1. Capital Punishment
2. Shoplifting
3. Crime Prevention
4. Kidnapping
5. Frightening Changes
6. Long-Term Effect
7. Virtual Crime
8. Guilty or Not Guilty?

A. The presumption of innocence is a legal right that the accused in criminal trials has in many modern countries. The burden of proof is thus on the prosecution. It has to collect and present enough compelling evidence to convince the jury of the fact that beyond a reasonable doubt the accused has broken the law. In case of remaining doubts, the accused is to be acquitted.

B. Sarah and Lisa always enjoyed hanging out at the mall. But one Saturday, after shopping for jeans, Sarah pulled a new shirt out of her bag. Lisa didn’t remember seeing her buy it. ‘I didn’t,’ Sarah told her. ‘I lifted it.’ Lisa was upset and puzzled. Stealing didn’t seem like something Sarah would do. Sometimes people do not realize the consequences of this crime.

C. Even families living in so-called ‘safe’ neighbourhoods are concerned. They may feel safe today, but there is always a reminder that violence can intrude at any moment. Polly Klaas and her family no doubt felt safe in Petaluma, California. But on October 1, 1993, she was abducted from her suburban home during a sleepover. If she can be abducted and murdered, so can nearly any other child.

D. The Internet is a great place to find information, make friends, keep in touch with others, and do business. There always are other sides as long as there is a criminal element. As our world becomes more computerized and ever more interconnected, different kinds of computer crimes will continue to grow. These include break-ins of computers to get trade secrets or illegal entry for the thrill and challenge.

E. Movie violence these days is louder and bloodier than ever before. When a bad guy was shot in a black-and-white Western, the most we saw was a puff of smoke and a few drops of fake blood. Now the sights, sounds, and special effects often jar us more than the real thing. Slow motion and pyrotechnics conspire to make movies and TV shows more gruesome than ever.

F. University of Illinois psychologist Leonard Eron studied children at age eight and then again at eighteen. He found that television habits established at the age of eight influenced aggressive behaviour through childhood and adolescent years. The more violent were the programs preferred by boys in the third grade, the more aggressive was their behaviour, both at that time and ten years later.

G. In the debate about execution and human dignity, supporters and opponents of the death penalty have found very little common ground. Since the 18th century, those who wish to abolish the death penalty have stressed the significance of requiring governments to recognize the importance of each individual. However, supporters of this penal practice see nothing wrong with governments deliberately killing terrible people who commit terrible crimes.

Criminal punishment of persons who have committed crimes is one of the forms of state fight against crime. Any criminal punishment is always a restriction of the rights of convicted persons. This restriction is a sort of retribution for the crime a person committed. If a person is convicted, the court decides on the most appropriate sentence. The facts of the offence, the circumstances of the offender, his/her previous convictions are taken into account. The more serious an offence is, the stricter a penalty should be.

But in any case, the responsibility of the court is to impose an exact and just punishment relevant to the gravity of a crime. The more just the punishment is, the greater is the possibility of a person’s reformation. The defense lawyer may make a speech in mitigation on behalf of the offender.

There are the following basic penalties: deprivation of liberty — imprisonment for a certain period of time or life imprisonment, exile, fines or public censure. Capital punishment is usually used only as an exceptional measure when an especially grave crime was committed. The list of such crimes is not long and it is strictly determined by law. There are quite a lot of countries where death penalty prohibited.

Her son had stolen clothes worth $ 28,000 and dropped into the same branch of one
particular shop three times in one week. He played with the laces of his $ 100 trainers as
the court heard he had also 4……….. his local chemist’s at least six
times.

initials and advising: “Ring the police”.

The boy, who cannot be identified for law reasons, 5……….. seven
charges of burglary and asked for another 24 to be taken into 6………

but I can’t 7……….. him”.

city is too high and extreme measures should be taken to reduce it”.

Appendix Text for reading. Task № 9

Corruption

Sharon had marched up to my desk, obviously furious, and demanded “a word outside”.
At that moment I was just curious to find out what had bothered her so much. I followed
her outside. “I’ve just paid a little visit to our old friend Fat Mickey,” she said,
“to put some pressure on him about last year’s Renfrew robbery, and he says you took
some cash to “lose” some evidence. Well?

If I’d known what was coming. I could have reacted better, but I’d been caught
completely off guard and I knew it showed. “It’s a lie,” I said, as coolly as I
could. “He’s a criminal and will say anything.” I hoped I sounded convincing but she
was looking straight at me with her sharp blue eyes and I left like a schoolboy in trouble
with the headmaster. I leaned back against the wall trying to look like I didn’t have a
care in the world, despite the fact that I was having difficulty breathing and I could
feel the beads of sweat gathering on my forehead.

Sharon was a woman I’d always admired. A tough detective and a very good one, too. It
wasn’t easy for a woman to make it as a detective and earn the respect of all her
colleagues. But it hadn’t been easy for me either, a boy from the poorest area in
Glasgow. I was a good detective, one of the best, in fact, and I’d only ever made one
mistake – taking money from Mickey. It had been just after I had split up with my wife
and I was badly in debt. I had never done anything like it before and I never intended to
do it again.

Now, as Sharon confronted me, I felt small, ugly and very guilty. I also felt

annoyed with her at the moment. What made her so perfect? Had she never put a foot
wrong anywhere? Ever? My mind raced as I tried to decide what to do. Should I tell the
truth, explain what had happened and hope she’d take my side? Or should I just brush off
the accusation and pray she didn’t tell anyone? I had no idea if this conversation could
finish off my promising career as a police officer or not.

At the end of the day it would all come down to my word against Mickey’s and he was
just a cheap criminal. But I didn’t want people whispering behind my back, wondering if
it were true, whether I really was a corrupt officer off the law. If word goes out, this
would always be on my record. Once your superiors had lost confidence in you it was almost
impossible to get it back and I didn’t want to lose my chance of further promotion.
I’d already made it to detective inspector and I saw no reason why I couldn’t go
higher. Except now there was Mickey’s betrayal casting a dark shadow over my dreams.

I shrugged my shoulders and attempted a cheeky grin at Sharon. “You’re the last
person I expected to believe Mickey. I should be offended,” I said. She laughed, but it
was an empty laugh and it didn’t reach her cold eyes. “I didn’t believe him. Until
now, that is. It’s a shame really, because you were always the one person in the station
that I looked up to. I thought you were very honest and I’ve just lost a little more
faith in humanity,” she said. “But don’t worry, your dirty little secret is safe
with me.”

As I watched her turn around and go back into the station, I finally managed to take a
deep breath. Of course, I was very relieved that she wouldn’t talk and I trusted her
because I knew that, unlike me, she really was an honest person. But her words had
affected me deeply. I had lost her respect forever. I would be able to hold my head high
with everyone in the station, apart from her. Even if I ever did manage to get the
promotion I longed for, there would always be one person who knew I didn’t deserve it.
