选项 A、complete
B、commit
C、submit
D、perform
答案B
解析 词汇辨析题。文章开篇首句提到：Most of us think we know the kind of kid who becomes a killer，and most of the time we’re right．(我们中的大多数人认为自己了解那些犯了杀人罪的孩子，而且大多数的时候我们是对的)。从下一句给出的部分可以看出，这里是在谈论男孩子犯杀人罪的比例。commit意为"犯(错误)，干(坏事)"，将该词放回句中，符合上下文语境，表示"男孩子在所有少年杀人犯中所占的比例大约为85%"。complete意为"完成，结束"，complete是指一件工作或事情进行到最后阶段，马上就可见成果，此词用在句中，语义关系不正确；submit意为"呈交，提交"，perform意为"表演，举行"，这两个词与句中各部分没有语义关系，故排除。
