Now, she is serving alife sentence without chance of parole (假释) at the LowellCorrectional Institution in Ocala, Florida. Looking back, Falconfaults her choice of friends."I was like a magnet for the wrong crowd," she says.At the time, Falcon was living with her grandmother in PanamaCity, Florida. On November 19, 1997, upset over an ex-boyfriend,she downed a large amount of alcohol and hailed a taxi with an 18-year-old friend. Her friend had a gun and, within minutes, the taxidriver was shot in the head. The driver, Richard Todd Phillips, 25,died several days later. Each of the teenagers later said the otherhad done the shooting.In Falcon's case, she was found guilty of murder, though it wasnever known precisely what happened. "It broke my heart," saysSteven Sharp, one of the people who made the decision to sendFalcon to prison. "Tough as it is, based on the crime, I think it'sappropriate. Still, it's terrible to put a 15-year-old behind barsforever."Falcon's case is not so uncommon in the US, but it is rare aroundthe world. About 9,700 American prisoners are serving lifesentences for crimes they committed before age 18. More than afifth have no chance for parole. Life without parole is available foryoung criminals in about a dozen countries, but a recent report by Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International found only 12 young criminals—in Israel, South Africa, and Tanzania—serving such sentences. In the U.S., more than 2,200 people are serving life without parole for crimes they committed before turning 18. More than 350 are 15 or younger.Cruel & Unusual?Young criminals are serving life terms (with or without the possibility of parole) in at least 48 states, according to a surveyby The New York Times, and their numbers have increased sharply in the past decade. Of those imprisoned in 2001, 95 percent were male and 55 percent were black.Is such punishment fair for young offenders? In March 2005, the Supreme Court ruled that the death penalty for crimes committed by people under 18 violates the Eighth Amendment to the Constitution, which prohibits "cruel and unusual punishments." That might have surprised the people who agreed to the Amendment in 1791, many of whom found such executions neither cruel nor unusual. But the Court said that the meaning of the Amendment changes with "evolving standards of decency." Their decision has convinced lawyers and activists that the next legal battleground in the US will be over life sentences for young criminals."Unformed" PersonalitiesThe Supreme Court ruled that youths under 18 who commit terrible crimes are less blameworthy than adults, at least for purposes of the death penalty: They are less mature, more willing to give in to peer pressure, and their personalities are unformed. "Even a terrible crime committed by a young person," Justice Anthony M. Kennedy concluded, is not "evidence of a hopelessly evil character."Most of those youthful qualities were evident in Falcon, who had trouble fitting in at school. She is in prison for murder, meaning she participated in a crime that led to a killing but was not proved to have killed anyone.Jim Appleman, the lawyer that tried to put Falcon in jail, says she does not ever deserve to be free. He is convinced that she shotPhillips. "If she were a 29-year-old or a 22-year-old," he says, "I have no doubt she would have gotten the death penalty."Although Falcon believes her sentence is unfair, she says her eight years in prison have changed her. "A certain amount of time being in jail was what I needed," she says. "But the law I fell under is for people who have no hope of being changed for the better, career criminals who habitually break the law, and there's just no hope for them in society. I'm a completely different case.""This can be hard"The case of another Florida teenager, Timothy Kane, shows how youths can be sent away for life, even when they were not central figures in a crime. (Florida is among the states with the largest number of young offenders—about 600—serving life sentences, about 270 without parole.)On Jan. 26, 1992, Kane, then 14, was playing video games at a friend's house in Hudson, Florida, while some older boys planned a robbery. That night, five youths rode their bikes over to a neighbor's home. Two backed out, but Kane followed Alvin Morton, 19, and Bobby Garner, 17, into the house. He did not want others to think he was scared, he recalls. "This is the decision that shaped my life since," says Kane.He says he thought the house would be empty. But Madeline Weisser, 75, and her son, John Bowers, 55, were home. While Kane hid behind a dining-room table, Morton shot and killed Bowers. He then stuck a knife in Weisser's neck; Garner stepped on the knife, nearly cutting off her head.Morton was sentenced to death. Garner, like Kane, a young offender, was given a life sentence with no possibility of parole for 50 years. Kane was also sentenced to life, but he may be able to get parole after serving 25 years. He doubts that the parole board will ever let him out.Kane grows emotional when talking about that January night. "I witnessed two people die," he says. "I regret that every day of my life, being any part of that and seeing that." He does not dispute that he deserved punishment but says his sentence is harsh. His days at Sumter Correctional Institution in Bushnell, Florida, are spent in the prison print shop making 55 cents an hour. "You haveno hope of getting out," Kane says. "You have no family. You have no moral support here. This can be hard."Will the court do anything to help?In deciding whether "evolving standards" have turned against a particular punishment, the Supreme Court looks at what the states are doing. Life without parole for young offenders is widely used, and only three states specifically ban it. If this form of punishment is to be banned by virtue of its violating the Eighth Amendment, it will likely happen only when a majority of the states first get rid of it.Robert W. Attridge, the lawyer in Kane's case, says he feels sorry for him. "But he had options," Attridge says. "He had a way out. Two other boys decided to leave."Could Tim Kane be your kid, being in the wrong place at the wrong time?" the lawyer asks. "I think he could. It only takes one night of bad judgment and, man, your life can be ruined."1.What happened on November 19, 1997?A. Falcon's boyfriend drank alcohol.B. A taxi driver was shot.C.

