Most people enjoy watching a quality film at home or in the theater. The movie industry reaps billions of dollars each year from this popular hobby. But instead of merely following the story line, check out the contributing elements that make a good film superior to others. Before you know, you will be thinking like a film critic! 1) Plot. A solid film offers a story arc. That means that conflict is introduced and increases tensions to a building point at which a cataclysmic event occurs, followed by a return to normal. If the plot does not contain a noticeable arc, the story may not hold viewers’ attention. A dilemma should make the audience care about the outcome. 2) Actors. A good performer will bring his or her role to life. That may mean studying the role ahead of time rather than just learning the lines. It may include visiting sites or people-types associated with the theme of the film, such as a psychiatric hospital or a political campaign office. An actor may need to practice an accent or dialect several weeks before getting it right, or sculpting his or her body to get it in shape for an important part. If the actor appears to fit a role, the audience will appreciate the film even more. 3) Tensions. A conflict-laced story can keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Even love stories need squabbles, threats, or deceit to keep us interested in the plot. The next time you watch a film, see if you can find several types of conflict that help to move the plot forward. Films thrive on it; audiences love it. 4) Cinematography: Photography, scene set-ups, backdrops, and locations add artistic and aesthetic value to a film. A professional photographer and expert camera hands can turn even a mediocre plot into an award-eligible nomination. Study the backdrop of an historic or romantic film especially to get the effect of settings, props, and scenery. 5) Theme music. Classic films get their own musical score, often written and produced by award winning composers. The theme song may introduce and conclude the film, as well as appear sporadically throughout. In other types of movies, a string of songs from a particular time period or music style may grace the acting to add a powerful element of beat and rhythm. Many theme songs have made the top ten music lists over the years. 6) Director and producer. These people, sometimes the same person, are responsible for choosing actors, approving the script, and coordinating all the production elements like camera shots, scene speeches, and action sequences as well as special effects, if any. The producer may be the person who bankrolls the film or lines up investors. Without these persons, there would be no film. Watching a movie can be fun and relaxing. Paying attention to the contributing elements can enrich the viewing experience. Look for some of them in the next film you see; your viewing experience will never be the same! The word "cataclysmic" in the third paragraph means ______.
A. disastrous
B. dramatic
C. inspiring
D. collapsing

Before talking about what forensic and criminal psychology is, we must define criminal behavior first. Criminal behavior suggests a large number and variety of acts. Andrew and Bonta (1998) suggest four broad definitions of criminal behavior and the acts and behaviors that fit within these domains. These four areas are legal criminal behavior or actions that are prohibited by the state and punishable under the law, moral criminal behavior which refers to actions that violate the norms of religion and morality and are believed to be punishable by a supreme spiritual being, social criminal behavior which refers to actions that violate the norms of custom and tradition and are punishable by a community and finally psychological criminal behavior that refers to actions that may be rewarding to the actor but inflict pain or loss on others--it is criminal behavior that is anti-social behavior. A good working definition can be seen as. "antisocial acts that place the actor at risk of becoming the focus of the attention of the criminal and juvenile professionals (Andrews and Bonta, 1998). It is difficult to define criminal behavior as ideas of what is considered immoral, unconventional, illegal or antisocial as it is not stable over time or place. For example, not wearing seatbelt, homosexual activity or spanking a child are all items that have been considered either illegal or legal at one point in time. Delinquency must be distinguished from criminality. Delinquency is defined as behavior that is illegal, immoral or deviant with respect to societal values. Criminality on the other hand is defined as a breaking of existing laws, there is little or no confusion as to what constitutes illegal and legal behaviors, When measuring criminal behavior we are trying in a way to predict future criminal behaviors. We may measure criminal behavior by arrests and charges, however not everyone charged is found guilty. We can also measure the amounts of convictions and incarcerations. We can also measure the amount of self-reported offences and some believe that this may be a more accurate way to measure criminal behavior. This is debatable as there may be reasons that the individuals participating in the anonymous self-report surveys may distrust that their responses are anonymous. As well, individuals may over-or underestimate their crimes for personal reasons. Therefore, when we study criminal behavior we typically study what is known about persons who have been defined as criminals through the criminal justice system. Estimates of actual crime rates are usually obtained from official sources, yet different sources may yield different estimates. Crime reports generally categorize crimes by type of crime and offender characteristics such as age, gender, race and location. The difference between delinquency and criminality is that ______.
A. criminality is about legal criminal behavior while delinquency covers all four types of criminal behavior
B. criminality is antisocial while delinquency is not
C. criminality is stable over time or place while delinquency is not
D. criminality is punishable under law while delinquency is not
