All adults at some time or another commit (犯罪) a crime, sometimes by accident, but why do some people intentionally commit crimes? Here are three theories that try to explain the causes of criminal behaviour.

GENETIC (遗传的) CAUSES

The idea that some people commit crimes because of biological causes has a long tradition. This theory suggests that criminals are born, not made. In the 19th century some people even thought brain sizes and skull shapes could explain criminal behaviour. Although experts today no longer believe this, they do argue that human behaviour can be linked to an individual’s genes. Studies of adopted children who show criminal behaviour suggest that their behaviour is more similar to their biological parents behaviour-than their adoptive parents’, showing a genetic link.

ENVIRONMENT

This theory states that a person’s surroundings influence their behaviour. Just as children learn good behaviour from their parents and brothers or sisters, children can learn bad behaviour from their families and other close relationships. Researchers in this area argue that early anti-social (反社会的) behaviour in childhood often leads to a future of criminal behaviour. It is a dangerous circle, as one expert states: “Problem children are likely to grow up into problem adults, and problem adults are likely to produce more problem children.”

CHOICE

The central idea of this theory is that crime is a career decision, an alternative (可选择的) way of making a living. The theory argues that most criminals are sensible people, who know what they want and the different ways of getting it, i.e. work or crime. They are able to balance the risks of committing a crime, such as going to prison, against its benefits, i.e. what they gain if they aren’t caught. The conclusion is: if there are more benefits than risks, do it, but if there are more risks than benefits, don’t do it.

1.What does the second theory conclude?

A.A family determines a child’s future.

B.Relatives play a key role in a person’s crime.

C.Uneducated children tend to become criminals.

D.The environment greatly influences people’s behaviour.

2.According to the text, criminals ________.

A.consider what they can lose and gain in a crime

B.don’t think before they decide on a life of crime

C.tend to believe they can avoid the risks of a crime

D.often achieve their goals through crime instead of work

3.What can be a suitable title for the text?

A.Types of crimes

B.Crimes and punishments

C.Why do people commit crimes?

D.What influences will crimes have?

We live in a dangerous world. The figures for crime go up year by year. If you were attacked in the street, would you be able to defend yourself? Not very well probably, especially if someone was pointing a gun at you. We all see a lot of violence of films, but recently some programs on television showed how people can defend themselves without guns. For example, in one film a woman was attacked from behind. She threw the man, who was heavier and stronger than she was, over her head. Then she held him tightly on the ground. How? She knew Judo.

Jiu-jitsu, as judo is sometimes called, means "muscle science" in Japanese. The student of judo needs to learn a lot about the body, its bones and muscles. Judo uses a number of "falls", "holds" and "throws". Someone who does not know judo cannot defend himself against them. If you know judo you can defend yourself against a person who is stronger than you. You had better not practice judo on your friends unless they can fall without hurting themselves! Being strong is one thing, but using the body wisely is another. In judo, you use the other person's body to help you. You "throw" him to the ground and "hold" him there, so that he cannot move. Of course, it takes time and practice, but knowing judo is useful. In a violent world you ought to be able to defend yourself.

1.According to passage, in fact "judo" is ______.

A．the same as "Jiu-jitsu"                    B．a kind of fighting

C． a kind of muscle science                 D．is helpful to a strong man

2.Why does the writer say the world is dangerous?

A． The number of violence and crime is increasing every year.

B．Because many people carry guns.

C．Because there too many films.

3.Which of the following statement is true about the woman in the passage?

A．The woman held the man over her head.

B．The woman was heavier than the man.

C．The woman was able to defend herself.

D．The woman attacked the man from behind.

4.If a man knows judo, he ______.

A．will be good at muscle science.

B．will be able to avoid being attacked from his back.

C．may defeat any strong person.

D．can help himself by using the other person's body

5.What's the best title for this short passage?
