For twenty-five years, I was a full-time thief, specializing in picking pockets. Where I come from in southeast London, thats an honorable profession. [32]Anyone can break in a house and steal things, but picking somebodys pocket takes skill. My sister and I were among the most successful pickpocket teams in London. We worked in hotel and theatre lobbies, airports, shopping centers and restaurants. Now we dont steal any more, but this crime is worldwide. Heres how to protect yourself. Professional pickpockets do not see victims-only handbags, jewels and money. [33]Mothers with babies, the elderly, and the disabled are all fair game. My preferred target was the lone female, handbag at her side-the right side to be exact. So if Im next to her, I can reach it cautiously with my right hand across my body. only about one woman in a thousand carries her bag on the left, and I tended to steer clear of them. Women whose bags are hanging in front of them are tricky for the pickpocket as there isnt a blind side. If you want to make it even harder, use a bag with handles rather than a strap. [34]For men, one of the best places to keep a wallet is in the back pocket of tight trousers.Youll feel any attempts to move it. Another good place is in the buttoned-up inside pocket of a jacket. There is just no way in. Even better, keep wallets attached to a cord or chain that is fastened to a belt. [35]A pickpocket needs targets who are relaxed and off-guard. The perfect setting is a clothing store. When customers wander among the racks they are completely absorbed in the items they hold up. The presence of a uniformed security guard is even better. A false sense of security makes a pickpockets job much simpler.
Questions 32 to 35 are based on the passage you have just heard.
32. Why does the speaker say that picking somebodys pocket is an honorable profession in southeast London?
正确答案：A
分析：题目询问为何作者说在伦敦东南部，扒窃是一个光荣的职业。重点是要听到an honorable profession之后的那句话：“其他人都可以闯入一栋住宅偷东西，但扒窃需要技术。”故答案为A。符合“听到什么选什么的”原则。
33. According to the speaker, who is most likely to become a victim of pickpockets?
正确答案：C
分析：题目询问依据作者所说，哪个最大概成为扒手的猎物。重点是要听到“携带婴儿的母亲，上了年龄的人和残疾人都是可以下手的对象。我更喜欢的目的是无人伴随的女人，手提包挎在侧面——确切地说，是挎在右边。”这两句话说明了哪种人可能成为扒手的目的，而第2句中的“preferred更喜欢的”说明是最大概的，故选C。
34. In the speakers opinion, whats the best place for a man to keep his wallet?
正确答案：A
分析：题目询问依据作者的怎么看，男性放钱包的最好地方是哪儿。重点是要听到“对于男性来讲，紧身长裤后面的口袋是放钱包的最好地方之一。”故答案为A。作者说放钱包的另一个好地方是上衣里面的口袋，而不是B;C、D在文中均未提及。
35. What is the perfect setting for picking pockets according to the speaker?
正确答案：B
分析：题目询问依据作者所说，扒窃的最好地址是哪儿。重点是要听到“一个扒手需要发现放松并且毫无警惕的目的。最好地址是服饰店。”故选B。
