Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV — if they ever get home in time. There are similarities, of course, but the cops don't think much of them.
The first difference is that a policeman's real life revolves round the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in dark and rain, running down an alley after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting to scantily-clad（穿衣很少的） ladies or in dramatic confrontations with desperate criminals. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty ─ or not ─ of stupid, petty crimes.
Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he's arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist
attacks — where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police — little effort is spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that, he often has to gather a lot of different evidence. So, as well as being overworked, a detective has to be out at all hours of the day and night interviewing his witnesses and persuading them, usually against their own best interests, to help him.

B) full of danger

28.When murders and terrorist attacks occur the police ______ . A) prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself away B) spend a lot of effort in trying to track down their man C) make a quick arrest in order to keep up their reputation D) usually fail to produce results

A) Generally the detective's work is over once the arrest has been made. B) People are usually willing to give evidence.
C) Policemen and detectives spend little time at the typewriter.
