You listen as the prosecutor tells you and your eleven colleagues that similar appeals have been rejected in the past. A boy in Florida named Ronnie Zamora killed an elderly neighbor and said he was just imitating Kojak. Some boys gang raped two little girls after seeing a similar attack on an NBC made-for-television movie, Born Innocent. Both times juries like yours refused to place the blame on the media) Millions of people had seen the same content, those juries reasoned, and they didn't kill anyone, rape anybody, or set fire to anything.
Then you listen to the defense. These are good kids. They've never been in trouble. But they'd seen thieves in the movie squirt a flammable liquid into a token booth and set it afire, causing the clerk to open the door to escape. The defendants did what the movie had taught them to do, only this time the clerk didn't get out in time. She was burned to death. The lawyer asks,
Where would these children have gotten such an idea? Their parents didn't teach them this. Why did they think it was possible? Why did they think no one would get hurt? The attorney then quotes former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole’s comments on the floor of the U.S. Senate after a series of similar attacks occurred when the movie was in the theaters. Those who work in Hollywood’s corporate suites must also be willing to accept their share of the blame, said the Republican who would eventually run for president. Is this how they want to make their livelihoods? Is this their contribution to society?

(4)What’s Bob Dole’s attitude toward Hollywood’s corporate suites?
A、They accepted their share of the blame
B、They contributed a lot to the society.
C、They make their livelihoods in a right way.
D、They should be blamed.

2 Shop-lifters can be divided into three main categories: the professionals, the deliberate amateurs, and the people who just can't help themselves. The professionals do not pose much of a problem for the store detectives, who, assisted by closed circuit television, two way mirrors and various other technological devices, can usually cope with them. The professionals tend to go for high value goods in parts of the shops where security measures are tightest. And, in any case, they account for only a small percentage of the total losses due to shop-lifting.
3 The same applies to the deliberate amateur who is, so to speak, a professional in training. Most of them get caught sooner or later, and they are dealt with severely by the courts.
4 The real problem is the person who gives way to a sudden temptation and is in all other respects an honest and law-abiding citizen. Contrary to what one would expect, this kind of
shop-lifter is rarely poor. He does not steal because he needs the goods and cannot afford to pay for them. He steals because he simply cannot stop himself. And there are countless others who, because of age, sickness or plain absent-mindedness, simply forget to pay for what they take from the shops. When caught, all are liable to prosecution, and the decision whether to send for the police or not is in the hands of the store manager.
5 In order to prevent the quite incredible growth in shop-lifting offences, some stores, in fact, are doing their best to separate the thieves from the confused by prohibiting customers from taking bags into the store. However, what is most worrying about the whole problem is, perhaps, that it is yet another instance of the innocent majority being penalized and inconvenienced because of the actions of a small minority. It is the aircraft hijack situation in another form. Because of the possibility of one passenger in a million boarding an aircraft with a weapon, the other 999,999 passengers must subject themselves to searches and delays. Unless the situation in the shops improves, in ten years' time we may all have to subject ourselves to a body-search every time we go into a store to buy a tin of beans!
Why does the honest public have to pay higher prices when they go to the shops?
A.There is a "shrinkage" in market values.
B.Many goods are not available.
C.Goods in many shops lack variety.
D.There are many cases of shop-lifting.

The most obvious reason for the decline in tagging and train-painting is better policing. Numerous CCTV cameras mean it is harder to get away with painting illegally. And punishments are more severe. A generational shift is apparent, too. Fewer teenagers are getting into painting walls. They prefer to play with iPads and video games. Some have gone to art school and want to make money from their paintings. The Internet means that painters can win far more attention by posting pictures online than they can by breaking into a railway yard.
Taggers and graffiti artists mostly grew up in the 1980s and 1990s. Those men—and almost all are men—are now older and less willing to take risks. Graffiti may eventually disappear. But for now the hobby is almost respectable. The former graffiti artists paint abandoned warehouses at the weekend. It has become something to do on a Sunday afternoon—a slightly healthier alternative to sitting and watching football.
1.Teenagers are not afraid of being caught by security guards when they put their names on trains and buses.{T; F}
2.Less tags can be found in public places nowadays.{T; F}
3.Because of better policing graffiti decreases.{T; F}
4.Some teenagers go to art school in order to learn to paint walls.{T; F}
5.Taggers and graffiti artists are still willing to take risks.{T; F}
