问题     "Block patrol (巡逻,巡逻队)," "community watch" "civilian patrol. "
    They may have different names in different cities across the country but they all are civilian volunteer groups that help police department in major metropolitan (大城市的) areas. In the volunteer groups, men and women are trained by local police to watch for potential trouble in their neighborhood. Spotting a suspicious looking vehicle or person can help police to fight crime in the neighborhood.
    Aside from keeping an eye on the neighborhood, volunteers often perform other duties. Civilian volunteers may work at parades or other types of gatherings, freeing the police to do their main job—catching criminals. Volunteers in some cities also conduct surveys to make people aware of ways that they can protect themselves from being crime victims. Some volunteers help people to engrave identification numbers on their personal property. Such a number would make the retrieval (追回) of a stolen item easier. Other volunteers watch children who may need help going to and from school.
    If you are interested in becoming a part of the volunteer group in your area, contact your local police department.
As it is used in the third paragraph of the passage the word "engrave" means______.
选项 A、cut or carve (words, designs, etc. ) on (a hard surface)
B、occupy all the time or attention of (somebody)
C、print (a design, the date, lettering, etc. ) on paper, cloth or some other surface
D、make letters, pictures, etc. on paper by pressing an inked surface against it
答案A
解析 文中第三段倒数第二句说：“这样的数字将会使被盗物品的追回工作更容易些。”结合上一句“…to engrave identification numbers on their personal property”我们可以这样推断：要在私人财产上作标记数字以便追回，最实际的办法就是把数字刻上去。因此选项A正确。
