Why is Paula unhappy? [br]
M: Hello.
W: Hello, Sam. This is Paula Handson. Sorry to bother you. But I’m having a small problem I thought you might be able to help me with.
M: Sure, Paula. What’s up?
W: Well, you know Sarah and I moved into an off-campus apartment in the fall? Anyway we’ve been happy with it until the past couple of months.
M: Yeah. What happened?
W: Well, the dishwasher broke down. So we reported it to Ms. Connors, the owner. She said she’d take care of it. But a month went by and nothing happened.
M: Did you get back in touch with her?
W: I got a repairperson to give me an estimate, and then I sent it to her. When I didn’t hear from her, I had the repair done. And I deducted the cost from the rent check.
M: So what’s the problem?
W: She called here mad as a hornet. She said she could have gotten the repair done for less money. Now she’s threatening to evict us for not paying the full rent. Well, you are over at the law school. So I wondered if you would mind coming with Sarah and me when we go to talk to Ms. Connors. We’re supposed to meet with her tomorrow night at eight.
M: Sure. I haven’t studied a lot about contracts yet. But I’d be glad to help you straighten things out. Why don’t I stop by at about 7:30?
W: Thanks, Sam. You’re a lifesaver.
选项
A、The women didn’t pay their rent on time.
B、She can’t find anyone to repair the dishwasher.
C、She had to buy a new dishwasher.
D、Paula had some repairs done without her permission.
答案
D
解析
本题考查原因。根据原文可知是由于保拉在没有得到同意的前提下维修了洗碗机,并将费用从房租中减去,这才导致房东太太生气。选项D为正确答案。