Barry Venable said. "Ways we're going about that include blocking public access to the Web sites, because that's the way this worm works, to prevent it from using our networks to propagate (繁殖) itself."The virus exploits a security flaw (缺陷) in certain Microsoft network servers. The flaw was announced last month when a patch was released to fix it."To protect our DoD web sites from being compromised, DoD organizations have been told to review the status of the Internet information servers... to make sure that all the patches that were previously installed had been installed," says Venable.Only a handful of the major Defense Department sites, with the suffix ".mil," appear currently accessible to the public, including the central public affairs site DefenseLink and the military services' main homepages. Public access is blocked to information connected to those sites, and others such as the National Missile Defense site and the US Air Force's European site. Registered Department of Defense personnel continue to have access to the sites, Venable said.1.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. The Code Red Worm.B. DoD Blocks Public Web Site Access.C. DoD Was Attacked.D. Protect DoD Web Sites Against Viruses.2.The word "contracted" most probably means ________.A. make less or smallerB. get an illnessC. make a legal agreementD. formally agree to marry somebody3.Which of the following statements is NOT true about theCode Red worm?A. It can multiply in large numbers.B. It may make a computer system stop working.C. It's included in a patch released by Microsoft.D. It may destroy the connection between legitimate usersand the sites.4.Public access is blocked to most DoD web sites so that________.A. the Code Red worm can't use the web site to replicatesitself and send copiesB. DoD organizations can have necessary patches installedto protect their sitesC. the defense secrets can be prevented from being revealedD. the mistake in certain Microsoft network servers canbe corrected5.Which of the following is NOT a measure taken by DoD tofight against the Code Red worm?A.

The chances of success are perhaps even less.No law of causality (因果关系) exists to insist that in choosing a travel companion you will lose a friend. But it's not unlikely. The odds depend on the length and the rigorousness (严密) of the trip. Some friendships have a strength that will withstand even travel; others are by nature short-lived and travel merely hastens their dissolution (结束，终止).Perhaps I should make it clear that in discussing this matter of travel companions I am confining myself to Platonic (柏拉图式的) friendships. Intimate friends may well be the best companions of all. Compromises and concessions from such companions clearly spring from a recognized emotional base that colors every issue. I'll confine myself, then, to companions, male and female, who are sharing a trip solely for company. Why bother at all with a travel companion? Why not travel alone, shiftily (机智地) pursuing one's goal? Some of the answers are obvious. A pleasant fellow traveler eases the stress and tensions, adds to the delights and rewards and pays half the bills. However, a bad-tempered companion quite often brings you to the point where you devoutly (虔诚地) wish you were alone.Finding that suitable companion is something of an art and something of a gamble. But the choice should be determined by one important rule: travelers should be going on the trip with the same idea in mind. They should hold in common a theory of travel.45.Choosing a travel companion is hard and risky, because ________.A. one may lose a friendB. one may suffer financial lossesC. one may be trapped in the dangerous situationD. one may miss the chance of finding the right marriage partner46.When intimate friends travel together, ________.A. the trip will hasten their dissolutionB. the trip will make them closer to each otherC. they will find the right ways to solve problems due to their relationshipD. they will make more friends on trip47.It can be inferred from the passage that the companion talked about here is the person________.A. one can think of developing a deeper relationship withB. one can travel with merely for companyC. one can count on for a free travelD. one can learn much from48.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Choosing a travel companion won't lead to the loss of friends.B. Friendships cannot withstand the test of any trip.C. A travel companion is badly needed if one wants to take a trip.D. Like-minded people should travel together.49.