Debate: Can stricter gun control laws decrease the rate of crimes involving guns?
Yes, because with fewer weapons, you get fewer crimes.
Take a look at the crime rates of countries like the United Kingdom. Their crime rate is very low, compared to ours here in the United States. Just by simply putting stricter laws in place on who can own them, it will greatly reduce the crimes involving guns.

Past Practice
There was an assault weapon(攻击性武器) ban back in 1994 under Bill Clinton. Shootings and crime did not go down for the 10 years when this law was in effect. Criminals do not follow rules. The law only affects those who try to obey the law to arm them to protect themselves.

Wake up, you Americans!
It's hardly surprising that America has one of the highest gun related murder rates of all countries! And of course guns don't kill people, but the more people own guns, the easier it is to get access to one, the higher the chance of people using it to kill somebody is!
In Germany, we have really strict gun laws and only a few people own guns, and obviously we don't need them. There's no reason that a normal citizen would need a gun! Guns are made for one reason only: killing.

More gun control laws, fewer shootings
On the same day as the Sandy Hook tragedy, a man in China entered a primary school with a knife and injured 22 students on December, 14. However, nobody was killed. Compare that to the 26 students and teachers killed at Sandy Hook in Connecticut with a powerful gun. We must learn something from this tragedy.

Gun violence goes up with more gun control
Criminals will take advantage of the situation. They will do whatever they want and take whatever they want and kill whoever gets in their way. They will get guns illegally. Crime rates go up as a result of more gun control, because criminals know you don't have one, and they will kill you as they like. There is no point in banning guns!

答案
小题1:D
小题2:A
小题3:A
小题4:C
小题5:B 解析
文章主要讲的是围绕“更严厉的枪支控制能否减少枪支犯罪率”展开的辩论。大多数都赞成对枪支下禁令，减少人们能够拥有枪支的数量。也有少数认为，减少枪支不会减少犯罪率，相反还会导致犯罪率的上升。
小题1:根据“Yes, because with fewer weapons, you get fewer crimes. ...Take a look at the crime rates of countries like the United Kingdom. Their crime rate is very low”可知，拥有武器的人越少，枪支犯罪就越少，英国就是这样的一个例子。由此可推断，英国对枪支的限制很严格，故选D。
小题2:根据“Shootings and crime did not go down for the 10 years when this law was in effect. Criminals do not follow rules.”可知，枪支犯罪并未下降，罪犯并不会遵守法律法规，由此可见，jb1988不赞成对枪支进行限制，故选A。
小题3:根据“And of course guns don't kill people, but the more people own guns, the easier it is to get access to one, the higher the chance of people using it to kill somebody is!”可知，人们拥有的枪支越多，得到枪支就会变得更容易，不法之徒使用枪支进行犯罪的可能性就越大，故选A。
小题4:根据“On the same day as the Sandy Hook tragedy, ...on December, 14 ...killed at Sandy Hook in Connecticut”可知，the Sandy Hook tragedy12月14号发生在Connecticut，故选C。
小题5:根据“Crime rates go up as a result of more gun control, ...There is no point in banning guns!”可知，海报eebnflow并不赞成对枪支下禁令，故选B。 考点
据考高分专家说，试题“Debate: Can stricter.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。
日常生活类阅读
日常生活类阅读的概念：
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
