4、likely that people always blame the violent films or TV programs for this. Personally, I tend to believe that the government should control the amount of violence in media to bring down crime rates but that is far from enough to achieve the end. The problem with violence in films and on television i

5、s that its viewers who are often exposed to it are more likely to imitate the violent solutions when they find themselves in difficulty. This is particularly true if they are young children, who are not mature enough and more prone to violent images or actions. So the government should be responsibl

6、e for controlling and censoring what are going to be broadcast on TV or in films. For example, governments should be firmer about ratings of the films to make sure that children are not allowed the chance to watch them in the cinema. However, the mere efforts of the government are becoming insuffici

8、o and pay more attention and affection to them lest they might be led astray and end up with crimes. To sum up, it is evident that governments should impose strict controls on the violence in the media, but we should not place all the blame on the media. More introspection of adults and their effort

9、s are needed to reduce the amount of violent crimes in modern society as well. 【知识模块】 写作 2 【正确答案】 The media has had a long history of crime reporting. The right of the media to do this is rarely disputed, but the way in which it does often comes under criticism. One issue that has been discussed a l

10、ot recently is the amount of details that should be published. Those who believe that as much detail as possible should be published point to the demand for such information from the public and the principle of freedom of information. And many members of the public believe that the more information

11、they have, the better they can protect themselves from criminals. However, I think they are ignoring some potential side effects of this act. The main reason I think why the media should not give many details of crimes is simply because that it would alert the criminal to what the police know and do

12、 not know. This could allow the criminal to adjust his or her behavior and avoid detection or capture. Sometimes it actually might work as a kind of tutorial providing clues or tips to potential criminals. What is worse, giving certain details could cause danger to the victim, his or her families an

13、d any witnesses. As is shown in many crime reports, people get interviewed or offer help to the police. Coverage involving that could easily get innocent people into serious troubles or even life-threatening situations. To conclude, I believe that the police should control the amount of information

14、given to the media and victims of and witnesses to crimes should think carefully when talking to the media. This is not to say that crimes should not be reported, only that there is insufficient reason for so many details to be included. 【知识模块】 写作 3 【正确答案】 How to lower the crime rate is a constant c

15、oncern for the government, and opinions on how to go about this are deeply divided. In the past, imprisonment could deter people from committing crimes to a large extent. But today it seems that simply putting people behind bars will not lead to a drop in crime; instead, the crime rate has been incr

16、easing dramatically over recent decades. Therefore, people who are used to the conservative way of dealing with crime suggest longer sentencing should be put into practice. At first glance, a longer period of time being locked up in prison seems to be a tougher punishment, but as a matter of fact, i

17、t is neither severe enough to hardened or habitual criminals, nor makes any difference in rehabilitation of offenders. Actually, imprisonment should be used carefully; otherwise, it will be a total waste of resources or an obstacle to actually solving the problems. So when looking for ways to handle

18、 criminals or deter potential lawbreakers, the government needs to get to the root of the offending behavior and, more importantly, to deter reoffending. Then it is necessary for us to think about the motives of most criminals and analyse why it is hard for released prisoners to readjust to a normal

19、 life. One of the principal reasons is, I believe, the lack of life chances. By that I mean, they have almost no chance of education, medical care and employment, so they can barely make ends meet and survive. Thus, dealing with the issue of how to help these people is at the core of coping with cri

20、me related problems. In this case, the government should try harder to enhance sopial welfare systems so as to offer basic life standards to its people and work out some solutions, or build up a system to help those misguided people get back on the right track. In the end, I believe that the purpose

21、 of any punishment is not punishment itself but to prevent potential crimes and further, everyone deserves another chance and some help from the government to face up to life again. Education, medical care and job training would be more effective in achieving this end than prison, at least to most o

22、f the criminals. 【知识模块】 写作 4 【正确答案】 Places such as museums play an irreplaceable role in modern lives. This essay will outline the main functions of them and suggest some possible ways in which they could be funded. Public museums and art galleries are institutions that collect and safeguard histori

23、cal or artistic objects and works and make artifacts and specimens accessible, which they hold in trust for society. In a way, they are the only source of living history and perhaps an insight to the future world that lies before us. So the significance of them also lies in their role as a national

24、memory bank. High importance is also placed on the role of museums in providing an ideal learning environment, enabling children and adults to enter worlds that they may otherwise never get to know. Now many museums set aside study days to allow more intensive exploration of the cultural background

25、of an exhibition or area of the collections. And with the rise of technology, public museums and art galleries are able to provide the masses with interactive education on the spot. Visitors can experience hundreds of exhibits and investigate them further using scientific tools and instruments that

26、are provided to encourage visitors to make observations, look for relationships and draw their own conclusions. On a more materialistic level, museums contribute significantly to the countrys revenue, as it is a source of tourist attraction. Actually, those famous national or public museums bring in

27、 visitors from all over the world, which generate flourishing profits for the hotel, food and retail industries. So I think museums should be mainly funded by the government. In this case, free entry can attract more people to come to visit them so as to fulfill their roles as public assets to a larger extent. 【知识模块】 写作
