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 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 that you 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 It is far better to telephone the police and wait for help © Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 3/5 Question 36: A well-protected house A is less likely to be burgled B is regarded as a challenge by most criminals C is a lot of bother to maintain D is very unlikely to be burgled Question 37: According to the writer, we should A avoid leaving our house empty B only go out when we have to C always keep the curtains closed D give the impression that our house is occupied when we go out Question 38: The writer thinks that hiding a key under a doormat or in a flower pot A is predictable B is useful C is imaginative D is where you always find a spare key Question 39: What word best replaces “desolate” in paragraph 4?

The answer is radiation Hightech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it’s best to use mobile phones less often Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time Use your mobile phone only when you really need it Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often © Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 4/5 Question 43 According to the passage, cell phones are especially popular with young people because A they make them look more stylish B they keep the users alert all the time C they cannot be replaced by regular phones D they are indispensable in everyday communications Question 44: The word "means" in the passage most closely means A meanings B expression C transmission D method Question 45: Doctors have tentatively concluded that cell phones may A cause some mental malfunction B change their users' temperament C change their users' social behaviours D damage their users' emotions Question 46: The changes possibly caused by the cell phones are mainly concerned with A the smallest units of the brain B the mobility of the mind and the body C the resident memory D the arteries of the brain Question 47: The man mentioned in the passage, who used his cell phone too often, A had a problem with memory B abandoned his family C suffered serious loss of mental ability D could no longer think lucidly Question 48: The word "potentially" in the passage most closely means A certainly B obviously C privately D possibly Question 49: According to the passage, what makes mobile phones potentially harmful is A their radiant light B their raiding power C their power of attraction D their invisible rays Question 50 The most suitable title for the passage could be A Technological Innovations for Their Price B The Way Mobile Phones Work C The Reasons Why Mobile Phones Are Popular D Mobile Phones: A Must of Our Time _THE END _ © Đỗ Bình – THPT Liễn Sơn, Lập Thạch, Vĩnh Phúc – www.violet.vn/quocbinh72 Trang 5/5