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Travel and Marriage-Two Similar ExperiencesB. Finding a Good Travel Companion-a Risky MatterC. Will Travel Damage the Friendship?D. Should One Travel Alone or in Another's Company?Questions 50 to 54 are based on the same passage or dialog.During the long vacation I was accepted as a trainee bus conductor. I found the job fiercely demanding even on a short route with a total of about two dozen passengers. I pulled the wrong tickets, forgot the change and wrote up my log (行程记录) at the end of each trip in a way that drew hollow laughter from the inspectors. The inspectors were likely to check at any time. A conductor with twenty years' service could be dismissed if an inspector caught him accepting money without pulling a ticket.It was hot that summer: 100° Fahrenheit (华氏) every day. Inside the bus it was 30° hotter still. It was so jammed inside that my feet weren't touching the floor. I couldn't blink (眨眼睛) the sweat out of my eyes. There was no hope of collecting any fares.In these circumstances I was scarcely to blame. I didn't even know where we were, but I guessed we were at the top just before Market Street. I pressed the bell, the doors closed, and the bus surged forward. There were shouts and yells from down the back, but I thought they were the angry cries of passengers who had not got on. Too late I realized that they were coming from within the bus. The automatic doors at the back of the bus had closed around an old lady's neck as she was getting on. Her head was inside the bus. The rest of her, carrying a shopping bag was outside. I knew none of this at the time.When I at last signaled the driver to stop, he crashed to a halt and opened the automatic doors. The woman dropped to the road. Unfortunately, the car behind turned out to be full of inspectors. Since it would have made headlines if a university student had almost half-killed a woman of an advanced age, I was given the opportunity to leave quietly.50.What do we learn about the inspectors in the first paragraph?A. They found the writer amusing.B. They never wore uniforms.C. They were feared by employees.D. They distrusted older employees.51.Why was the writer unable to do his job properly?A. He wasn't tall enough.B. The buses were too fast.C. People avoided paying.D. He couldn't move.52.The old lady in the incident described ________.A. was injuredB. faintedC. was draggedD. hit her head53.When the incident with old lady happened, ________.A. the writer had already decided to give up the jobB. the writer's employers wanted to avoid publicityC. the writer was offered the chance to continueD. the consequences were as the writer expected54.What is the writer's attitude now to the job?A. He feels responsible for the incident that ended it.B. He thinks that he was unfairly treated by the inspectors.C. He is ashamed that he was incapable of doing it properly.D. He believes that it was an impossible job to do well.Questions 55 to 59 are based on the same passage or dialog.Urban (城市的) life has always involved a balancing of opportunities and rewards against dangers and stress; its moving force is, in the broadest sense, money. Opportunities to make money make competition stressful; it is often at its most intense in the largest cities, where opportunities are greatest. Crime has always flourished in the relative anonymity (人所不知) of urban life, but today's ease of movement makes its control more difficult than ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of communities. City dwellers (居民) may become trapped in their homes by the fear of crime around them.As defense against these developments, city dwellers tend to use various strategies to try and reduce the pressures upon themselves: contacts with other people are generally made brief andimpersonal; doors are kept locked; telephone numbers may be ex-directory (未列入电话号码簿的); journeys outside the home are usually hurried, rather than a source of pleasure.Inner areas of cities tend to be abandoned by the more successful and left to those who have done badly in the competitive struggle or who belong to minority groups; these people are then geographically trapped because so much economic activity has migrated to the suburbs and beyond.Present-day architecture and planning have enormously worsened the human problems of urban life. Old-established neighborhoods have been ruthlessly (无情地) swept away, by both public and private organizations, usually to be replaced by huge, ugly, impersonal structures. People have been forced to leave their familiar homes, usually to be re-housed in tower blocks which are inconvenient, and fail to provide any setting for human interaction or support. The destruction of established social structures is the worse possible approach to the difficulties of living in a town or city. Instead, every effort should be made to conserve (保护) the human scale of the environment, and to retain familiar landmarks.55.According to the author, living in a city causes stress because there are so many people whoare ________.A. anxious to succeedB. in need of helpC. naturally aggressiveD. likely to commit crime56.The author thinks that crime is increasing in cities because ________.A. people do not communicate with their neighborsB. criminals are difficult to trace in large populationsC. people feel anonymous thereD. the trappings of success are attractive to criminals57.The majority of people who live in inner cities tend to quit from the inner areas because they________.A. dislike having to travel far to workB. have been forced by circumstances to do soC. don't like the idea of living in the suburbsD. have turned against society58.Architectural changes have affected city life by ________.A. scattering long-established communitiesB. giving the individual a say in planningC. forcing people to live on top of each otherD. making people move to the suburbs59.The author's general argument is that urban life would be improved by ________.A. moving people out of tower blocksB. restoring old buildingsC. building community centersD. preserving existing social systemsPart 7 Fill in the Blanks (with the right preposition or adverb)(Each item: 1)Directions: Fill in the blanks in the following sentences with an appropriate preposition or adverb. Fill in each blank with only ONE word.60.The case is being looked ; when we have anything to report we'll write to them.61.What information they do have is often inaccurate and loaded unrealexpectations.62.He was convicted carrying an offensive weapon and got a 28-day suspendedsentence and a heavy fine.63.He claims that his organization is a nonprofit one and he works for charity butthe table he's making money.64.This is certainly true, but this explanation can hardly account the economicdisaster the country is facing now.65."Cast this slave woman with her son," she commands Abraham, "for the son ofthis slave woman shall not be here with my son Isaac."66.He took off his shoes and stretched himself on the bed once he reached home,tired from a whole day's work.67.Sarah has to room with her identical twin Katie the time being until she finds aplace of her own.68.Employers therefore resorted the reduction of costs, most particularly inwages, in order to compete in world markets.69.Thoreau was referred as the American high priest of solitude.Part 1 Word Dictation(Each item: 1)1.receipt2.certify3.thrive4.pension5.solitary6.inspiration7.slippery8.dilemmaPart 2 Understanding Short Conversations(Each item: 2)9-11 CDDTranscript:9.M: We need to clean up the apartment before our caseworker arrives.

I'm really excited about it.M: I bet.

I'm here now for my interview.W: Oh, yes, I know all about that job. I did it two years ago.M: Really, did you like it?W: I think it was the best job I've had at school. It paid eight dollars an hour, which was three dollars an hour more than I got working at the school post office the year before.M: That is a good salary. What did you do?W: I was in charge of grading all the problem sets that were assigned as homework. I never had trouble doing it, and of course, Prof. Lee was always available to help me if I had any questions.M: I think I'd enjoy doing that sort of work. It would be very good experience for anyone thinking about becoming a teacher.W: Absolutely. You also learn how to use the computer database, because the records are kept on it, and building up your computer skills is a good preparation for lots of jobs.M: The job sounds great, but I'm a little worried about how much time it might take.W: It's pretty reasonable.

What can be inferred from the passage?Part 4 Understanding Passages(Each item: 2)20-24 BBCCATranscript:In less than 20 years, from 1975 to 1993, the number of Americans over 65 who live with their adult children declined by half, dropping from 18 percent to less than 10 percent. There are certainly many reasons for this decrease, from the improved health of older Americans to the number of two-or-more-job households. But a third of the over-65 population lives entirely alone.When middle-aged children in America announce that their 80-or-90-year-old mother "still lives in her own house", I notice that they are quite proud and satisfied. But do the old people in the United States like to live alone?No doubt some of them do. Or at least some of them prefer living alone. They don't like to change their habits or adjust to new ones when living with others. After all, independence is the chief virtue in this country.Independence is one of the things older Americans try to achieve in their lives. But if you live alone long enough, independence inevitably becomes an illusion. You can no longer keep up with the yard work, so you move to an apartment or even a center for the elderly. And you can't see well enough to drive anymore.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the passage you have just heard.1. What is the passage about?2. In 1993, what portion of American old people lived with their children?3. What is the effect of improved health for the elderly?4. What can be inferred from the passage?5.

