Dear Carrie,     

Your brother sounds like a very selfish person. But I want to know what causes him to act this way. Since he seems to be doing this on purpose, maybe the only way to do with the problem is to try to find the cause.

I think your brother is probably hurting in some way. Perhaps he feels unsafe because he is not a full part of the family. He could be jealous (嫉妒) of your mother's love for the rest of you over him.

It is wrong to fight anger with anger though you think it is a need to help your mother. I suggest you try to help your brother by treating him with more care and love. It must be hard for him to grow up in a family where his sisters had their real mother but he didn't. Try to let him know that you care about him. Over time he may come to know how lucky he is and start to treat you all with the same kindness that you give him.

1. From the passage we may know that ____.

A. there are two mothers in the family

B. the mother is the brother's stepmother (继母)

C. the family is not a full family

D. the brother has three sisters in the family

2. The writer suggests that Carrie ____.

A. treat her brother with more love and care

B. find her mother with more fights

C. find the cause for her brother's habit

D. fight against her brother with anger

3. The writer thinks Carrie's brother ____.

A. should know Carrie treats him with kindness

B. should be treated more kindly

C. is very lucky to live in such a family

D. is a bad young man

4. In Carrie's letter she must have said that ____.

A. she often punished her brother

B. she often gave her brother love

C. she often felt sad and angry in the family

D. her mother wasn't a good mother

There are many rights to make sure that people will be treated fairly when they are suspected or accused of a crime. Sometimes these rights are called "due process of law". In using these rights, a person should have the help of a lawyer.

You have a right to protect against unreasonable searches and seizures. The police generally may not search you or your home, or take things you own, without a "warrant". A warrant is a paper which states, very exactly , the place to be searched and the things to be taken. Sometimes, however, the police will not need a warrant to search you or your property. If an officer sees you committing a crime, or if he has a good reason to believe you have committed a serious crime, he may arrest you and search you and the area right around you without a warrant.

If you invite a police without a warrant to come into your house and he finds proof of crime, the evidence may be used against you in court. If you do not want an officer to search you or your home and he does not have a warrant, tell him that you do not give him the right to search. However, if the officer will not listen, do not try to stop him. It is dangerous to resist and it may be illegal to do so. Any evidence which a policeman gets during an unlawful search and seizure cannot be used against you.

Police officers must act reasonably and fairly at all times. They should use physical force only when it is needed to arrest someone to enforce a law. They may not use physical violence to "teach someone a lesson".

   According to the passage, a "warrant" is______.

A. an identification card               B. an access card

C. an official written order                D. a special license

   In which case can the policeman use the evidence he gets against you in court?

A. He makes an unreasonable search of your home and gets the evidence.

B. He is allowed to search your home with no warrant and finds proof of crime.

C. He gets the information you do not want to give him by using physical force.

D. He obtains the information from you when you are alone with him.

The police can use physical force only when____.

A. they want to teach the habitual thief a lesson

B. they catch the criminal on the spot

C. the suspect talks back

D. the criminal resists arrest

The passage centers around____.

A. the rights of citizens                   B. the importance of warrants

C. the duty of the police                   D. criminal cases
