How does the man know Ms. Green’s apartment is available for renting? [originalt

M: Is this Ms. Green?
W: Yes, are you calling at for renting the apartment?
M: Yes, is it still available?
W: How did you find out about it?
M:(8)I was given your address by the student accommodation agency.
W: Well, you’re welcome to come in and see it.
M: Thank you.
W: Are you students?
M: Yes, I’m at the University of Chicago.
W: Sounds great. So, do you want to share with any roommates or live alone?
M: I prefer to live alone. I need my peace and quiet.
W: Good.(9-1)That will make everything simpler. I like to keep things simple.
M: Me too. And I like my privacy.
W: OK, now I’ll show you the apartment.(9-2)This is the balcony, and that is the kitchen. The bedroom is over there.
M: This place is perfect! It’s so quiet! But(9-3)the kitchen is kind of small.
W: You won’t need much space if you’re cooking for one.
M: Well, I guess that’s true. So how much do you charge for it?
W:(9 -4)(10)The rent’s $200 per month. That includes electricity, but no gas. And you need to pay 3 months’ rent each time, and for the first time. I will need another month’s rent as deposit in case something happens. Is that OK with you?
M: Great! It’s OK with me. I think I’ll take the apartment.
W: You seem like the ideal tenant. OK, let me get the contract.
