问题      There is controversy and misunderstanding about the proper functions of juvenile courts and their probation departments. There are cries that the whole process produces delinquents rather than rehabilitates them. There are speeches by the score about "getting enough" with the kids. Another large group thinks we should be more understanding and gentle with delinquents. This distrust of the services offered can be attributed in large part to the confusion in the use of these services throughout the country.
     On the one hand, the juvenile courts are tried to the criminal court system, with an obligation to decide guilt and innocence for offenses specifically stated and formally charged. On the other, they have the obligation to provide treatment, supervision and guidance to youngsters in trouble, without respect to the crimes of which they are accused. These two conflicting assignment must be carried out——quite properly——in an informal, private way, which will not stigmatize a youngster during his formative years.
     And, as the courts’ preoccupation with the latter task has increased, the former (that of dispensing justice) has retreated, with the result grave injustices are bound to occur. [br] The passage suggests that the author _________.
选项 A、is familiar with the problem
B、is impatient with justice
C、sides with those who favor leniency for juvenile offenders
D、regards all offenses an equally important
答案 A
解析 从文中可以看出作者了解文中问题的内容，其产生的原因及社会反应。由此可见，选项A是正确的，而其它的三项不是文中没有提及就是与文中内容相反。考生要正确理解文章内容，从而作出正确判断。
