(15 points)when television first began to expand, very few of the people who had become

2、 famous as radio commentators were able to be equally effective on television. some of the difficulties they experienced when they were trying to _1_ themselves to the new medium were technical. when working _2_ radio, for example, they had become _3_ to seeing on behalf of the listener. this _4_ of

3、 seeing for others means that the commentator has to be very good at talking. _5_ all, he has to be able to _6_ a continuous sequence of visual images which _7_ meaning to the sounds which the listener hears. in the _8_ of television, however, the commentator sees everything with the viewer. his rol

5、e pictures speak for themselves.1.a turn b adapt c alter d modify解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：動(dòng)詞的搭配本題空格處的動(dòng)詞須能夠搭配成“oneself to + 名詞”的形式，選項(xiàng)中只有b可以。adapt oneself to意為to gradually change ones behavior and attitudes so that one get used to a new situation and can deal with it successfully“(使)適應(yīng)，（使）適合（新情況）”。代入adapt之后，空格所在句大意為

6、：他們（收音機(jī)評(píng)論員）努力去適應(yīng)（電視機(jī)）這種新媒體的時(shí)候，遇到了一些技術(shù)方面的困難。b符合文義。a turn to sb/sth意為ask help from“求助于”，如：i tried to stand on my own rather than turned to my parents.我設(shè)法自立而不求助于我的父母。calter意為cause to change; make different; cause a transformation 改變，如：he altered one of the rooms into a bedroom. 他把一間屋子改建成了臥室。d modify 意為

7、to make small changes to sth in order to improve it and make it more suitable or effective “（略微地）修改，更改，改進(jìn)”，如：furthermore, humans have the ability to modify the environment in which they live, thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies. 而且，人類還有能力改變自己的生存環(huán)境，從而讓所有其它形態(tài)的生

8、命服從于人類自己獨(dú)特的觀念和想象。2. a on b at c with d behind解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：介詞辨析aon可意為by means of sth, using sth通過(guò)，使用，借助于，如：on tv/the internet在電視/互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上。代入文中，on radio指收音機(jī)評(píng)論員通過(guò)收音機(jī)工作，作狀語(yǔ)修飾work., 既符合文義，又能構(gòu)成搭配。bat、c with、 d behind構(gòu)不成搭配。3. a experienced 有經(jīng)驗(yàn)的 b determined 有決心的c established 已經(jīng)確立的，獲確認(rèn)的 d accustomed 習(xí)慣于解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：固

9、定搭配四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，只有accustomed 可以形成 be /become accustomed to doing sth的形式。如, my eyes slowly grew accustomed to the dark.我的眼睛慢慢適應(yīng)了黑暗。而且，空格所在句大意為“在廣播電臺(tái)工作時(shí)，評(píng)論員已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了代表公眾看實(shí)況”，daccustomed 既符合內(nèi)容要求又符合語(yǔ)法結(jié)構(gòu)的要求。experienced 后面介詞一般用in. 如，he is very experienced in looking after animals. 他對(duì)于照看動(dòng)物很有經(jīng)驗(yàn)。determined后面跟動(dòng)詞不定式。如，i

10、am determined to succeed.我決心要獲得成功。established“已確立的，已獲確認(rèn)的”，一般放在名詞前做定語(yǔ)，如they are an established company with good reputation.他們是一家地位穩(wěn)固，信譽(yù)良好的公司。4. a efficiency b technology c art d performance解析 本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：上下文語(yǔ)義+ 名詞意思辨析。本句和下一句共同說(shuō)明，評(píng)論員代替聽(tīng)眾觀看是一門技巧、本事。即，評(píng)論員必須擅長(zhǎng)表達(dá)，同時(shí)還必須能夠通過(guò)語(yǔ)言在觀眾腦海中生成一系列的圖像。art意為“技藝，技巧，本領(lǐng)”，符合文

11、義。所以，d為正確選項(xiàng)。technology多指工業(yè)技術(shù)。 efficiency指“效率”。performance“演出，表現(xiàn)”。這三個(gè)詞都和原文的意思不符。5. a of b for cabove d in解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：固定用法。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，b、c、d都可以和all 搭配，但意義不同。above all意為“above and beyond all other consideration首先，尤其是”，如：what a child should do, above all, is to do well in his studies.小孩子該做的最重要的事是學(xué)好功課。for all意為

