In the high mountain country outside the city of Toluker, there stands a prison. This prison is quite different from other prisons in the world. The guards, except for two at the main gate, are not armed.[25]There are many remarkable things about Toluker Prison. For example, of the 15,000 individuals who have been in prison at Toluker, less than two percent have got into trouble again with the law.[22]Men in the open prison are free to find work on the outside but must go back to prison each night. On weekends they are allowed to go home. When most other prisons are still sending criminals back into society, Toluker is returning people who stand on their own feet and contribute to society.
In 1974, a prisoner called Barb Crook moved to the open prison. A year later, he left Toluker for the last time.[24]He was then nearly 46 and had been in prison for 14 years. He got a job as construction worker in the city, remarried and was regarded as a useful person in his community. If you ask Bob why Toluker works, he would say "Because they believed in me when I was at my worst."
22. Why is Toluker Prison called an open prison?
23. What is the essential characteristic of Toluker Prison?
24. How long did Barb Crook stay in Toluker Prison?
25. What is the speaker’s attitude toward this type of prison?
选项
A、The prisoners are provided with jobs on release.
B、Its prisoners are seldom made to work overtime.
C、It is run on the principle of trusting prisoners.
D、It has no security measures.
答案
C
解析
推断题。短文首先指出Toluker Prison与其他监狱不同,这里除了大门口的两位狱警外其他狱警都没有武器,另外,这里的犯人可以在外面自由工作(free to find work on the outside),接着介绍了一位在该监狱服刑的犯人Barb Crook,他成了一位对社会有用的人,当被问及why Toluker works时他回答说:they believed in me when I was at my worst。可见Toluker Prison最大的特点就是本着信任犯人的原则,故答案为C)。
