    Many theories concerning the causes of juvenile delinquency (crimes committed by young people) focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence. Theories【C1】________on the individual suggest that children engage in criminal behavior because they were not【C2】________penalized for previous misdeeds or that they have learned criminal behavior through【C3】________with others.
    Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes in【C4】________to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status, or as a rejection of middle-class values.
    Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from【C5】________families, ignoring the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes. The latter may commit crimes for lack of adequate parental control. All theories, however, are tentative and are【C6】________to criticism.
    Changes in the social structure may indirectly【C7】________juvenile crime rates. For example, changes in the economy that lead to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment in general make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain. The resulting discontent may in turn lead more youths into criminal behavior.
    Families have also【C8】________changes these years. More families consist of one-parent households or two working parents consequently, children are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family structure. This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other identifiable causes of offensive acts include【C9】________or failure in school, the increased availability of drugs and alcohol, and the growing incidence of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act,【C10】________a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.
【C4】
选项
答案D
解析 空格前的介词in提示，此处填入动词的现在分词形式或名词。句中的their failure和a rejection可推知，此处说明的是社会责任的理论所认为的青少年犯罪的原因。in response to"对……作出反应”，可引申为“由于，出于”的意思。符合此处语义。此外，本句与上一句的结构相似，由此推断空格处所要表达的语义应与上一句的because形成复现呼应。in reference to意为“关于，就……而论”不符合本句语境。
