0	If you are worried about burglary, which in 1996√
00	cost insurance companies (the) millions of pounds in
	compensation, there is a good news for you.
	A traditional security system, with specially built
	security doors and detectors at each one door and
	window, is very expensive to install. Technology,
	though, will soon make the "intelligent home" as possible,
	and the whole system it will be included in the price
	of the house. New homes will have be built with a
	special electronic system which will connect up
	lights, heating, security and anything else the owner
	chooses. This means lights can to be programmed
	to turn on and off automatically at set times, making
	it seem as if someone is at the home even when
	everyone is out. Curtains can also be opened and
	closed by the computer, and all of intruders can be
	recorded by video camera, making it possible to protect yourself and your belongings easily.

14. Chief Inspector Ronald Lewis advises people on how to protect themselves from certain types of crime. Read the dialog and fill in the table below.

Presenter: Here with us this morning we have Chief Inspector Ronald Lewis to talk about protecting yourself from various types of crime. Welcome, Ronald.

Ronald: Thanks.

Presenter: Now, first of all, crimes like mugging seem completely uncontrollable. Is there anything we can do to protect ourselves?

Ronald: In fact, there is. People who behave in a frightened manner in the streets are obvious targets, so the best thing to do is act sure of yourself. If you don't look like a victim, you probably won't be one. Carrying a personal alarm is also a good idea. If you have the chance to attend self-defence classes, that can be useful as well.

Presenter: That sounds sensible. What about kid­napping?

Ronald: Kidnapping may not seem like a threat to most of us, but many children are at risk nowadays, so the best thing to do is teach them not to talk to strangers. If a stranger approaches them they should immediately go to the nearest safe place - a shop, the post office and so on - and tell somebody there what has happened. In the case of the rich and famous, a bodyguard is the obvious answer, but I don't think many of us can afford that!

Presenter: Mmm. Yes. More and more cars are being stolen nowadays, aren't they?

Ronald: Yes, and that's why more and more people choose to fit an alarm system in their vehicle. To protect your car, parking in an attended car park is always a good idea, and of course make sure your car is securely locked at all times.

Presenter: And to sum up ....?

Ronald: Just keep in mind that there is always something you can do to keep crime from happening to you. Just make sure you are aware of the dangers.
