When we think of security for the home, most of us think of devices that will physically hinder another person. researchers have found that some simple, every day, fairly inexpensive objects can be as effective as much more expensive security systems.

which of the following sentences would most likely come next in the paragraph?

occupied
b. for example, leaving notes on doors/ windows is not a good idea.
c. for example, equipping the home with costly design system is a good silent
guard
d. for example, doors should only be opened after a visitor has been identified.

A

Explanation:

The passage is about fairly inexpensive objects that can protect your house. In answer b, leaving notes is inexpensive, but of course it is not effective. In answer c, it says costly design systems which is the opposite of the passage. In answer d, doors should only be open is an action, not a noun. However, in answer a, a radio is inexpensive, but keeping it on is effective. The technique of keeping the radio on is actually in the movie, "Home Alone 1."

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
