it would be a disaster if the wrong persons

　　were given the death penalty (死刑).

　　YB: I support getting rid of the death penalty.Violence should never

　　meet with violence. Abolishing the death penalty could help people to realize the power of forgiveness and love. It could also get officials to focus more on preventing crimes instead of punishing the criminals after they have been committed.

　　YC: The goal of laws and penalties is not to punish criminals but to keep people from committing crimes. Corrective education would be much better than the death penalty,

　　as it could help people understand their crimes and feel sorry from the bottom of their hearts rather than just fear death.

　　NA：We need the death penalty. Those who do great harm to others and affect society badly are supposed to be punished seriously. They should be responsible for their behaviors. Without the death penalty,

　　some people might commit terrible crimes because they would no longer worry about losing their lives even if they take away others' lives though in fact they haven't the right to do so.

　　NB: Laws are different in different countries because of national conditions. Some developed countries that have abolished the death penalty have highly educated people and have few problems with their laws. Compared to them,

　　China still has a long way to go before it can abolish the death penalty.
