    ANSWER.

    A.

    Some people are biologically predisposed to become criminals.

    I agree whit this statement. However, this is not the only factor that conditioned someone to
    become in a criminal. Recent twin studies show persuasive evidence that both genetic and
    environmental factors contribute to antisocial behavior. However, the genetic evidence
    indicates that there is no single gene, or even a small number of genes, that predict an
    increased risk of antisocial behavior. Where there have been some effects, the increase in risk
    associated with antisocial behavior is modest.
    B.

    Crime is a consequence of poverty.

    I agree, but I regard that crime is not only due to poverty, also people can become in a criminal
    due to another reasons like mental diseases. However, I consider that poverty is the main
    reason and below I will explain why. Poverty causes many crimes, as, if a person was not poor
    and had faith in himself, he would not face the thought that he should search another ways to
    get money. Being poor, who could be caused by different reasons, makes a person unhappy,
    incapable to earn enough money, to buy anything he wants or at least something necessary.
    Poverty determines a certain stereotype in a person’s thoughts, and he does not see any
    constructive solving of the problem, as he wants to choose the easiest way of getting money,
    even harming other people.

    C.

    A criminal cannot be reformed.

    I disagree with this statement, because, I think a criminal can be reformed, how? Making social
    reforms in order to give them another opportunity. The main problem that offenders face,
    when it comes to deciding on a career or a life of crime, is that many criminals are excluded
    from the traditional career path due to their criminal record, often from an early age. A new
    system needs to be in place so that a criminal record background check, especially for minor
    offenders, is only relevant to the career path they follow. For example, people caught selling
    drugs cannot work as a pharmacist, people accused of fraud cannot work as an accountant or
    financial. Etc.
    D.

    To reduce crime, we just need more police.

    I strong disagree with this statement; Police are important, but not sufficient, in the crime-
    reduction effort. Policing experts and criminologists say that increasing the size of a police
    force does not ensure a decrease in crime. They said that other issues must be weighed, like
    what roles existing officers were filling and whether adding officers would cause added stress
    in communities where tensions between the police and residents were already high.

    E.

    Some criminals deserve the death penalty.

    Some criminals deserve the death penalty. I agree, in the case of high-risk criminals, the death
    penalty is necessary. Sounds very cruel, but there are several criminals who show no regret
    for their actions. I believe that the death penalty is especially necessary with criminals who
    have committed crimes against children. For me that is unacceptable.
