The modern approach to the treatment of criminals owes most to psychiatric and case-study methods. Much continues to be learned from offenders who have been placed on probation or parole and whose behavior, both in and out of prison, has been studied intensively. The contemporary scientific attitude is that criminals are individual personalities and that their rehabilitation can be brought about only through individual treatment. Increased juvenile crime has aroused public concern and has stimulated study of the emotional disturbances that foster delinquency. This growing understanding of delinquency has contributed to the understanding of criminals of all ages.

Burglary
A few weeks ago, while we were out at the cinema, we had our house broken into. We’d been meaning to have locks fitted on the windows, but we hadn’t had the work done, and so the burglars found it easy to get in. Luckily we didn’t have many things taken. When the police arrived, they got us to go through the house and check what was missing. We were actually having a new kitchen fitted at that time, and some power tools had been stolen. One of the burglars was seen acting suspiciously near another house a few days later, and got himself arrested. When he had had his fingerprints taken at the police station, the police were able to prove he was one who had burgled us. Since then we have had new locks fitted and a new alarm installed. Next week we’re having bars put on the ground floor windows, so we’re hoping not to get burgled again.
Основной идеей текста является:
a) It’s necessary to put bars on the ground floor windows to protect your house.
b) Police will always find a burglar.
c) Don’t leave your house if you don’t want to have your house broken into.
d) Proper protection of the house includes having locks fitted, an alarm installed and bars put the ground floor windows.

Crime and punishment
I am one of those people who would like to see changes made to current types of punishment in the criminal justice system. It would surely be better to sentence minor offenders to community service of some kind, rather than giving them fines or prison sentences. That way they would at least do something useful, and the justice system would also save money. I would also imagine that this would work better for young offenders, as they wouldn’t feel “cool” or fashionably “bad” while they helped an old person or cleaned the streets. Of course, a system of this kind wouldn’t work effectively without some thought being given to the tasks which offenders were asked to perform. There would obviously be more benefit to be gained from work which involved responsibility, and where offenders had to mix with others and communicate with them. Some people also think that offenders should meet and talk to their victims, and be more involved with compensating and even helping them. This would certainly help to make offenders realize the consequence of their actions, and that might well stop them offending again.
Основной идеей текста является:
Current types of punishment in the criminal justice system should be:
a) much more various b) much milder c) much stricter d) changed
