Why does English spelling have a reputation for being difficult? English was first written
down when Christian monks came to England in Anglo-Saxon (32)_____. They used the 23
letters of Latin to write down the sounds of Anglo-Saxon (33)________as they heard it.
However, English has a (34)________ range of basic sounds (over 40) than Latin. The alphabet
was too small, and so combinations of letters were needed to (35)_________ the different
sounds. Inevitably, there were inconsistencies in the way that letters were combined.
With the Norman invasion of England, the English language was put at risk. English
survived, but the spelling of many English words changed to follow French (36)________, and
many French words were introduced into the language. The result was more irregularity. When
the printing press was invented in the fifteenth century, many early printers of English texts spoke
other first languages.

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 43 to 50.
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 center or computer is enough to tempt any burglar.
Never leave a spare key in 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
4
VnDoc - Tải tài liệu, văn bản pháp luật, biểu mẫu miễn phí
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 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.
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.
Question 44: 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.

A. avoid leaving our house empty.
B. only go out when we have to.

C. is imaginative.
D. is where you always find a spare key
Question 47: What word best replaces “desolate” in paragraph 4?

A. will prevent your home being burgled.