12、“盡管，雖然”，如：he never stopped trying for all his failures. 盡管失敗, 但他從沒(méi)放棄努力。in all 意為 “總共，總計(jì)”，如：he visited, in all, ten hospitals in china. 他在中國(guó)共參觀了10家醫(yī)院。空格處填入的短語(yǔ)應(yīng)體現(xiàn)空格所在句子與上文之間的邏輯關(guān)系。由于本句空格較多，可以先做完第6和7題，再回來(lái)做5題。上文提到，代替聽(tīng)眾觀看要求評(píng)論員必須擅長(zhǎng)表達(dá)。本句指出，評(píng)論員必須能夠通過(guò)語(yǔ)言在觀眾腦海中生成一系列的圖像。根據(jù)含義選擇c。從泛泛的“擅長(zhǎng)表達(dá)”到具體的“通過(guò)語(yǔ)言在觀眾腦海里生成一系列圖像”。

13、6. a inspire 激起，鼓舞，激勵(lì) b create 產(chǎn)生，生成c cause 引起，導(dǎo)致 d perceive 注意到，領(lǐng)悟到解析 本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：動(dòng)詞詞義辨析?？崭裉幪钊雱?dòng)詞，其主語(yǔ)是he（the commentator），賓語(yǔ)是visual images，所在句子的大意為：評(píng)論員必須能夠一系列連續(xù)的圖片。ainspire 意為to make sb have a particular feeling or react in a particular way“使（某人）產(chǎn)生（某種感情或反應(yīng)）；激起”，如：gandhis quiet dignity inspired respect e

14、ven among his enemies.甘地沉靜威嚴(yán)的氣質(zhì)使他的敵人都肅然起敬。bcreate意為“bring into existence造成，形成，生成”，如，this decision creates a dangerous precedent. 這個(gè)決定開(kāi)創(chuàng)了一個(gè)危險(xiǎn)的先例。ccause意為 “make sth happen引起，導(dǎo)致”，如：deaths caused by dangerous driving危險(xiǎn)駕駛造成的死亡。dperceive意為“to notice something that is difficult to notice察覺(jué)，注意到，發(fā)覺(jué)”，如：i perc

15、eived a change in his behaviour. 我發(fā)覺(jué)他的行為有些變化?；颉皌o understand or think of something in a particular way（以某種方式）理解，領(lǐng)悟”。如，people now perceive that green issues are important to our future.人們現(xiàn)在認(rèn)識(shí)到環(huán)境問(wèn)題對(duì)我們未來(lái)的重要性。賓語(yǔ)“視覺(jué)圖像”不是“感情或反應(yīng)”，排除inspire；主語(yǔ)和賓語(yǔ)之間不存在因果關(guān)系，排除cause；評(píng)論員通過(guò)語(yǔ)言讓聽(tīng)眾產(chǎn)生圖像，而不是自己發(fā)現(xiàn)，排除perceive；只有bcreate符

16、合文義，表示“評(píng)論員在觀眾腦海中生成一系列的圖像”。7. a add 添加 b apply 應(yīng)用 c affect 影響 dreflect反映解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：動(dòng)詞和介詞的搭配addto“給添加”是固定搭配。如，a new wing was added to the building。這棟大樓新添了一座配樓。而且，空格所在句大意為：（評(píng)論員的描繪所生成的圖像）為聽(tīng)眾聽(tīng)到的聲音增添了意思”。aadd填入空格處既結(jié)構(gòu)合理，又符合文義。其他三項(xiàng)都不能接sth to sth的結(jié)構(gòu)，bapply直接加to，意為“適用于”如，the questions on this part of the form

17、only apply to married men.表格中這部分問(wèn)題只適用于已婚男士。caffect意為“影響”，直接加賓語(yǔ)，如：the climate affected his health氣候影響了他的健康。dreflect 意為“反射，反映”，直接加賓語(yǔ)，如：the low value of the dollar reflects growing concern about the us economy.美元幣值低反映出人們對(duì)美國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)的憂慮日益增加。8. a occasion b event c fact d case解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：固定結(jié)構(gòu)上文是關(guān)于收音機(jī)評(píng)論員的工作，從這句開(kāi)始，

