6. Translate the following text into English:
В современном мире широко дискутируется вопрос о правах заключенных. Причем речь идет не о базовых правах для этой категории людей, а о праве на вполне цивилизованную жизнь в условиях заключения. Например, в Великобритании при многих тюрьмах построены гимнастические залы, открыты библиотеки. Осужденные в английских тюрьмах занимаются физическим трудом, обучаются определенным видам ремесел, например, пошиву одежды, строительству зданий, столярному ремеслу, работе в прачечных, сельскохозяйственному труду, садоводству.
Осужденные в Великобритании могут повысить свой образовательный уровень. Так для несовершеннолетних правонарушителей, еще не закончивших школу, 15 часов в неделю обязательны. Совершеннолетние преступники могут получать образование на добровольной основе. Заключенным даже дается возможность подготовиться к экзаменам в Открытый университет (заочная система образования).
Цель этих программ – помочь осужденному найти работу, когда он будет отпущен на свободу. Подобное отношение к человеку, преступившему закон, очень важно в свете реабилитации личности преступника (что означает приспособление его к условиям жизни в обществе среди законопослушных граждан). Одна из причин существования рецидивизма заключается в том, что, выйдя на свободу, человек сталкивается с враждебным отношением общества. Приобретение навыков, которые пригодятся человеку, отбывшему тюремное заключение, при выходе на свободу снижает вероятность того, что он станет снова на преступный путь.56
