五Recently

some

houses

in

our

community

have

beenbroken

into.

I

would

like

togiveyou

some

suggestions

about

how

to

prevent

from

stealing（盜竊).

First,

let's

talk

about

lighting.

We

should

turn

onthe

outside

lights

at

night.

Insidethehouse,

it's

a

goodidea

to

put

automatic

timers（自動(dòng)定時(shí)器）

on

lights．When

you

are

out,

it

will

still

look

like

someone

is

athome.

If

you

live

in

an

apartmentbuilding,

make

sure

that

there's

good

lighting

in

the

garages

and

in

thehallways.

Next,

let's

talk

about

locks.

First

of

all,cheaplocks

are

not

safe.

You

shouldbuy

special

locks

to

lockyourdoors

and

windows.

3.

Remember

to

lock

yourdoors

and

windows,

even

when

you

leaveforjust

aminute.

Did

you

know

that

half

of

the

thieves

break

inthrough

unlocked

doors

andwindows?

My

next

suggestion

is

not

to

keep

lots

of

money

in

the

house,

It's

wise

to

put

your

money

in

a

bank.

Youshould

put

marks

on

your

other

valuables,

like

televisions,

stereosand

cameras,

so

that

the

police

canreturn

them

to

you

if

they

are

found.

4.

Believe

it

or

not,ifyoufollow

all

of

thesesuggestions

above,

your

house

willbesafer.
