14．YOU CAN HELP!
Everyone was born with his own built-in burglar alarm．It's called the sense of sight and sound．Unfortunately，many of us go around with the alarm switched off．
We don't see the stranger wandering outside the house next door．
We don't notice the sounds from the flat upstairs．
（Weren't they supposed to be on holiday？）
The police can only do so much to prevent crime．There never can be enough of them to guard every home in every town．So they need your help in fighting with the burglars（窃贼），the vandals，and the car thieves．
Not，of course，by setting out to have a go every time you see something suspicious．It'll always be the job of the police to arrest criminals．
But by acting as a line of communication between them and your community．For instance，you probably know far more about your immediate neighborhoods than the police ever could．
A stranger in someone's garden would probably be far more obvious to you than it would to even the local police，if，of course，you were on the lookout．
That's the whole idea behind the Neighborhood Watch schemes，springing up around the country to create a spirit of watchfulness within a community，anything suspicious being reported to the police．
It's early days yet，but results so far are very encouraging．The crime figures are already dropping in many of the areas running the scheme．And all due to people like you．
32．The underlined word"them"refers to"B"．
A．criminals B．the police C．neighbours D．strangers
33．The advertisement points out that many people．B
A．are not ready to help the police
B．are not as watchful as they could be
C．don't look after their gardens well
D．don't tell their neighbors about their holidays
34．One of the ways we could help prevent crime is to．C
A．turn on the alarm system in our home
B．try to stop criminals from escaping
C．look out for people behaving suspiciously
D．inform the police if we hear noises upstairs
35．The purpose of the advertisement is to in their neighborhood．D
A ask people to join the police force
B advise people how to protect their homes
C warn people about the increasing risk of crime
D encourage people to be on watch for possible crime．

His mother in the house was looking out of the window and saw the two as they got closer and closer．In great fear，she ran toward the water，shouting to her son as loudly as she could．Hearing her voice，the little boy became alarmed and made a U-turn to swim to his mother．It was too late．Just as he reached her，the crocodile reached him．From the shore，the mother grabbed her little boy by the armsjust as the crocodile snatched his legs．That began an incredible tug-of-war （拔河） between the two．The crocodile was much stronger than the mother，but the mother was much too passionate to let go．A farmer happened to drive by，heard their screams，raced from his truck，took aim and shot the crocodile．

13．I got into the teaching profession by choice．I was then in 9th grade，when my mathematics teacher asked me to take a class for a few students to whom the subject seemed difficult．And believe me，I enjoyed the teaching．I never knew teaching would be so interesting．I loved my freshmen and was delighted to teach my so-called students who came up with lots of good questions．

19．Cold weather can be hard on pets，just like it can be hard on people．Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter （住所） as they are．Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time，thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors．This can put their pets in danger of serious illness．There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe．
Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad．If you have to take them out，stay outside with them．When you're cold enough to go inside，they probably are too．If you must leave them outside for a long time，make sure they have a warm，solid shelter against the wind，thick bedding，and plenty of non-frozen water．
If left alone outside，dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelters．They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere．Watch them closely when they are left outdoors，and provide them with shelter of good quality．Keep an eye on your pet's water．Sometimes owners don't realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can't get anything to drink．Animals that don't have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside，which may contain something unhealthy for them．
