Why did Tom go to live in the country?
W: What made you take off to the country in the first place, Tom?
M: Well, I suppose anyone who moves to the country wants their life to be different in some way. I mean, if you have always lived in a city, something must happen to make you want to move. In my case, I just couldn’t face going back into an office again when it came to looking for a new job.
W: So you began thinking about the country?
M: No, at first I just thought about getting a different kind of work, social work with kids or old people.
W: And what happened? Why didn’t you?
M: I haven’t got any right diplomas, and it would have taken me two years to be qualified. I was not going back to formal education again.
W: So where did you decide to move?
M: I went right to Shropshire. [6C]The first problem though was how I could make a living — there are fewer jobs in the country, so I decided to start up on my own.
W: That’s ambitious. How did you start, had you got any skills?
M: I’d always [7D]had a garden and grown some vegetables and flowers, [5B]so I thought of a small holding, a kind of farm. But when I looked at the price, I changed my mind.
W: OK, a farm’s out, so what next?
M: I settled on a nursery and bought my way into a partnership…
W: Well, ladies and gentlemen, don’t go away — we are coming back to Tom’s story after the advertisements.
选项
A、Because he liked working with children.
B、Because he lost his job.
C、Because he hated the city.
D、Because he wanted to be a farmer.
答案
B
解析
题目问的是Tom要去乡下生活的原因,由对话中的I just couldn’t face going back into an office again when…looking for a new job可以推断,他失业了,所以要搬到乡下去,故答案为[B]。
