W: Hi, Mr. Brown. How’s your apartment working out for you?
M: Well, Ms. Nelson. That’s what I would like to talk to you about.
W: Is there any problem?
M: Well, I want to talk to you about the noise recently!
W: Oh...
M: Within the last week, almost every night, when the clock struck 9, some sort of rock-and-roll music just broke out loud. It was really too noisy. I couldn’t go to sleep even with my earplugs. [1]Would you mind talking to the tenant in 4B and ask him to keep his music down, especially after 10 o’clock at night?
W: Oh... Who? Me?
M: Yes. Why? The music is blaring almost every night, and it should be your job as a manager to take care of these things. Wouldn’t you agree?
W: [2]Hey, I just collect the rent. Besides, the man living there is the owner’s son, and he’s a big man.
M: But that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t do anything. At least remind him politely of the noise. He may be a reasonable man.
W: Well... Alright, I’ll see what I can do. Is there anything else?
M: Yes. Could you talk to the owners of the property next door about the pungent odor drifting this way? I couldn’t help throwing up every time when I smelled it. It was disgusting. Really, really disgusting.
W: [3]Well, the area is zoned for agricultural and livestock use, so there’s nothing much I can do about that. I’m very sorry for that. Ah, some tenants will use perfume to cover this unpleasant smell. Maybe you can try that way as well.
M: Well, what about that noise?
W: What noise? I don’t hear anything.
M: There, there it is again.
W: What noise?
M: That noise.
W: Oh, that noise. [4]I guess the military has resumed its exercises on the artillery range.
M: You have to be kidding. Can’t anything be done about it? Am I still safe living here? It looks as if I lived in some kind of battlefield. Oh my god!
W: For sure, you’re pretty safe here.
M: Can we do something?
W: I’ve protested that this activity, and these weekly activities should cease... within the next three to five years.
M: What did you say? Weekly activities? Do you mean that such noise breaks out regularly every week?
W: I’ll see what I can do. Hopefully we can find a solution.
M: You never told me about these problems before I signed the rental agreement. I think I had enough of it. I’m moving out tomorrow!
W: [5]Sir, if you move out that early, I’m afraid you can get back only a quarter of the $500 deposit. You’ve signed a 1-year commitment...
M: [5]Forget about the deposit.
1.What does the man want the women to do with the noisy tenant?
2.Why is the woman hesitant about talking to the noisy tenant?
3.How does the woman respond to the man’s second complaint?
4.What is the source of the man’s third complaint?
5.What do we learn about the rental agreement?
选项
A、The man cannot move out from the apartment.
B、The man should rent the apartment for 6 months.
C、The man only gets $500 back if he breaks it.
D、The man gets back $125 if he moves out earlier.
答案
D
解析
①对话中,女士提醒男士,如果他提前搬离的话,则只能拿回500美元押金的四分之一,因为他签合同的时候承诺住满一年。由此可见,D项“如果他提早搬离的话可以拿回125美元”正确。②A项“他不能搬离这间公寓”、B项“男士应该租这个公寓6个月”以及C项“男士违约只能得到500美元”不符合对话内容。因此都不正确。
