around the holidays, many families dont consider taking proper measures to prevent their homes from suffering holiday thefts. with just a few simple steps, you can better make sure of the safety of your home during all of the holiday celebrations. here are a few tips for making it difficult to tell you are away from home.either have a trusted neighbor pick up your mail and newspapers, or tell your mailperson to hold your mail until you return. nothing says “hey, we are not home!” like when your postbox is filled with all kinds of mails and you have many different newspapers in your driveway.set several different lights in your house on random timers (随机定时器). dont leave your outdoor lights on all the time. instead, put your outside lights on timers to be on during the nights. if an outdoor light remains on for days at a time, it means that nobody is home to turn it off.if you have pets that you are not taking with you on vacation, leave them with a friend, rather than have someone come into your house every day to take care of them. when thefts see a neighbor or friend entering your house every day, they will know you are not home.close all your curtains when you leave town. this is effective to deter possible thefts, as no one can see what is in your house. if they dont know what there is to take, then the risk is even greater for them to break in. this article just has suggested a few tips to help you keep your house safe while you are on holiday. nothing can truly protect your home unless you have it monitored (监控) by a professional home security system.66. what is the main idea of the passage?a. to tell us many families suffering from the thefts while they are on holiday.b. to let the outdoor lights on all the time. c. to tell us how to prevent the thefts around the holidays. d. to tell you to have your neighbor go to your house to take care of your pet.67. if you are on holiday in other places, the lights in your house should .a. be kept on all the night b. be turned on in a random way c. be replaced by random timers d. be turned on only once a day68. to make sure your home is truly protected, what does the writer advise you to do?a. have all the curtains closed. b. stop your mail service at once. c. turn to your close neighbors or friends. d. equip your home with a security system.69. most of the tips mentioned in the text seem to .a. be very popular with families b. give a false impression on thefts. c. have no effect on preventing thefts d. be a little hard to be brought into effect.70. the underlined word “deter” in paragraph 5 probably means “ ”. a. prevent b. discover c. surprise d. attract dyou either have it, or you dont - a sense of direction. but why is it that some people could find their way across the sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?scientists say were all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. one theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. research being carried out at liverpool university supports this idea and suggests that if we dont use it, we lose it.“children as young as seven years old have the ability to find their way around,” says jim martland, research director of the project. “however, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”jim marland also said that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. he makes the following suggestions:if you are using a map, turn it
