M: Emily, I know you’ve been the victim of a crime.
W: Unfortunately, yes. [1]
Once I was mugged by some young kids.
M: What happened?
W: [1]/[2]
I was going home late at night,
and I couldn’t see a single person on the street. And it was winter, oh; it was so cold, so I had my scarf wrapped around my face. And suddenly I walked straight in-to three guys; they looked about 14 or 15. And they said something threatening, like "give us all your money, or I’m going to kill you." I looked at them, because they looked so young, and I was thinking, "What on earth were you doing?" They said blablabla, and I said, "Listen, it’s very cold. Give me a second. I have to take off my gloves."
M: You must be really scared.
W: Well I opened my purse and all I had got was a few dollars. I was so nervous that I said, "Here it is." [3]
And they said, "Four dollars?" "Yeah, it’s four dollars."
And they said, "That’s all you have?"
M: So, so then what happened?
W: Well, [4]
I gave them money, and I just went home.
But I felt so bad when I was walking down the street. You know I really had mixed feelings about it. I wanted to say "Guys, what are you doing? You know, go home, you are ruining your lives." And I think, "Why are those kids on the street doing things they are not supposed to do? Something stupid, really stupid. That could lead to something worse."
M: Why do you think kids get involved in stealing?
W: I don’t know, I mean it was only four dollars. You look at kids getting involved in this kind of small crime, and you think, "Who is responsible?" I don’t know what they were doing out on the street at that time of night.
M: Did you report the crime?
W: No, I didn’t. Kids like that don’t need prosecuting, and they need parenting. They need someone to put them on the right path. These kids really need, you know, help.
M: In what way?
W: Well, kids are so vulnerable. [5]
They have to have a lot of supervision.
There are kids hanging on the street doing things they are not supposed to do. I think if these kids have more self-esteem, they wouldn’t behave in that way. We have to find ways to help these kinds of kids have good futures, and then they wouldn’t commit crimes.
1. In what way has Emily been the victim of a crime?
2. When did the crime occur?
3. What amount of loss did she suffer in the crime?
4. What did she do after the crime occurred?
5. What did she think about those who committed the crime?
选项
A、Her purse was stolen on the metro.
B、Her home was broken into when she was vacationing.
C、She was robbed on her way home.
D、She was attacked by two kids on the street.
答案
C
解析
①从选项中的stolen,broken into,robbed和attacked可推测对话与某次犯罪案件相关。②对话开头男士对Emily说:“听你曾经是一次犯罪行为的受害者。”Emily回答说被几个年轻孩子抢劫了。男士问怎么发生的,她说是在回家的路上发生的。C项中的robbed是原文mugged的同义替换,为答案。抢劫案发生在街上,故A“她的钱包在地铁上被偷了”不对。B“她家在她度假时被人破门而入”与抢劫案无关。D“她在街上受到了两个孩子的攻击”错在人数(应为三个)和attacked。
