About 90 per cent of all crimes in Great Britain are dealt (Present Simple Passive) with by Magistrates’ courts which can impose fines or prison sentences of up to six months. Capital punishment was abolished (Past Simple Passive) in England in November 1965. In England there are no minimum sentences, except for murder, which carries a penalty of life imprisonment, but life sentences are rarely more than 14 years, because they can be reduced (Present Simple Passive) for good behavior, often by one third or more. Some murders are committed (Present Simple Passive) by criminals evading arrest, by insane or mentally disturbed people, by cold-blooded sadists completely devoid of all human feelings. The important thing in the prevention of murder is to eliminate the weapons and instruments with which these crimes are committed, (Present Simple Passive) and to stop the dangerous influence of violence in books, films, and other mass media, from which some criminals derive their “inspiration”. Punishment can also be seen (Present Simple Passive) as a reform because it warns other people of what will happen if they tempt to break the law.
1. At what age is best to read "The Adventures of Oliver Twist"? (Read it must be in conscious age. That's when you pay attention to the small details. Of the present situation of injustice and joy, the storm of emotions that is the story. The book teaches us to be attentive to the misfortunes of others, be careful and do not remain indifferent to the misfortunes of others.)2. What is particularly interesting? (The book is interesting in the first place that affects such an important issue - helplessness and vulnerability of children abandoned by fate at the very bottom. And I am personally convinced once again that the people - do not change. If a good man , in which scrapes will not fall, all will remain so.The protagonist - a boy, Oliver, surprising only because he can save the nobility of his soul in such difficult conditions. He was incredibly lucky (so it would be in real life). )3. What are the disadvantages of the book? (A lot of the detailed description and it seems to me unnecessary detail. In the preface to the book critics estimate precisely Dickens attention to detail. I also found it a little boring.)
1. В каком возрасте лучше читать "Приключения Оливера Твиста"? (Читать ее нужно в осознанном возрасте. Именно тогда обращаешь внимание на мелкие детали. Переживаешь моменты несправедливости и радости, ту бурю эмоций, которую вызывает сюжет. Книга учит нас быть внимательным к чужому горю, быть заботливым и не оставаться равнодушным к чужому горю.)2. Чем особо интересная?(Книга интересная в первую очередь тем, что затрагивает такой важный вопрос - беззащитность и уязвимость детей, брошенных судьбой на самое дно. А также лично меня еще раз убеждает в том, что люди - не меняются. Если человек хороший, то в какие передряги не попадет, все-равно останется таким. Главный герой - мальчик Оливер, удивительный уже потому, что умеет сохранить благородство своей души в таких непростых условиях. Ему несказанно везет (было бы так и в жизни). )3. Какие недостатки книги? (Очень много подробных описаний и как мне кажется не нужных мелочей. В предисловии к книге критики оценивают именно внимание Диккенса к мелочам. Мне же это показалось слегка занудным. )