18、話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，提到電視評(píng)論員的工作方式。 in the case of 意為“至于，就來(lái)說(shuō)”，表示由一種情況或話題轉(zhuǎn)入另一種情況或話題。符合文義。所以，d為正確選項(xiàng)。aoccasion 指“（發(fā)生特殊事情）的情況”，與 on 連用。如，on the occasion of her 50th birthday 在她50歲生日之際。bevent 意為“事件”，常用搭配為in the event of ,意為“假如發(fā)生”。如，in the event of rain, the party will be held indoors加入下雨，晚會(huì)就在室內(nèi)舉行。cfact 指“事實(shí)，已經(jīng)發(fā)生的事”，詞組in

19、fact意為“實(shí)際上”，沒(méi)有冠詞，也不與of 連用。 9. a equally 同樣的 b completely 完全的c initially起始地 d hardly幾乎不解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：副詞詞義辨析。本句是對(duì)電視節(jié)評(píng)論員和收音機(jī)評(píng)論員工作性質(zhì)的對(duì)比。從上下文來(lái)看，特別是前句的however表明，這兩種工作是完全不同的，因而completely 為正確選項(xiàng)。equally 意為“同樣的”，equally different 用于說(shuō)明兩個(gè)對(duì)比組之間的差異大小相同，different species of trees thrive in equally different habitats.不

20、同種類的樹(shù)在同樣不同的棲息地很好地生長(zhǎng)。而本文中只存在一組對(duì)比（電視節(jié)評(píng)論員和收音機(jī)評(píng)論員）。initially different意為 “開(kāi)始時(shí)不同”，暗含后來(lái)相同的可能。hardly意為“幾乎不”，同文中意思相反。10. a definite 確定的 b possible可能的 c sure確實(shí)的 d clear 清楚的，明白的解析 本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：形容詞詞義辨析及搭配?？崭袼诰渥犹岬剑娨曉u(píng)論員的作用是：確保觀眾不錯(cuò)過(guò)某些有趣之處，make sure that是習(xí)慣用法，意為“確?！比?，make sure that you put down every word she says. 確

21、保記下她說(shuō)的每一個(gè)字。 所以，c 為正確選項(xiàng)。adefinite不用在make definite that結(jié)構(gòu)中。bpossible，c clear和make只能形成make it possible/clear that 的形式，如，his diligence made it possible that he could win the game.他的勤奮使得他比賽獲勝成為可能。she makes it clear to us that she wants to be master in her own house.她使我們很清楚地了解到，她要自主處理自己的事情。11. a focus 集中，

22、聚集 b attend 參加，注意，照料c follow 跟隨，遵循 d insist 堅(jiān)持解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：動(dòng)詞和介詞的搭配?？崭裉幪钊氲膭?dòng)詞應(yīng)與on 搭配。focus on 意為“將注意力集中于”，如，i cant focus on my work when im tired. 我累了就無(wú)法集中精力工作?？崭袼诰浯笠鉃椋弘娨曉u(píng)論員的作用是幫助觀眾將注意力集中在某些內(nèi)容上。focus on切合題意。a為正確選項(xiàng)。battend需要與to 連用，意為“留意，專心于”。如，she didnt attend to what i was saying. 她沒(méi)有注意我所說(shuō)的話。c follow o

23、n 意為“繼續(xù)下去”，但后面不能接賓語(yǔ)，如：he followed on after. 他在后面跟著。dinsist on意為“堅(jiān)持”，如：i insist on your taking/insist that you take immediate action to put this right. 我堅(jiān)決要求你立刻采取行動(dòng)把事情處理好。該選項(xiàng)與文義不符。12. a exhibit 展示，陳列 b demonstrate 演示，說(shuō)明c expose 暴露，揭示 d interpret解釋解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：動(dòng)詞詞義辨析。本題空格處填入動(dòng)詞，其賓語(yǔ)是the images，主語(yǔ)是上文he，因此該部

