4. There are many other traps to avoid.The AA has found little awareness among drivers about safe parking. Most motorists questioned made no efforts to avoid parking in quiet spots-ust the places thieves' love.The AA advises drives to park in places with people around-thieves don't like audiences.

参考答案和解析
答案:A
解析:
该段最后一句(总结句)提到司机的离车不锁车门给盔车造成很好的机会。
第二段段首句的含义为“近十多年来,汽车犯罪比其他犯罪有一个大的增长。”而B句的含义为“汽车盗窃的上升”,此句义与该段段首句的含义吻合。因此,B是合适的选择。
第三段段首句的含义为“尽管参与汽车犯罪中有职业的罪犯,但90%的汽车盗窃是由抓住机会盗窃的人干的。”而选项C中就包含了opportunity这一线索词,因此C是合适的选择。
第四段段首句的含义为“有许多其他的陷阱需要避免。”选项A说“安全停放车辆”,选项D说“反盗窃的组织”,而很容易就能在第四段中发现多处parking这样的词,依据此判断A是合适的选择。
to blame… on…含义为“把……归罪于……”,此问题句的语义为“大多数的汽车犯罪应归罪于什么”,根据做前面的题所了解的信息可知司机的不小心是诱因,所以答案是A。
在选项B、C、D、E和F这些备选答案中,big只能与选项B中increase连用,所以答案肯定是B。
此问题句的语义为“大多数的汽车犯罪是由……造成的。”,根据做前面的题所了解的信息可知应该是非职业的罪犯干的,所以答案是C。
答案相关句在第四段的第二句和第三句。
