　　在法国的一个监狱里，监狱官员们突发奇想，让囚犯养养小动物。他们发现，这对犯人的改造确有裨益，因为这能让犯人们一改暴躁的脾气，能够静下心来听从指挥教导。这个主意也许今后还将会被其他的一些监狱和机构所采用。

　　Prison officials in France have praised a scheme, that allows inmates to keep pets, for having a positive effect.

　　Organiser Patricia Arnoux says being with the animals has helped some inmates to become more tolerant: "Well I would say that there are three main effects: the animal makes relations much calmer between the prisoners and also between the prisoners and the guards. It really lowers the tension in an area which already stands out in terms of violence, and it brings the person to work on a real job in terms of responsibility and self-confidence".
