雅思大作文:导致犯罪的根源

Some people think most crimes are the result of circumstances like poverty and other social problems. Others believe that they are caused by people who are bad in nature.

Discuss both views and give your opinion.

There are numerous reasons contributing to crimes. Some people hold the view that most crimes are the result of poverty and other social problems, while others assume that those who are innately bad cause crimes. From my perspective, I would go along with the former opinion.

Those who blame crimes on social problems have their reasons. For many criminals, crimes originate from lack of proper education from both parents and schools. If they get guidance from their parents and receive education about law, the possibility of violating laws will probably decrease. In addition, it is reported in news that many people commit crimes due to poverty. These people have few options in life and may long for things that they cannot afford. They do not have essential skills to make money and purchase these items, so they take a short cut and then crimes like theft happen.

However, others think oppositely. It is reported in some famous periodicals that some

psychological characteristics related to crimes can be inherited and people can be influenced by these factors since childhood. But I cannot agree with the opinion. I believe human nature makes little sense in judging whether people can commit crimes or not and people’s behavior is mostly influenced by their surroundings, including their economic conditions, education background and social relationships.

To conclude, it is social problems rather than genes that lead to most crimes, human beings might have some characteristics that could do harm to the society, but these can be tamed early with education.
