What seemed impossible is possible nowadays. One spring afternoon last year a group of 1 attacked a 15-year-old girl in the Berlin district of Köpenick. They hit her in the face and pushed her to the ground. When the victim 2 to hand over her money, some of them held her down and 3 her arms with a lighted cigarette. The 4 were not a gang of boys, but of 13- to 15-year-old girls.
While men are still responsible for the 5 of crimes in Germany, 6 violence is on the rise. Young girls and women of all 7 groups are becoming more violent, and that has been a 8 trend for several years. Last year in Berlin, the 9 of female suspects of violent crime under the age of 21 increased by almost 8%, while that of male suspects 10 slightly. Violent crimes like 11 and serious bodily harm have even shot up by 18% and 25% among young women.
Why are 12 women becoming more violent? Gender （性別） 13 may have something to do with it. Today's females are drinking and smoking more, and raising all sorts of 14 things. Girls and young women are generally less held back in adopting male forms of behavior. 15 , the same goes for the 16 of violence. The members of all-female gangs tend to be especially 17 . When particularly humiliating methods like burning or undressing are involved, the 18 will usually be girls. It seems to be all about showing the 19 , “Hey, we can do 20 than you.”

I found the imagination of becoming a grandmother somewhat discouraging. I wasyounger than I thought a grandmother should be when I got the news that I was goingto become one myself. I admit, it was not a role that I was emotionally ready toaccept. I had been a young mother, and had certainly hoped my daughter would notface that same challenge. I remarried when she was a teenager, and then had two morec
hildren. On getting the news that she was expecting, I remember thinking “What do Iknow about being a grandmother? —I haven’t even finished raising my own kids yet!”I don’t like to be unprepared, so I read a few books about grandparenting. That gaveme a little help, but I was still uncertain. I thought about other grandmothers I knew,and got a few ideas I liked and a few more that I didn't. But I couldn't quite figure outwhat kind of grandmother I wanted to be. Then I thought about my own grandmother,Granny, as she’s known by most people, and I knew I had the answer.
I didn’t realize it until that moment, but my own grandmother 
was the examplefor the kind of grandmother I wanted to be. I am fortunate that I got to spend a lot oftime with my grandparents when I was a little kid. Here's what I learned from myGranny：
Grandmothers always have a cookie jar. For my entire life, Granny always had acookie jar full of cookies. When I was a little tiny girl, just at eye level with thecounter, Granny would get the cookie jar down for me. When I was a little older Ilearned how to pull the chair over so I could reach. As I got taller, if I really stretched,I could reach the cookie jar with my finger tips and move it close enough to get it downoff the counter to find out what kind of treat was inside. Always the first thing I didwhen I went to Granny 's house was check the cookie jarand there were alwayscookies in it. Many years later, I’ll drive my own children to Granny’s house and thefirst thing Pd do is get us all a cookie.
So grandmothers must have a cookie jar and on my granddaughte’ s firs
tChristmas, my daughter bought me my own cookie jar. She said when they came to seeme, her daughter would find the treat the way she did and I did.
