新视野大学英语book4 unit2快速阅读答案Part 4 Skimming and Scanning (Multiple Choice + Blank Filling)(每小题:分)Directions: Read the following passage and then answer the questions. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Questions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.Locked Away ForeverThe Sad Case of Rebecca FalconOne night when she was just 15, Rebecca Falcon got drunk and made the decision that ruined her entire life. Now, she is serving a life sentence without chance of parole (假释) at the Lowell Correctional Institution in Ocala, Florida. Looking back, Falcon faults 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 Panama City, 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 taxi driver was shot in the head. The driver, Richard Todd Phillips, 25, died several days later. Each of the teenagers later said the other had done the shooting.In Falcon's case, she was found guilty of murder, though it was never known precisely what happened. "It broke my heart," says Steven Sharp, one of the people who made the decision to send Falcon to prison. "Tough as it is, based on the crime, I think it's appropriate. Still, it's terrible to put a 15-year-old behind bars forever."Falcon's case is not so uncommon in the US, but it is rare around the world. About 9,700 American prisoners are serving life sentences for crimes they committed before age 18. More than a fifth have no chance for parole. Life without parole is available for young 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 survey by 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 lifesentences 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 shot Phillips. "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 willever 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 have no 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. Falcon drove into a taxi.D. Phillips killed Falcon's friend.2.In the U.S., the number of people who are serving life sentence with no parole forcrimes they committed before age 18 is ________________.A. more than 2,200B. about 9,700C. only 12D. more than 3503.Giving the death penalty to people under 18 goes against ________________.A. the Supreme CourtB. standards of decency in 1791C. the Eighth AmendmentD.
