"Poverty", wrote Aristotle, "is the parent of crime." But was he right? Certainly, poverty and crime are【C1】______. And the idea that a lack of income might drive someone to【C2】______sounds plausible. But research by Amir Sariaslan casts【C3】______on the chain of causation—at least as far as violent crime and the misuse of【C4】______are concerned.
Sariaslan consulted the【C5】______collected by Scandinavian governments which contained information about people’s annual family incomes and criminal【C6】______.
In Sweden the age of criminal responsibility is 15, so Sariaslan【C7】______his subjects from the dates of their 15th birthdays【C8】______, for an average of three-and-a-half years.
When he looked at families which had started poor and got richer, the younger children—those born into relative【C9】______—were just as likely to misbehave as the elder children. Family income was, in itself not the【C10】______factor.
That suggests two【C11】______. One is that a family’s culture, once established, is "【C12】______ "—that you can take the kid out of the neighborhood, 【C13】______not the neighborhood out of the kid.【C14】______children’s inclination to imitate elder brothers or sisters whom they admire, that sounds【C15】______plausible. The other is that genes which make them susceptible to criminal behavior are common at the【C16】______of society, perhaps because the lack of impulse-control also tends to reduce someone’s earning capacity.
Neither of these conclusions is likely to be welcome to【C17】______reformers. They suggest that merely【C18】______people’s incomes will not by itself address questions of bad behavior.
Such conclusions will need to be【C19】______by others. If they are confirmed, the fact that they are【C20】______will be no excuse for ignoring them.
【C16】
选项
A、top
B、heart
C、core
D、bottom
答案
D
解析
此处需要一个名词构成词组表示犯罪基因普遍存在的阶层。在because引导的原因状语从句中提及了“也许正是无法控制冲动降低了他们赚钱的能力”,据此可推断出此处提及的是收入低的社会阶层。因此选D项,at the bottom of society意为“下层社会”。
