Ⅴ.阅读理解
Real policemen can hardly tell any similarity between their lives and what they see on TV.
The first difference is that a policeman’s real life is almost around criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what can be used to prove someone guilty and lead him into prison. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer. What’s more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.
Most television crime dramas are about finding the criminal: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding a criminal is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks, only a little effort is spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a policeman really starts to work. He has to prove his case so that he often has to look for a lot of different clues.
A third big difference between the drama policeman and the real one is the unpleasant pressures: first, as members of a police force, they always have to behave completely according to the law. Secondly, as public servants, they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.
If a policeman has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And most policemen feel the separation between themselves and the rest of the world is deepened. Most citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges are in some ways simple-minded. They suggest not punishing the criminals in a very strict way in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, most policemen feel is that nine tenths of their work is re-catching people who should have stayed in prison. This makes them feel rather bad.

C.A policeman’s work is boring.
D.Only a few criminals will reform.
