There are increasingly fraught relationships that adults are having with children—in all walks of life, from the police and politicians, within the public sector and within communities themselves. The fear of young people has changed the way society is policed, how pupils are treated in schools and how insecure adults relate to children on their estates. Rather than children and young people becoming more violent and anti-social, it is adults who have changed, having fewer relationships with young people and becoming less confident in their dealings with them.
We must explore the role that crime and safety initiatives have on the outlook of the public. The attempt by government, council departments, the police and many others to reduce the fear within communities by developing safety initiatives is having the opposite effect, resulting in the institutionalization of this fear. Curfews have increased adults’ fear of young people and reduced the amount of time young children are allowed out to play. They have raised the level of insecurity amongst parents about the safety of their children and ultimately reduced the contact between generations within this community. It is not far from the truth to say that "youth" no longer exists—if by youth we mean the freedom loving rebelliousness. The outcome of this process is breeding a generation of young people who are—if anything different--more fragile and fearful than their grandparents.
Finally, as well as exploring the fear of young people, we must look at the insecurity that parents have for their children. There has been a reduction in play, and specifically in "free play", and the effect of this more regulated environment on children’s lives is yet to be determined and not something we can continually ignore in our rush to protect society from children.
The word "institutionalization" in the second paragraph mainly means that______.
选项
A、it increases the adults’ fear of children
B、it makes the adults pay more attention to children’s freedom
C、it resulted in curfews
D、it cancelled children’s "free play" in communities and public places
答案
A
解析
从文中第2段开始可以看出,政府、市政各部门等很多机构本来试图通过推出安全政策措施减少社区内部的恐惧,结果反而造成了这种恐惧的制度化,后面接着举例说“宵禁”增加了成年人对年轻人的恐惧,可以被看做是其一种结果,而B项和C项本文没有直接提及,最后一段可以看出“自由玩耍”只是减少了,并没有取消,所以应该选A项。