24、分的含義是：電視評(píng)論員電視屏幕上的圖像，所以，d interpret最符合文義，表示“解釋電視屏幕上的圖像”。13. a like像 b unlike不像，和.不同c as作為 d for為了 解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：介詞的用法+上下文的理解。先做14題再來(lái)解答13題?？崭袼诰浯笠鉃?，收音機(jī)評(píng)論員，電視評(píng)論員必須知道沉默的價(jià)值。根據(jù)常識(shí)及上文可知，收音機(jī)評(píng)論員絕大部分時(shí)間都在說(shuō)。因此二者截然不同，b unlike為最合適選項(xiàng)。14. a purpose 目的b goal 目標(biāo) c value 價(jià)值d intention 意圖 解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：名詞詞義辨析。空格所在部分指出，電視評(píng)論員他們必須

25、知道沉默的；下文給出了線索：即在電視圖像一目了然的時(shí)候如何利用沉默。所以，cvalue最符合文義。15. a if b when c which d as解析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：連詞、關(guān)系代詞、關(guān)系副詞的運(yùn)用。從選項(xiàng)來(lái)看，空格處填入連詞，和后面的部分構(gòu)成狀語(yǔ)從句。根據(jù)句意，這里應(yīng)該是一個(gè)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，即：電視評(píng)論員必須知道在電視圖像一目了然的時(shí)候如何保持沉默。when是引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句的常用連詞，符合上下文意。as也可以引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，但它指while sth else is happening，一般用于指一個(gè)動(dòng)作伴隨著另一個(gè)動(dòng)作發(fā)生，如：he sat watching her as she g

26、ot ready.他一直坐著看她準(zhǔn)備停當(dāng)。因此本題最佳答案為bwhen。which是關(guān)系代詞，在從句中做主語(yǔ)或賓語(yǔ)，而此處的賓語(yǔ)從句不缺主語(yǔ)或賓語(yǔ)，所以顯然不合適。if 引導(dǎo)條件狀語(yǔ)從句。全文翻譯電視剛剛普及時(shí)，那些已經(jīng)成名的收音機(jī)評(píng)論員，鮮有能夠在電視上同樣出色的。當(dāng)他們努力去適應(yīng)這種新媒體的時(shí)候，他們遇到的一些困難是技術(shù)方面的。比如，通過(guò)收音機(jī)進(jìn)行播音時(shí)，他們?cè)缫蚜?xí)慣于代表觀眾去看。這種替別人看實(shí)況的技能意味著評(píng)論員必須擅長(zhǎng)“說(shuō)”。最重要的是，他必須能夠通過(guò)語(yǔ)言在觀眾腦海里生成一系列圖像。這些圖像使聽(tīng)眾聽(tīng)到的聲音具有更多的意義。然而，電視評(píng)論員和觀眾一起觀看（圖像），因此，他的作用迥然不同

27、。他要確保觀眾不錯(cuò)過(guò)有趣的地方，并幫助觀眾將注意力放在某些值得注意的地方，還要解釋電視屏幕上的圖像。和收音機(jī)評(píng)論員不同的是，他必須知道沉默的作用，知道在電視圖像一目了然的時(shí)候如何保持沉默。section reading comprehensionpart adirections:each of the passages below is followed by some questions. for each question four answers are given.read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to eac

29、back a tidal wave of crime. something has gone terribly wrong with our once proud american way of life. it has happened in the area of values. a key ingredient is disappearing, and i think i know what it is: accountability.accountability isnt hard to define. it means that every person is responsible

35、ngage in criminal activities. if we free the criminal, even partly, from accountability, we become a society of endless excuses where no one accepts responsibility for anything.we in america desperately need more people who believe that the person who commits a crime is the one responsible for it.文章

