Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
Since the dawn of time, people have found ways to communicate with one another Smoke signals and tribal drums were some of the earliest forms of communication Letters, carried by birds or by humans on foot or on horseback, made it possible for people to communicate larger amounts of information between two places The telegram and telephone set the stage for more modern means of communication With the invention of the cellular phone, communication itself has become mobile
For you, a cell phone is probably just a device that you and your friends use to keep in touch with family and friends, take pictures, play games, or send text message The definition of a cell phone is more specific: it is a hand- held wireless communication device that sends and receives signals by way of small special areas called cells
Walkie - talkies, telephones and cell phones are duplex communication devices: They make it possible for
two people to talk to each other Cell phones and walkie- talkies are different from regular phones because they can be used in many different locations A walkie- talkie is sometimes called a half- duplex communication device because only one person can talk at a time A cell phone is a full- duplex device because it uses both frequencies at the same time A walkie-talkie has only one channel A cell phone has more than a thousand channels A walkie- talkie can transmit and receive signals across a distance of about a mile A cell phone can transmit and receive signals over hundreds of miles
In 1973, an electronic company called Motorola hired Martin Cooper to work on wireless communication Motorola and Bell Laboratories (now AT& T) were in a race to invent the first portable communication device Martin Cooper won the race and became the inventor of the cell phone On April 3, 1973, Cooper made the first cell phone call to his opponent at AT& T while walking down the streets of New York city
People on the sidewalks gazed at cooper in amazement Cooper's phone was called A Motorola Dyna-
Tac It weighed a whopping 2.5 pounds ( as compared to today's cell phones that weigh as little as 3 or 4 ounces)
After the invention of his cell phone, Cooper began thinking of ways to make the cell phone available to the general public After a decade, Motorola introduced the first cell phone for commercial use The early cell phone and its service were both expensive The cell phone itself cost about $ 3, 500 In 1977, AT & T
constructed a cell phone system and tried it out in Chicago with over 2, 000 customers In 1981, a second

A recent survey of crime statistics shows that we are all more likely to be burgled now than 20 years ago and the police advise everyone to take a few simple precautions to protect their homes
The first fact is that burglars and other intruders prefer easy opportunities, like a house which is very obviously empty This is much less of a challenge than an occupied house, and one which is well-protected A burglar will wonder if it is worth the bother
There are some general tips on how to avoid your home becoming another crime statistic Avoid leaving signs that your house is empty When you have to go out, leave at least one light on as well as a radio or television, and do not leave any curtains wide open The sight of your latest music centre or computer is enough to tempt any burglar
Never leave a spare key in a convenient hiding place The first place a burglar will look is under the doormat or in a flower pot and even somewhere more 'imaginative' could soon be uncovered by the intruder It is much safer to leave a key with a neighbor you can trust But if your house is in a quiet,
desolate area be aware that this will be a burglar's dream, so deter any potential criminal from
approaching your house by fitting security lights to the outside of your house
But what could happen if, in spite of the aforementioned precautions, a burglar or intruder has decided
to target your home Windows are usually the first point of entry for many intruders Downstairs windows provide easy access while upstairs windows can be reached with a ladder or by climbing up the drainpipe Before going to bed you should double-check that all windows and shutters are locked No matter how small your windows may be, it is surprising what a narrow gap a determined burglar can manage to get through For extra security, fit window locks to the inside of the window
What about entry via doors? Your back door and patio doors, which are easily forced open, should have top quality security locks fitted Even though this is expensive it will be money well spent Install a burglar alarm if you can afford it as another line of defense against intruders
A sobering fact is that not all intruders have to break and enter into a property Why go to the trouble of breaking in if you can just knock and be invited in? Beware of bogus officials or workmen and,
particularly if you are elderly, fit a chain and an eye hole so you can scrutinize callers at your leisure
When you do have callers never let anybody into your home unless you are absolutely sure they are genuine Ask to see an identity card, for example
Trang 7If you are in the frightening position of waking in the middle of the night and think you can hear an intruder, then on no account should you approach the intruder It is far better to telephone the police and wait for help
