Hello, everyone! Welcome to Words in Use 2, “A New Way to Treat Prisoners”.

The warden* of a prison today will readily acknowledge* the new trend in prison reform. In an attempt to provide a different brand of justice for society’s delinquents, officials now reject the idea that prison should completely deprive* the convict of freedom. Thus, in some prisons inmates are allowed to leave the prison grounds to visit their spouses* or to pursue* their vocation. Even the more unstable convict who may have committed homicide is not penalized* as harshly* as before. The hope is that if persons emerge* from prison less defiant* than they do now, society will be the beneficiary*.

Okay, our story for lesson 22 is finished. See you in the next part, good luck!
