| Thousands of Hong Kong youngsters cost supermarkets tens of thousands ^ dollars a year by shoplifting. New figures show that almost half of those were arrested for shoplifting last year were age between seven and twenty. Police fear the total number of young criminals could be high, as a lot of many those caught by shopkeepers are simply thrown out of shops or turned over to parents because they are ^ young to be prosecuted. Some youngsters wear in their school uniforms in supermarkets and stuff stolen good into schoolbags. Psychologist Ng Kee-on said most of ^ shoplifters stole because they were greedy. "In ^ modern society like ours, people see many good things. They see them in window displays, advertisements, the medium and they compare with other people," he said. "Many of them are not caught on their first or second attempt so they carry on stealing continuously." Official statistics show that more than 40 per cent ^ those arrested and charged with shoplifting last year were under the age of 20. A spokewoman for the Japanese department store Seibu said about 75 per cent of their shoplifting cases were involved children. | a Ö b of c were d aged 74. higher 75. many 76. too 77. in 78. goods 79. of / the 80. a 81.
