M: Hi, Shelley. Come on in.
W: Uh, yeah, I stopped by to see if you were still looking for a roommate to share your house.
M: Yep. I sure am. Ever since I cut back on my working hours to go to school, I’ve been really strapped for cash. Hey, let me show you around the place. Uh, here’s the living room.
W: Oh. It looks like you could use a new carpet... and those stains?
M: Well. I’ve had a few problems with some former roommates. I know it needs to be cleaned, but I just don’t have the money to do it right now.
W: Oh. And what about the kitchen?
M: Right this way. Look. It’s completely furnished with all the latest appliances, except... Well, the refrigerator door is broken... a little bit... and it won’t shut all the way. It needs fixing, but don’t worry. I’ve pushed a box against it to keep it shut.
W: Hmm. Great. Well, how about the bathroom? ... No, no. Don’t tell me. The toilet is clogged or the sink has a few leaks.
M: No, those work fine. Well, there’s another slight problem. The windows. I’ve put up a piece of cardboard to keep out the rain and snow, and if it gets a little cold, you can always turn up the heat.
W: Hey, I think I’ve seen enough. I can’t believe you’ve survived under these conditions.
M: So what do you think? You really can’t beat a place like this for $450 a month. So it has its problems, but we can fix those.
W: Uh, no, thank you. I think I’ve seen enough.
8. Why does the man need to share his apartment with a roommate?
9. What is true about the man’s house?
10. What has the man done to temporarily fix the refrigerator door?
11. What will Shelley probably do after she’s seen the place?
选项
A、He finds it hard to afford the rent all by himself.
B、He feels lonely living all by himself.
C、He needs to find somebody to make the apartment more comfortable.
D、He wants to get help with his courses from his roommate.
答案
A
解析
对话开始,女士就提出了对话主题:看男士是否还需要人合租。男士急切地说:“要啊!自从为了上学减少了工作时间以来,我的钱就很紧张了。”故A正确。从选项来看,本题问男士的情形。答题关键是男士说的strapped for cash,它与A中的afford the rent构成紧密的相关性。其他选项就没有这种相关的内容。(口语中,cash即money,be strapped即“身无分文的”。)
