An expert suggested that certain criminals should be sent to prison in their own home. When the scheme was first put forward publicly,many people opposed it or had serious reserva?tions about it. One very experienced social worker opposed the scheme in a television interview. When asked to explain the basis for his opposition,he thought for a moment and finally con?fessed, "Well,I guess, because it's new. That's my only reason.”
Advocates of the scheme pointed out that courts frequently sentenced first offenders to com?munity service of some kind rather than send them to prison. The stigma of having a criminal re?cord was an adequate deterrent, and nothing positive was achieved by sending some types of convicted people to prison.
Some critics rushed to take extreme cases. "If a murderer is allowed free in the community like this,what is to prevent him from killing somebody else?" This argument ignored the fact that nobody proposed to allow convicted murderers to use the bracelet system. One criticism put forward was that an offender could take off his bracelet and leave it at home or give it to a friend to wear while he himself wet off to commit another crime. The reply to this was that the bracelet would be made so that the computer would immediately detect any attempts to take it off or tamper with it.
A more serious objection to the scheme was that the harsh life of prison was intended to be
part of the deterrent to crime. A prisoner who was allowed to live at home would suffer no parti-
cular discomfort and thus not be deterred from repeating his crime. No immediate action was
taken on the proposal. It was far too revolutionary and needed to be examined very carefully.
However, the idea was not rejected. Several governments appointed experts to investigate the
scheme and make recommendations for or against it.
( ) 5. People's opinions are divided on the suggestion that
A. some criminals should serve their terms at home
B. social workers can express themselves on TV
C. first offenders should be sentenced to community service
D. old offenders should be imprisoned
( ) 6. A social worker opposed the proposal for the reason that
A. it is unique B. it is creative
C. it is novel D. it is out-of-date
( ) 7. The supporters of the scheme will probably agree that
A. the hard life of prison may prevent some people from repeating a crime
B. the life at home is too comfortable for the prisoners
C. high-technology should be deterrent to crime
D. imprisonment will not achieve much to some offenders
( ) 8. The prospect of the advice is that
A. it will be put into practice immediately
B. it will be declined by the government
C. it will be further carefully looked into
D. it will be confirmed by appointed experts

Thailand's giant pandas have finally produced a baby. Chiang Mai zoo director Thanapath said eight-year-old female Lin Hui gave birth to a baby panda weighing about 200 grams.
The pandas, Lin Hui and Chuang Chuang, the zoo's star residents(居民),had shown no interest in reproducing the traditional way since they both arrived on a 10-year loan from China in 2003. The zoo workers' efforts of artificial insemination(人工受孕)worked. The baby panda will officially belong to China but Thailand will raise it for about 24 months, Thanapath said.
Thanapath said Lin Hui is very protective of her child and won't allow any officials to get close. " She holds the baby very carefully," he said. " She knows how to be a mother even though she has never been one before. " The baby panda appears to be getting along well with its much larger mother.
The birth appeared on the front pages of many Thai newspapers,which carried photos of the baby which is so tiny that it can be held in the hands of a zoo keeper. Other pictures showed the mother Lin Hui gently holding her baby. Thanapath said, "It is of great happiness to see the baby panda. We are so happy that we can breed a panda. Every worker at the zoo is proud and I think every Thai will be proud too."
Breeding pandas is a common practice in China,where dozens are born each year. But it is a rare thing outside of the country. Giant pandas are among the world's most endangered ani?mals. Nearly 1 ,600 pandas are believed to survive in China and about 180 are being raised in zoos worldwide.
( ) 5. It was the time for Lin Hui to give birth to a baby.
A. first B. second C. twelfth D. eighth
( ) 6. After about two years,the baby panda is likely to
A. remain in Thailand with its mother
B. be sent to China as a international gift
C. breed another panda if it wishes
D. be returned to China as contracted
( ) 7. From the fourth paragraph, we can learn that
A. the little panda are getting well with its mother
B. most of the workers at the zoo come from China
C. the baby panda is too big to be held in hands
D. pandas are quite popular in Thailand
( ) 8. What does the word "breed" in the fifth paragraph probably mean?
A.看管 B.撫養(yǎng) C.繁殖 D.引起
