohol. Most people would be more than tipsy after consuming eight pints of beer!
4 sober: This is correct. "To be sober" is not to be drunk or intoxicated. After consuming eight pints of beer, you are certainly not sober!
4 hungover: This is incorrect. "To be hungover" refers to the sickness and headache experienced the day after heavy alcohol consumption. It is unusual to have a hangover while you are drinking! The pain comes the next day...
5 hungover: This is correct. A "hangover" is a feeling of sickness, typically accompanied with a headache, after being drunk or having drunk lots of alcohol. Therefore, "to be hungover" is to be experiencing a hangover. Example: I've had a headache all day - I think I'm still HUNGOVER after last night's party.
5 tipsy: This is incorrect. "Tipsy" refers to being slightly drunk after consuming a small amount of alcohol. It is not a state experienced the day after drinking alcohol.
5 drunk: This is incorrect. "To be drunk" is to be under the influence of alcohol. Even though it is technically possible to still be a bit drunk the day after a big night out, it is more common to have a hangover!
5 sober: After eight pints, you are unlikely to be completely sober the next day! "Hungover" is a better choice here.
