30、许多侵略者通过声称自己是被欺凌的来给自己的欺凌行为辩护。再结合段末的“victims of bullying”可知，此处指曾经的受害者往往会变成施暴者。故选A项。3选D上文中提到历史中有很多这样的人，所以下面就拿希特勒为例来说明。故选D项(例如，有人称希特勒在小的时候就是欺凌行为的受害者)。4选B上一句提到当犯罪发生在人多的地方时，心理学家们对周围人群的冷漠表示困惑。B项中的them应是指代上一句中的Psychologists, the coldness与上一句中的the coldness相照应。故选B项(许多心理学家认为，欺凌是冷漠的原因之一)。5选F根据上一句中出现的not only可知，此处应该有but also意思的连接。F项中的also给出提示，不仅施暴者和受害者对暴力不再敏感，而且施暴者和受害者的朋友和同学也都认为暴力是很正常的事情。两句正好连接，故选F项。
