1、题型综合练(七)(限时65分钟). 阅读理解AThere have been some claims made by scientists that whether a child might commit the crime in the future or not can be predicted through analyzing his behavior. I totally disagree with this idea and I believe that measures can be taken to avoid children growing to be offenders
2、. On the one hand, since human nature changes through the time along with the development of people awareness, wrong doings are not caused by ones personality. For example, a naughty child could show unacceptable behavior in his childhood but with guidance and education from family and school, he ca
3、n become a paragon of virtue and a law-obeying citizen. Consequently, it is impossible for scientists to make accurate assumption. What is more, living conditions and environmental factors play a major role in deciding ones characters and how children may grow up. There is a correlation between crim
4、e and poverty. A child from poor family with constant exposure to violence is likely to conduct illegal acts. On the other hand, it is possible to stop this problem. This can firstly be done by encouraging parents to spend more time with their children, and pay more attention to take care of their c
5、hildren properly. For example, parents can teach their children to distinguish between good and evil. Secondly, schools should make crime education compulsive. Crime prevention should be added to regular lessons. Therefore, children will be aware of the bad consequences of misdoings and avoid them a
6、t all cost. Another solution is posing stricter punishments. As a result, children would give up any intention of illegal acts when being conscious of severe punishments. To conclude, I believe that crime is not by nature so scientists cannot jump to any conclusion when studying childrens behavior a
7、nd action can be taken to prevent children from growing into a criminal. 【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文, 有科学家说通过观察儿童的行为就可以预测将来他会不会犯罪, 作者不同意这种说法, 并列举了自己的观点。1.
