A mind B settle C attend D control 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 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 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 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 scrutinise callers at your leisure When you 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 25: A well-protected house _ Edited by Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Page 2/5 A is very unlikely to be burgled B is less likely to be burgled C is regarded as a challenge by most criminals D is a lot of bother to maintain Question 26: According to the writer, we should _ A avoid leaving our house empty B always keep the curtains closed C give the impression that our house is occupied when we go out D only go out when we have to Question 27: The writer thinks that hiding a key under a doormat or flower pot _ A is where you always find a spare key B is a predictable place to hide it C is imaginative D is a useful place to hide it Question 28: The "aforementioned precautions" refer to steps that _ A are the most important, precautions to take to make your home safe B will stop a potential burglar C will not stop an intruder if he has decided to try and enter your house D will tell a burglar if your house is empty or not Question 29: Gaining entry to a house through a small window _ A is not as difficult as people think B is less likely to happen than gaining entry through a door C is tried only by very determined burglars D is surprisingly difficult Question 30: The best title for the text is _ A What To Do if A Burglar Breaks into Your Home B Increasing Household Crime C Burglary Statistics D Protecting Your Home from Intruders Question 31: According to the writer, window locks, security locks and burglar alarms _ A are absolutely essential items B are good value for money C cost a lot of money but are worth it D are luxury items Question 32: The writer argues that fitting a chain and an eye hole _ A avoids you having to invite people into your home B is only necessary for elderly people C will prevent your home being burgled D gives you time to check if the visitor is genuine Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks WHY WE MUST FIGHT THE DESTRUCTION When rainforests are cleared (33) millions of tons of carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere, affecting climatic conditions and threatening us all (34) severe flooding, drought and crop failure The rainforests (35) at least half of the Earth’s species At the current rate of devastation a(n) (36) 50 species worldwide become extinct every day One (37) four purchases from our chemists is derived from the rainforests Scientists are currently caught in a race (38) time to find rainforest treatment for cancer, AIDS and heart disease before they are lost forever Tribal people in the rainforests have been shot, poisoned and infected with disease to which they have no (39) -
