  Graffiti painting is traditionally a daredevil pursuit. Teenagers dodge security guards to put their names on trains and buses. But over the past decade, graffiti has all but disappeared from Britain's cities. Between 2007 and 2012 the number of incidents of graffiti recorded by the British Transport Police fell by 63%. A survey by the Environment Ministry shows that fewer places are blighted by tags than ever. Graffiti are increasingly confined to sanctioned walls, such as the Stockwell ball courts. In time the practice may die out entirely.

  The most obvious reason for the decline in tagging and train-painting is better policing. Numerous CCTV cameras mean it is harder to get away with painting illegally. And punishments are more severe. A generational shift is apparent, too. Fewer teenagers are getting into painting walls. They prefer to play with iPads and video games. Some have gone to art school and want to make money from their paintings. The Internet means that painters can win far more attention by posting pictures online than they can by breaking into a railway yard.

  Taggers and graffiti artists mostly grew up in the 1980s and 1990s. Those men—and almost all are men—are now older and less willing to take risks. Graffiti may eventually disappear. But for now the hobby is almost respectable. The former graffiti artists paint abandoned warehouses at the weekend. It has become something to do on a Sunday afternoon—a slightly healthier alternative to sitting and watching football.

答案

1. 青少年在火车和公共汽车上涂鸦时并不害怕被保安抓住。这个说法是错误的。 根据原文"Teenagers dodge security guards to put their names on trains and buses.",青少年在火车和公共汽车上涂鸦时会躲避保安。因此,他们在涂鸦时是害怕被保安抓住的。所以,这个说法是错误的。 2. 现在在公共场所可以发现更少的涂鸦。这个说法是正确的。 根据原文"A survey by the Environment Ministry shows that fewer places are blighted by tags than ever.",环境部的调查显示,现在受到涂鸦破坏的地方比以往任何时候都少。因此,现在在公共场所可以发现更少的涂鸦。这个说法是正确的。 3. 由于更好的治安,涂鸦减少了。这个说法是正确的。 根据原文"The most obvious reason for the decline in tagging and train-painting is better policing.",涂鸦和火车涂鸦减少的最明显原因是治安更好。因此,由于更好的治安,涂鸦减少了。这个说法是正确的。 4. 有些青少年去艺术学校学习涂鸦墙壁。这个说法是错误的。 根据原文"Some have gone to art school and want to make money from their paintings.",有些青少年去艺术学校是为了从他们的画作中赚钱,而不是学习涂鸦墙壁。因此,这个说法是错误的。 5. 涂鸦者和涂鸦艺术家仍然愿意冒险。这个说法是错误的。 根据原文"Those men—and almost all are men—are now older and less willing to take risks.",涂鸦者和涂鸦艺术家现在年纪较大,不太愿意冒险。因此,这个说法是错误的。