36、總體結(jié)構(gòu)分析本文從一名警察的角度分析了美國(guó)社會(huì)中犯罪活動(dòng)猖獗的原因。指出：將犯罪行為歸咎于外部環(huán)境因素是犯罪活動(dòng)猖獗的主要原因，從而提出，更多的人應(yīng)該認(rèn)識(shí)到，真正該為犯罪行為負(fù)責(zé)的是罪犯自己。第一到四段為第一部分：指出責(zé)任感對(duì)社會(huì)的重要性。第五到九段為第二部分：指出現(xiàn)在大城市中正在忽略的自律恰恰是抑制犯罪的最有效方法。而人們?yōu)閷⒎缸镄袨闅w結(jié)于社會(huì)環(huán)境等外部因素恰恰是助長(zhǎng)了罪犯拒絕承擔(dān)責(zé)任的現(xiàn)象，從而導(dǎo)致了犯罪活動(dòng)的猖獗。第十段為第三部分：作者指出：更多的人應(yīng)該認(rèn)識(shí)到該為犯罪行為負(fù)責(zé)的是罪犯自己。16. what the wise man said suggests that_.16. 智者的話

37、表明_。a its unnecessary for good people to do anything in face of evila 面對(duì)邪惡，好人什么都不必做b its certain that evil will prevail if good men do nothing about itb 若好人無(wú)動(dòng)于衷，邪惡就會(huì)猖獗c its only natural for virtue to defeat evilc 善自然會(huì)戰(zhàn)勝惡d its desirable for good men to keep away from evild 好人應(yīng)該遠(yuǎn)離邪惡分析本題考核知識(shí)點(diǎn)：根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容理解句

38、子。本文以一句智者的話“邪惡的勝利就是善良之人無(wú)所作為”引入主題。從下文來(lái)看，作者主要論述的內(nèi)容是：人們對(duì)罪犯不應(yīng)該再采取縱容的態(tài)度，為他們的犯罪行為尋找借口，而應(yīng)該認(rèn)識(shí)到真正對(duì)犯罪行為負(fù)責(zé)的應(yīng)該是罪犯本人。b和文中內(nèi)容一致，為正確選項(xiàng)。a、d與智者的話意思相反。c文中未提到。17. according to the author, if a person is found guilty of a crime,_.17. 作者認(rèn)為，若有人被發(fā)現(xiàn)有罪，則_.a society is to be held responsiblea 社會(huì)應(yīng)該對(duì)此負(fù)責(zé)b modern civilization is

40、，把犯罪行為歸因于父母、社會(huì)、生活水平的態(tài)度恰恰導(dǎo)致了犯罪活動(dòng)的猖獗。18. compared with those in small towns, people in large cities have_.18. 和小城鎮(zhèn)相比，大城市的人_。a less self-disciplinea 缺少自我約束b better sense of disciplineb 有更好的自律精神c more mutual respectc 更互相尊重d less effective governmentd 缺少一個(gè)有效的政府分析 本題考核內(nèi)容：事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。第六、七段對(duì)比了大城市和小城市人們的自我約束性，指出，生

41、活在小城鎮(zhèn)（smaller towns）還在強(qiáng)調(diào)紀(jì)律（schools maintain discipline，parents hold up standard），而大城市里自我約束力非常松散（inner restraints are loosening）。所以，a符合原文內(nèi)容。 b和原文內(nèi)容相反。c、d本文未提及。19. the writer is sorry to have noticed that_.19.作者感到遺憾是因?yàn)榭吹絖。a people in large cities tend to excuse criminalsa大城市的人常常為罪犯找借口b people in small

43、罪犯態(tài)度的改變。三十年前，社會(huì)被認(rèn)為是犯罪活動(dòng)的受害者，而三十年后的今天，罪犯反倒被認(rèn)為是受害者：教育環(huán)境不好，家庭環(huán)境不利于成長(zhǎng)等。這說(shuō)明，令作者感到遺憾的是人們?yōu)樽锓刚医杩诘膽B(tài)度。a為正確選項(xiàng)。第六段介紹小鎮(zhèn)的人對(duì)紀(jì)律和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的堅(jiān)持是作者所贊賞的，排除b。c在本文中未提及。d和作者的觀點(diǎn)相反：第八、九段的內(nèi)容說(shuō)明，作者不認(rèn)為成長(zhǎng)環(huán)境惡劣是走向犯罪的理由。20. the key point of the passage is that_.20. 文章主要說(shuō)明_。a stricter discipline should be maintained in schools and familiesa

