II 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 from 03 to 10.
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 neighbour 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 wrill be money well spent Install a burglar alarm if you can afford it as another line of defence 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 scrutinise 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
If 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 Far better to telephone the police and wait for help
Question 3: According to the writer, window locks, security locks and burglar alarms
A are absolutely essential items B are good value for money.
C are luxury items D cost a lot of money but are worth it
Question 4: According to the writer, we should ….
A give the impression that our house is occupied when we go out B only go out when we have to.
C always keep the curtains closed D avoid leaving our house empty.
Question 5: The writer thinks that hiding a key under a doormat or flower pot…
A is where you always find a spare key B is imaginative.
C is a predictable place to hide it D is a useful place to hide it.
Question 6: The "aforementioned precautions" refer to steps that…
A will stop a potential burglar.
B will not stop an intruder if he has decided to try and enter your house
C will tell a burglar if your house is empty or not.
D are the most important, precautions to take to make your home safe.
Question 7: A well-protected house ….
A is a lot of bother to maintain B is very unlikely to be burgled.
C is regarded as a challenge by most criminals D is less likely to be burgled
Question 8: Gaining entry to a house through a small window…
Trang 2A is surprisingly difficult B is not as difficult as people think
C is tried only by very determined burglars D is less likely to happen than gaining entry through a door.
Question 9: The writer argues that fitting a chain and an eye hole….
A is only necessary for elderly people.
B avoids you having to invite people into your home.
C will prevent your home being burgled.
D gives you time to check if the visitor is genuine
Question 10: The best title for the text is…
A Protecting Your Home from Intruders B Burglary Statistics.
C What To Do if A Burglar Breaks into Your Home D Increasing Household Crime.

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 neighbour 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
Trang 11What 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 wrill be money well spent Install a burglar alarm if you can afford it as another line of defence 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 scrutinise 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
If 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 Far better to telephone the police and wait for help
