The appeal of the world of work is first its freedom. The child is compelled to go to school: he is【21】of authority. As he grows up, he sees what it is to be free of school and to be able to choose his job and change it if he doesn't like it. The boys and girls,【22】he has long observed, revisit school utterly changed and apparently mature. Suddenly teachers seem as out of date as his parents and the authority of school a ridiculous thing. At the moment the adult world may appear【23】the school world that the desire to enter it cannot be satisfied by exercises in school books. This may not be the【24】but it is a necessary part of growing up, for every man and woman must come sooner or later to the point of saying "Really, I've had enough of being taught; I must【25】". Some young people come to this decision sooner than they ought. Yet in a way this is not a bad frame. of mind to be in【26】leaving school. At work, the young man makes one of the first great acceptances of life——he accepts the discipline of the material or the process he is working with. He sees the point of it and in doing so【27】life. The work process constitutes a reality in some sense superior to that of school, and this is why he so often longs to get to grips with it. Nothing done in school imposes its will in【28】the same way; if the maths master is ill one can get on with something else. But even the boy delivering papers,【29】the driver taking out his bus, discovers that one cannot put it off because there is snow on the ground, or the foreman (工头) is easily annoyed, or he himself【30】that morning.

Crime has its own cycles, a magazine reported some years ago. Police records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the season and crime patterns. The pattern of crime has varied very little over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high during July and August, as do other violent attacks. Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal: It is a weekend crime. It is also a night-time crime: 62 percent of murders are done between 6 p. m. and 6 a. m..
Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, robbing has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p.m. and 2 a.m. on a Saturday night in December, January, or February. The month with least crimes of all is May--except for one strange fact. More dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month of the year.
Obviously our seasonal cycles of knowledge are completely different from our tendencies for crimes. Professor Huntington made extensive studies to discover the seasons when people read serious books, attend scientific meetings and get highest results on examinations. In all cases, he found a separated high and autumn high separated by a summer low.
Possibly, high temperature and high humidity cause our strange and violent summer actions, but police officials are not sure. "There is, of course, no proof of a connection between humidity and murder, "they say," Why murder's high time should come in the summer time we really do not know."
A good title of the passage would be ______.
