五、阅读理解
A
The police find most criminals because somebody tells them who the criminals are. They find other criminals by using science and their computers. When there is a bank robbery, the police first look through their computers for the names of bank robbers they know about. Then they go and talk to any of these robbers who are not in jail (监狱). They ask them where they were at the time of the robbery. If any of these people cannot give a good answer, the police will often use science to find out if one of them is the robber.
Many criminals leave something of themselves at the place of the crime like a fingerprint or a hair. Or they take something away on their shoes or clothes, like dirt or animal hair. If they leave behind some of their blood or a hair or a piece of skin, it will have their DNA inside it.
Everyone’s DNA is different in the same way that their fingerprints are different. If a criminal cuts himself during a robbery or leaves a hair, or even a small piece of skin, scientists can find out what his DNA is.

A the criminal has a computer

In some English-speaking countries, people list the most popular names. In the United States, the three most popular names for girls are Emily, Emma and Madison. For boys, they are Michael, Joshua and Mathew. In Britain, parents are likely to name their little girl Grace, Jessica or Ruby and Jack, Thomas or Oliver will go for boys.
Parents select names for their children for some reasons. The names are always meaningful. For example, if parents name their daughter Joy, it means the parents wish their daughter to be joyful and bring joy to others. Ruby is also a girl’s name. It means red precious stones. Pearl has a similar meaning to Ruby. When parents give names like those to their daughter, we can guess they cherish (珍爱) their daughter and wish her to be beautiful in the future.
Next, parents often pick names that can be shortened so that they can speak to their kid in a personal way. For example, William is a popular name in English-speaking countries. William can be shortened to Will, Willy. The same is true of the favorite names for a girl. For example, Elizabeth can be shortened to Beth, Liza and Liz.
Another reason is that parents sometimes name their children after famous persons such as an actor, pop star or sports personality. David becomes a popular name in Britain because David Beckham is a famous football star all over the world.