45、rribly wron）。第三、四段給出責(zé)任感的定義并指出，沒(méi)有責(zé)任感也就沒(méi)有社會(huì)的存在。第五段作者以警察的身份指出自我約束的重要行。第六、七段比較了人們對(duì)犯罪的態(tài)度的變化。第八段指出：人們將犯罪歸咎于外部因素的態(tài)度導(dǎo)致人們責(zé)任感的降低，從而導(dǎo)致犯罪活動(dòng)的猖獗。最后兩段中指出，不讓罪犯為自己的犯罪行為負(fù)責(zé)會(huì)導(dǎo)致所有的人都拒絕承擔(dān)責(zé)任。更多的人應(yīng)該相信：該為犯罪活動(dòng)承擔(dān)責(zé)任的是罪犯本人。綜合作者觀點(diǎn)，可以得出，本文旨在說(shuō)明，更多的人應(yīng)該接受責(zé)任感。因此d正確。 a雖然在第六段中提及，但不是文章的主要觀點(diǎn)。c和原文內(nèi)容不符：第五段指出，作者認(rèn)為對(duì)控制人們行為真正有效的是內(nèi)部約束力，而不是來(lái)自于外界

46、的控制。b文中未提及。全文翻譯一位智者曾說(shuō)過(guò)，邪惡的勝利就是善良之人無(wú)所作為。所以，所為一名警察，我有一些話急需告訴善良的人們。日復(fù)一日，我和我的同事盡力控制犯罪的蔓延。我們?cè)?jīng)引以為榮的美國(guó)生活方式出現(xiàn)了可怕的問(wèn)題。這個(gè)問(wèn)題處在我們的價(jià)值觀方面。一個(gè)關(guān)鍵的成分正在消失，我想，我知道它是什么責(zé)任感。責(zé)任感不難定義。它指的是人人要對(duì)其行為負(fù)責(zé)，并承擔(dān)其行為造成的后果。責(zé)任感可能是形成文明的眾多觀價(jià)值觀 (善良，仁慈等)中最重要的一個(gè)。沒(méi)有它，就沒(méi)有尊重、信任、法律最終也就沒(méi)有社會(huì)的存在。作為一名警察，我的工作就是把責(zé)任感強(qiáng)行加到那些拒絕承擔(dān)、或自己沒(méi)有學(xué)會(huì)承擔(dān)責(zé)任的人身上。但正如每一位警察都知道

47、的，對(duì)人行為的外部控制遠(yuǎn)不如自我約束（如罪惡感，羞恥心和難為情）有效。幸運(yùn)的是，在一些區(qū)域通常是小城鎮(zhèn)里，學(xué)校還維護(hù)紀(jì)律，父母還堅(jiān)持原則，稱“有些事情在我們家是不能容忍的你們絕不能去那樣做！”但在越來(lái)越多的地方，尤其是大城市和郊區(qū)，這些自我約束力日漸松懈。搶劫犯不再是你認(rèn)為的搶劫犯。他認(rèn)為你的財(cái)產(chǎn)就是他的財(cái)產(chǎn)；他拿走他想要的一切，當(dāng)你觸怒他時(shí)，他甚至?xí)米吣愕纳?。人們態(tài)度的根本變化造成了局面的完全崩潰。30年前，若有罪行發(fā)生，人們認(rèn)為受害者是社會(huì)?，F(xiàn)在，人們的態(tài)度發(fā)生了驚人的變化：最犯被認(rèn)為是受害者童年飽受貧困折磨，學(xué)校沒(méi)有教他讀書(shū)，教堂沒(méi)有給他以道德上的引導(dǎo)，父母沒(méi)有給他提供一個(gè)安定的家。

48、我不相信這些。同樣不利的環(huán)境中長(zhǎng)大的另外一些人為什么沒(méi)有選擇去犯罪？不讓罪犯承擔(dān)責(zé)任，甚至降低他們應(yīng)承的責(zé)任，都會(huì)讓我們的社會(huì)變成一個(gè)滿是借口的社會(huì)，沒(méi)有人愿意為任何事情承擔(dān)責(zé)任。美國(guó)急待更多的人相信：應(yīng)該為犯罪行為負(fù)責(zé)的人是罪犯自己。passage 2the period of adolescence, i. e., the period between childhood and adulthood, may be long or short, depending on social expectations and on societys definition as to what co