新视野大学英语第三版读写教程第四册第二单元课后练习答案(20200419111658)
1. How do you understand the sentence "No amount of rehearsal will help youcome up with the right answer" (Para. 2)?Reference:The sentence means that it is very difficult, or even impossible, for a man togive a right answer when a woman asks him how she looks, no matter howhard he thinks about it and how many different answers he tries.2. According to the text, in what way do men and women evaluate theirappearance differently?Reference:Men are satisfied with being average-looking, paying little attention to theirlooks. In contrast, women pay great attention to their body and image,considering their appearance as not good enough even if they are in factattractive.3. What causes women to be always dissatisfied with their looks?Reference:The interaction of many psychological and societal factors, for example, theirchildhood experiences with toys, and the influence of the media.4. In what way do the toys girls play with differ from those boys play with?Reference:Girls' toys are proportioned to have extreme measures of the body (e.g. interms of height, weight and waist size), whereas boys' toys can look weirdrather than handsome.5. What does the sentence "You could not imagine him saying to the others, ‘Is this accessory the right shade of violet for this outfit?'" (Para. 6) imply?Reference:It implies that men pay little attention to the details of their appearance.6. Why is the supermodel Cindy Crawford mentioned in Paragraph 7?Reference:Cindy Crawford is mentioned as an example to show that the beauty industry and the media have great influence on women's devotion to physical beauty and the use of beauty products.7. What is the author's attitude toward the claim that women care much about their appearance due to pressure from men?Reference:The author thinks that the claim is not right since men in fact pay little attention to the details of women's appearance.8. Why do women think that men are not qualified to judge whether a woman looks good or not?Reference:Women think so because men do not even care about their own appearance. For instance, a man often does not bother to clean the cream in his hair or ears after shaving.1. What are the factors that make women pay much greater attention to their appearance than do men?Reference:I think there are three main factors accounting for women's greater attention to appearance. The first are cultural traditions. It is common in many cultures that people put high value on beauty when they look at women. The second is the requirement of certain jobs. For example, in China airline companies set certain criteria for appearance (e.g. in terms of height and weight) when they recruit stewards and stewardesses. Finally, the influence of the media is another strong factor which shapes women's pursuit of physical beauty. There are a lot of advertisements of cosmetics and skincare products in various media such as TV, magazines and newspapers. They often havecelebrities as the spokesperson for the advertised products, which makes women have an illusion that they could look as good as those famous stars if they use the products. In short, these three factors exert immense influence on how women value appearance.2. Are there any occasions in life where it is necessary for a person, either a woman or a man, to look good? Why or why not?Reference:? Yes. On certain formal occasions, a person, either female or male, has to pay attention to his attire. Sample cases are job interviews, business meetings, weddings, and banquets. This is because to dress properly is an important element of successful completion of these events.? No. People do not have to care what others think of them as long as they feel comfortable and satisfied with their looks themselves. After all, this is the most important source of happiness to people.3. What do you consider as the most important traits that make a person beautiful?Reference:In my opinion, the important traits of human beauty include two types, one for appearance and one for inner qualities. Features that characterize a beautiful appearance are a good-looking body, proper clothes and accessories, as well as use of makeup that matches the occasion or event one is attending. Inner qualities that make a person beautiful mainly include good manners and positive personality traits such as honesty, bravery or friendliness.4. What do you think of the relationship between wearing makeup and female beauty? In other words, do women have to apply cosmetics in order to look beautiful? Why or why not?Reference:? Yes. Women should pay great attention to their appearance and hence need to wear makeup. This is because beauty is, believe it or not, usually an important quality for women to succeed, for example, when they want to look for a job or an ideal husband.? No. What really makes a person beautiful is inner beauty rather thanphysical appearance. A beautiful look can't last long, but inner beauty, for example, intelligence and honesty, may make a person successful andhappy throughout his life.5. If you were the head of a cosmetics company, how would you market orpromote a new product?Reference:I would market a new product by three means. First, I can ask a celebrity, for example a famous movie star or a supermodel, to be the brandspokesperson on TV. This is a common practice in the advertising industry,and I think it is very effective. Second, I will hire people to distribute flyersand give away free samples of the product on the streets, so the product can reach potential customers directly. In addition, I may post advertisements on public transportation vehicles such as buses and subways. In this way, the commercials can be seen by a large number of people.Fill in the blanks with the words given below. Change the form wherenecessary.

III. Summary
Chaplin is a great comic not only for his own mother country but more for the world. Chaplin’s Tramp was considered a little _c_ru_d_e_ and thought that he had too much of an eye for the ladies and that his clothes gave him an _a_p_p_e_a_ra_n_c_e_ more like an Italian waiter than anything else. He resisted making a _ta_l_k_in_g_ movie until 1936 when he made up a _n_o_n_s_e_n_s_e_ language which sounded like no known nationality. Chaplin achieved great success because he was an immensely _ta_l_e_n_te_d_ man and the kind of comic who used his _p_h_y_s_ic_a_l senses to invent his art as he went along.
