  巴西监狱读一本书减四天刑

 

  巴西监狱系统近期推出一项减刑新规,读一本书减四天刑。这项新规将在巴西四所联邦监狱实行,服刑人员如果能在一年内读完12本文学、哲学、科学或者经典类著作,便可获得48天的减刑。据新规规定,服刑人员读一本书的时限为四周,读完之后还需提交一份“语言通顺、文法正确、字迹清晰”的论文。然后由一个特别评估小组来决定哪些服刑人员能够加入“读书救赎”计划。

 

  Brazil will offer inmates in its crowded federal penitentiary system a novel way to shorten their sentences: four days less for every book they read.

 

  Inmates in four federal prisons holding some of Brazil's most notorious criminals will be able to read up to 12 works of literature, philosophy, science or classics to trim a maximum 48 days off their sentence each year, the government announced.

 

  Prisoners will have up to four weeks to read each book and write an essay which must "make correct use of paragraphs, be free of corrections, use margins and legible joined-up writing," said the notice published on Monday in the official gazette.

 

  A special panel will decide which inmates are eligible to participate in the program dubbed "Redemption through Reading".

 

  "A person can leave prison more enlightened and with an enlarged vision of the world," said Sao Paulo lawyer Andre Kehdi, who heads a book donation project for prisons.

 

  "Without doubt they will leave a better person," he said.

 

  上面是一篇托福课外阅读材料,大家要认真阅读,加强了解和理解,为以后的考试做好准备。最后,提醒大家,阅读要注重全局观念,抓住重点转折点,相信大家都能拿到。
