Many theories regarding the causes of juvenile delinquency(crimes committed by young people)focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence.Theorieson the individual suggest that childrencriminal behavior before they were not sufficientlyfor previous misbehaviors or that they have learned criminal behavior through interaction with others.Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes into 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 fromfamilies,the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes.The latter may commit crimes for lack of adequate control from parents.All,however,are uncertain or unimproved and are of course challenged with criticism.
Changes in the social structure may indirectlyjuvenile crime rates.For example,changes in the economy thatto fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain.This results inamong youths and may inlead more youths into criminal behavior.
Families have also experiencedthese years.More families consist of one parent households or two working parents;children are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family.This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates.Other noticeableof offensive acts includeexperience or failure in school,theavailability of drugs and alcohol,and the growing phenomenon of child abuse and child neglect.All these conditions tend to increase theof a child committing a criminal act,a direct cause and effect relationship has not yet been established.

Apes and human beings share a lot in common when it comes to behavior. The evidence taken from the observation of the behavior of apes and children suggests that there are three causes for the outbreak of fighting and the exhibition of       by individuals.
One of the most common causes of fighting among both children and apes was over the ___ ___ of external objects. The argument over the ownership of any     object---food, clothes, toys, females, and the affection of others--- was sufficient reason to __ ___ force. In a case of monkeys’ disagreement over females,thirty females were killed. Two points are of particular interest to notice about these fights for possession.
In the first place, the fights are often carried to such an extreme that they end in the __ __ destruction of the objects of common desire. Toys are torn to pieces and females are killed.
In the second place it is observable, that __ __ occurs when an object is desired by only one person or by someone else. There were many cases where toys and other objects which had been      as useless were __ __ defended by their owners when they became the object of some other child’s desire.
Another cause of aggression is the tendency for children and apes are greatly to __ __ the invading of a stranger into their group. A new child in the class may be laughed at,       and disliked. A new monkey may be bitten to death. It is interesting to note that anger occurs when a stranger comes from the __   __ species. Monkeys do not mind being _ __ by a goat or a rat. Children do not object when animals are introduced to the group. As a matter of fact, such newcomers are often __ _ . But when monkeys meet a new monkey or children a strange child, aggression often occurs. This strongly suggests that the reason for the aggression is fundamentally possessiveness. The competition of the newcomers is feared. The present members of the group feel that there will be more       for the food or the       of the adults.
Finally, another common     of fighting among children is a frustration or failure in their own ___ __ .A child will be stopped either by __ __ causes such as bad weather or illness from doing something he wishes to do, for example, sail his boat or ride the bicycle. Sometimes the activity may be __ _ because of the opposition of some adult. The child may also frustrate itself by __ ___, through lack of skill or strength, to complete successfully some desired activity. Such a child will then in the ordinary sense become “naughty”. He will be in a bad or unfriendly temper.

In modern society loneliness can be seen as a social phenomenon and people can experience loneliness for many reasons. It is a very common,        normally temporary, consequence of a breakup, divorce, or loss of any important          relationship. In these cases, loneliness may            both from the loss of a specific person or from dropping            of social circles. The loss of a significant person in one's life will           lead to a grief response; in this situation, one might feel lonely, even while in the          of others.
There are many different ways used to treat loneliness. The first step that most doctors          to patients is treatment. Short term treatment typically        over a period of ten to twenty weeks. During treatment, emphasis is put           understanding the cause of the problem, thoroughly changing the        thoughts, feelings, and attitudes resulting from the problem, and exploring ways to help the patient feel          . Some doctors also recommend group treatment a means to connect with other sufferers and establish a support system.
      treatment is animal-assisted treatment. Studies and surveys indicate that the          of animal companions such as dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs can          feelings of loneliness or depression among some sufferers.         the companionship the animal itself provides there may also be increased opportunities for            with other pet owners. Results of a study also suggest that            improper socialcognition (认知) offers the best chance of reducing loneliness.
     , loneliness can sometimes play an important role in the creative process. In some people, temporary or prolonged loneliness can lead to remarkable artistic and creative expression, for example, as was the             with poet Emily Dickinson, and many musicians. This is not to imply that loneliness itself ensures this creativity,         , it may have an influence on the subject matter of the artist and more likely be present in individuals engaged in creative activities.

Today the scientific community is in almost total agreement that the earth’s climate is changing and that this represents a huge threat to the planet and to us. According to a survey, with only 69% accepting the earth is warming— only 1 in 4 Americans see global warming as a major threat, public opinion ________ the scientific conclusion.
Climate scientists and campaigners have long debated how to better communicate the message to nonexperts so that climate science can be ________ into action. According to Christopher Rapley, the usual tactic(策略) of climate experts to provide the public with information isn’t________ because “it does not address key potential causes.” We are all exposed to the evidence of climate change on an almost a daily basis. The information is almost ___________.
Then what’s wrong? _______our brains.
Daniel Gilbert mentioned our brains’ failure to accurately notice gradual change. Robert
Gifford also _________the point about our brains’ difficulty in grasping climate change because of limited cognition and social ______  with other people (“Why should we change if X won’t?”) “ A more powerful barrier is the ___________ of perceived (感知的)behavioral control; ‘I’ m only one person; what can I do ?’ is certainly a big one. For many, the first challenge will be in recognizing barriers _____ they can overcome them”
But for those of us who understand that climate change is a problem yet make little effort
to cut the number of overseas trips we make or the amount of meat we consume, neither the uncaring attitude nor denial really explains the _________between our actions and beliefs. Lertzman has come to the conclusion that the conflict between ________  both the planet and our way of life is too painful to bear. “When we don’t ________ the pain of that, that’s when we get ______and can’t move forward.” Lertzman refers to this ________ as “environmental melancholia(忧郁症),” and points out that there’s a lot to be said for providing a means______ acceptable to talk about.”
Rosemary Randall suggests that climate change is such a(n) __________ subject that it “can raise fears and anxieties that people feel have no_________ in polite conversation.”
Lertzman says the community has been slow to realize  the value of psychology. Gifford says otherwise,________—“ climate change, and not mental health, is the biggest psychological problem”
Despite the pain, shame, difficulty in fully addressing climate change, both Lertzman and Gifford are still _______ about our ability to face up to the challenge. “There can’t be anything about the human mind that stops us struggling with these issues , given that so many people ______ are — maybe that’s what we should be focusing on instead.” says Lertzman.

Maybe there is another way out. We need to repair our possessions         throwing them away. We also need to rethink our attitudes about          . Repairing our possessions and changing our spending habits may be the best way to reduce the amount of rubbish and take care of our environment.
