真题
Most criminals are set free once they finish their jail terms. Is the re-introduction of criminals in society justified 1? What is your opinion? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
作文:
Setting dangerous criminals free is not unlike putting the society to throw dice 2 with security because this game is exactly the case with the re-introduction of criminals in society in the sense that good luck and bad luck are mixed with results remaining to be seen. Chances are habitual 3 evil-doers, once set free from jail, continue to present a constant threat to the security of communities. Unless some critical rules of the game are changed in reverse, the re-introduction system cannot be justified.
For want of another word, "revolving 4" is an adjective that may be used to describe a prison door. The door keeps turning around to let criminals in and out. More often than not, criminals are set free, caught again, free again, back to jail again, soon out again, only to be caught again, and then free again. Most criminals are said to have become immune to correction measures as punishments for their crimes. Alternatively, convicted criminals are now in jail, and later roaming in society. Such a vicious cycle makes neither economic sense nor social sense. In the end, the society turns out to be a sure loser.
True enough, keeping criminals longer in prisons means higher costs. As such, this is an economic loss for the society. From an opposite point of view, letting them out means the society is likely to pay another price: security. On balance, if money is not the issue, dangerous criminals had better be kept where they belong for a longer period of time. In the presence of rising crime rates in society, the wisdom is safety first.
It's time to review the re-introduction system while the prison door is "revolving." As crimes and punishments are out of steps, there leaves much room for doubt about the game being played in favor of criminals rather than of the society. Admitting that all men are created equal, nothing can justify 5 serious crimes not being punished severely 6. (Essay created by Jeenn Lee Hsieh ielts360toefl@hotmail.com )
