问题     When someone has money that he wants to put in a safe place, he naturally takes it to a bank. Until recently the very appearance of the bank building was designed to assure people that their money would be safe. There were thick, solid walls and barred windows. All the windows and doors were wired to set off the burglar alarms if anyone tried to force his way in. The vaults where the money was kept had huge, steel doors with complicated locks. Uniformed guards with pistols in their holsters were always on duty in the bank. The tellers’ cages - the cubicles where the bank clerks, or tellers, worked - actually resembled cages. They had gratings across the front, high sides and back, and a door that could be opened only by pushing a release button.
    The new style of bank design retains some of these protective features, but the idea now is to make the hank seem like a friendly place rather than a forbidding fortress. The tellers’ cages have been replaced by flat, unobstructed counters. The guards and burglar alarms are still there, but they are less noticeable than they used to be.
The windows and doors are wired in a bank building to ______.
选项 A、kill the burglar who tries to force his way in
B、warn the burglar who tries to force his way in
C、avoid the burglar from escaping
D、report the invading of a burglar
答案D
解析 参阅第一段第四句，银行门窗上的带电装置是为了在有人闯入时报警．而不是为了杀死或警告闯入者，也不是为了阻止闯入者逃出
