The Loss of Innocence

Innocence is such a precious gift.It’s explained as freedom from guilt or wrong doing.Just imagine never having to worry about anything and having a guilt free mind.Some people wish to save this kind of innocence from being lost from childhood to adulthood.

What would the world be like if innocence were never lost?One way it would benefit humanity is the lack of hatred (仇恨)among the world.During youth,there may be an occasional argument,even a little physical fight,but nothing like firing a handgun at a fellow human being.And children are blind towards the racial differences of others.A kid will hang out with any other kid.It is the lack of innocence and the ignorance we learn from adults that influence children otherwise.Another benefit is the constant desire for fun and adventure.With very little if any time at all for fun,the adventurous mind is lost in time with the responsibilities placed upon adults.If innocence were kept alive,these ambitions would never depart from our lives.

However,other people actually hate the idea of innocence lasting forever.They feel that the lack of organization and mental power of those with innocence would cause extremely destructive consequences to society in general.A large number of individuals would never have the urge to learn,work,and act upon the necessary needs for humanity to survive.Without a proper education which is usually provided by those who no longer live in a world of innocence,people would not have the desire to succeed,get a good job in life,or provide income for their families,which would hurt the lives of children.

The lack of a good education and career would also harm the economy.As long as innocence is kept alive,no one would be terribly angered at the lack of effort people put out in the workplace,resulting in a strong decline in production and quality of needed goods.

Maybe it is wrong in wanting to save innocence.It sure is a nice thought,though.Perhaps innocence was meant to be lost.It was god’s will to make things the way they are,and there is a good purpose for everything.All that remains to be said about innocence is to enjoy it while it lasts.

1.The author believes that the loss of innocence in adulthood should be _______.

A.a(chǎn)voided

B.condemned

C.a(chǎn)ccepted

D.inspired

2.Lifelong innocence would be beneficial to society in that _______.

The parents of a troubled teen may feel unsure as to whom to turn to in order to find help for their child. They may feel as if they have exhausted all of their options, and sometimes they are on the verge of giving up. But there is hope. Schools for troubled teens offer discipline and in some cases, drug treatment programs that can provide important life skills, and more importantly, a fresh start.

The following is a list of the most effective types of schools for troubled teens. Not every facility is a match for every child, but by knowing the differences between them, parents can make a better educated decision about where to send their teenager.

Boarding Schools

When a child is unable to deal with the relative freedom of a standard school day, boarding schools might be a good choice. At boarding schools, the child lives in a dorm setting, where almost every minute of the day is scheduled by school administrators.

Treatment Centers

When a teenager has an addiction to drugs or alcohol, a residential center that specializes in young people is an outstanding way to help them break the cycle of addiction. Treatment centers feature individual and group counseling to help identify the root causes of the drug problem and help develop the life skills needed to stay clean when the program is over.

Wilderness Programs

Designed to help improve the discipline and self-reliance of the child, wilderness programs send kids back to nature. By placing them in a foreign and sometimes uncomfortable setting, wilderness programs hope to improve children’s behavior. Programs generally include hikes, exercise programs and team building exercises.

Boot Camps

Boot camps are the most extreme style of school for troubled teens. These facilities are modeled after actual military boot camps, where the individual must get into shape, work as part of a team, and follow a long, hard set of rules and regulations. However, boot camps might not be the best choice for a teen with a drug addiction.

1.Who would be the intended readers of the passage?

A. Teachers. B. Parents.

C. Students. D. Experts.

2.As the author suggests, schools for troubled teens______.

A. can be a good choice for some desperate parents

B. can completely help and change troubled teens

C. are becoming popular with teens in trouble

D. care more about discipline than life skills

3.According to the passage, boarding schools_____.

A. provide children with more freedom

B. have their students’ time managed carefully

C. pay much attention to team building exercises

D. can make children feel safer
