The police find most criminals(罪犯)because somebody tells them who the criminals are.They find other criminals by using science and their computers.When there is a bank robbery(抢劫),the police first look through their computers for the names of the bank robbers that they know about.Then they go and talk to any of these robbers who are not in prison(监狱).They ask them where they were when the robbery happened.If any of these people cannot give a good answer,the police will often use science to find out if one of them is the robber.
Many criminals leave something of themselves at the places of the crimes like a fingerprint or a hair.Or they take something away on their shoes or clothes,like dirt or animal hair.If they leave behind some of their blood or their hair or a piece of skin,it will have their DNA inside it.
Everyone’s DNA is different and their fingerprints are also different.So,if a criminal cuts himself during a robbery or leaves his hair,or even a small piece of skin,scientists can find out what his DNA is.The police can then ask the person they think is the robber to give them his hair or some blood and see if it has the same DNA.Many criminals are in prison today because of this kind of evidences.

Many kids do housework such as doing the dishes,making the bed,and folding the clothes.In exchange,they get some money or other computer time.
Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics,especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money.Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs,we should pay kids for everyday housework.
But some people don't think kids should get rewards(报酬) for doing housework.Susie Walton,an expert,believe that by rewarding kids,parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return."Running any kind of housework is a team effort,"Walton said."A home is a living space for everyone in the family.It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house,and families decide how they want their home to look,and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want."
Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework,and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money.There are also apps(程序) that gives kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兑现) either online or in the real world."Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,"says Chris Bergman."And kids need rewards to help encourage them."
