雅思寫作犯罪類話題是許多雅思考生的噩夢，很多人就因為碰到了雅思寫作犯罪類話題而不得不繼續“二戰”，可是其實雅思寫作犯罪類話題的出題方向還是非常明確的，基本就局限在青少年犯罪、如何對待犯罪分子等幾個方面。為此小編整理雅思寫作犯罪類素材，希望對大家有所幫助。

　　雅思寫作犯罪類素材每年一般會出三到五次左右，今年目前只出現了一次，想要取得寫作高分的考生需要去準備這個話題。首先，我們來看一下今年的這道題：

　　20130216 Some people think all lawbreakers should be sent to prison, while others believe that there are better alternatives. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

　　這是一道高頻考題，考察的是關于如何對待犯罪分子的問題，是放到監獄，還是延長刑期，或者是接受教育和職業技能培訓呢?請看歷年相似的真題：

　　20080112Some people think the best way of reducing crime is to give longer prison sentences. Others, however, think there are other better ways to reduce crime. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

　　20080918 Putting criminals into prisons is not so effective in dealing with them. Instead, education and job training should be offered to them. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

　　20090917Some people think that all the lawbreakers should be sent into the jail, while others believe that they should also be made to do some work or learn some skills in the community. What is your opinion?

　　20120512Today prison is the most common solution for crime. But some people think that it would be a more effective way to provide them with better education to prevent them from becoming criminals. Do you agree or disagree?

　　下面我們就通過一篇Economist的文章，來看看雅思寫作犯罪類素材常用的詞匯有哪些：

　　1、Less noticed, though, were the suspended sentence and release of two of Mr Li’s juvenile accomplices, even though they pleaded guilty.

　　suspended sentence：緩刑

　　Accomplice：同伙(團伙犯罪中)

　　Guilty:有罪的

　　2、They were urbanites, not migrants, and they could afford to pay sizeable compensation to the victim.

　　Urbanite:城里人

　　Migrant:移民

　　Sizeable compensation:大量的賠償金

　　Victim:受害者

　　3、Migrant and left-behind juveniles are far more likely to be incarcerated than their peers who were brought up in the cities, even though surveys suggest that urban young people commit proportionately about the same number of violent crimes as migrant young. In Shanghai, juveniles without local household registration were given suspended sentences (or probation) in only 15% of cases in 2010; locally registered young folk went free on suspended sentences 63% of the time.

　　left-behind juveniles：留守兒童

　　incarcerate：關禁閉

　　probation：緩刑

　　4、The reasons the migrant young are more likely to be punished severely are closely related to the reasons they get into trouble in the first place: their migrant status and their relative poverty.

　　be punished severely：被嚴厲懲罰

　　5、Their rural home towns lack resources to monitor children on probation, so they end up in prison.

　　end up in prison：以進監獄告終

　　6、And revisions to the national criminal code, in effect this year, specify that juvenile offenders should be treated more leniently than adults.

　　Revision: 修改

　　national criminal code：國家刑法典

　　in effect：生效

　　juvenile offenders：青少年罪犯

　　leniently：寬容地

　　7、Officially the emphasis is on education over punishment.

　　教育比懲罰更重要。

　　本期文章以中國的青少年犯罪為背景，論述了很多法律方面的相關問題，為我們提供了很多地道地法律英語表達，希望大家在遇到類似雅思作文題材時會派上用場。
