人们几乎无法将蓄意行窃的盗贼拒之门外。

所能做的只是设法阻拦他片刻，从而使其暴露在巡警面前。

常识告诉我们，光照是犯罪行为的障碍物。

家门口必须安装一盏灯，并在晚间开着。

如果你碰巧是最晚一个回家，别只关门而不上锁。

如果你决定购买精密的电子报警系统，别忘了索要报警器的标志，并把它们张贴在窗户和门上。

此外，你还可以讲报警系统连接到警署。

A burglary is reported every 15 seconds in the United States . Statistics show burglars en-tered more than 2 million homes last year. Actually it is almost impossible to keep a determined burglar out. All you can do is discourage him for a few minutes, thus exposing him to police patrols or those wandering around. Common sense tells us that lighting is a barrier to criminal activity. A light should be fixed in the doorway and switched on at night. Believe it or not, some people, particularly children who happen to be the last to come in, leave their doors on the latch at night. Doors of hollow core, even when locked, are vulnerable to break-ins. Thus doors of solid core or steel are much preferred as they make it difficult for the burglar to pry open. If you decide to buy an alarm device, be sure to ask for its signs and put them up on both windows and doors. Finally, a word of warning —when you travel, make sure that
you have a trusted neighbor collect and keep all the deliveries of newspapers and mail until you return. This is because a collection of newspapers and mail on the front doorstep or in your mailbox is an advertisement that no one is home.

2005年最不寻常的事也许是联合国宣布这一年为世界物理学年。

这一年是爱因斯坦发表相对论100周年，也是他去世50周年。

1905年，爱因斯坦发表了五篇科学史上非常重要的论文，从而使物理学发生了突破性进展。

他的伟大成就可归之于他令人惊叹的想象力、不断地质疑和对权威的漠视。

毫无疑问，爱因斯坦是20世纪最伟大的科学家。

What was remarkable about 2005 was perhaps that the United Nations declared it “The World Year of Physics”. It was the 100th anniversary of Einstein’s theory of relativity and the 50th anniversary of his death. In 1905 Einstein publ ished five highly important essays in the history of science, thus revolutionizing p hysics. His great achievement can be credited to his impressive powers of imagin ation, constant questioning, and not giving a fig for authority. It is beyond doubt that Einstein was the greatest scientist in the 20th century.。
