试题分析：这篇短文介绍了旅行的另一种作用，就是帮助改造罪犯，让他们体会到生活的意义，开始新的生活。
小题1:联系下文crime ，可知此处指的是最坏的问题。结合语境及首字母可知填bad的最高级worst，最坏的，作定语。
小题2:结合语境可知犯罪让人们很担心。结合语境可知本句描述的是客观性动作，故用一般现在时态。主语crime表示抽象含义，不可数，故谓语动词用单数，根据首字母可知填worries使……担心。
小题3:结合语境可知此处指的是犯罪的数字一升再升。根据首字母可知填单数名词number，数字，数目。
小题4:联系上下文可知此处指的是他们会重新犯罪。结合语境及首字母可知填副词back，向后。
小题5:结合语境可知此处指的是他相处了一个新的主意。结合语境可知本句描述是过去发生的动作，故用一般过去时态。结合首字母可知填过去式动词thought，思考，认为，想出。
小题6:联系后一句描述，可知此处指的是他们学会了要坚强勇敢，结合语境及首字母可知填形容词brave勇敢的。
小题7:结合语境可知此处指的是很长的行程。根据首字母可知填单数名词journey旅程，行程。
小题8:结合语境可知此处指的是，这是他们最后的机会。根据首字母可知填单数名词chance ，机会。
小题9:联系上下文，可知前后是转折关系，根据首字母可知填转折连词but，但是。
小题10:联系上下文描述，可知此处指的是他们会再次进入监狱。结合语境及首字母，可知填副词again，又一次，再。
点评：首字母一直是英语考试中的难点，得分率比较低。解答此类题型的方法一般就是根据文章前后句子之间意思推断出词义，并结合首字母推断出所缺单词，然后根据该单词在句子中的句子成分，所起作用，确定单词词形，进行适当词形变化。
