     Are you forty years old and fat? Do you wear fine clothes? Do you look rich if so, be careful? There is a pickpocket looking for you .World travelers，away from home and usually carrying much money，are often trou-bled by pickpockets in foreign countries，but they should remember that there are pickpockets in their own country，too．

       A typical pickpocket is under forty years of age，usually a male．He has nimble fingers and has trained himself in running．Generally，he carries a newspaper or magazine in his hand．He may appear fairly clever and pretend to be calm．He has learned his job from another pickpocket，and he repays his“teacher”by giving him a percentage of the money or things which he steals．The skilled pickpocket always operates in crowded places．Very well dressed men and slightly drunken men are the favorite objects of the pickpocket．

      An average-sized department store hires about six or seven full-time  detectives. These men and women are constantly looking for pickpockets quickly．But a g-ood pickpocket knows these things and is very careful．He is especially  busy on buses，trains and subways b-etween 11：00 am and 3:00 pm when there are many shoppers with much money to spend．He carefully re-members the payday and bonus times of companies．

Pickpocketing and stealing from a shop together re-present about 75％ of daytime petty crimes in America．The sentence for these crimes is usually from three to five years in prison．After finishing their sentence，pick-pockets and thieves seldom reform; they usually adva-nce to more serious crimes．

      59． From the first paragraph we know that_____．

       A. only those persons who are forty years old and fat are the aims of the pickpocket

       B. only those persons who wear fine clothes look rich

       C． world travelers are only troubled in foreign countries

       D． those who look rich and those who travel abroad should pay more attention to pickpockets
