The “aforementioned precautions” refer to steps that _______.
A. will tell a burglar if your house is empty or not
B. are the most important precautions to take to make your home safe
C. will stop a potential burglar
Thông tin: 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. (Nhưng điều gì có thể xảy ra nếu, bất chấp các biện pháp phòng ngừa nói trên, một tên trộm hoặc kẻ đột nhập đã quyết định nhắm mục tiêu vào nhà của bạn? Windows thường là điểm xâm nhập đầu tiên của nhiều kẻ xâm nhập. Cửa sổ ở tầng dưới dễ dàng tiếp cận trong khi cửa sổ ở tầng trên có thể lên bằng thang hoặc leo lên ống thoát nước. Trước khi đi ngủ, bạn nên kiểm tra kỹ xem tất cả các cửa sổ và cửa chớp đã được khóa chưa. Cho dù cửa sổ của bạn có nhỏ đến đâu, thật đáng ngạc nhiên là một khe hẹp mà một tên trộm kiên quyết có thể xoay sở để vượt qua. Để tăng cường bảo mật, hãy lắp khóa cửa sổ vào bên trong cửa sổ.)
