W: Hello, Sam. This is Paula Hanson. Sony 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. The dishwasher broke down, so we reported it to Ms. Corners, 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. Very Angry. She said she could have gotten the repair done for less money.[13] Now, she’s threatening to force us to leave for not paying the full rent.
M: Hold on, Paula. It does sound pretty serious. But I’m sure you can all sit down and work this out.
W: Well, you’re over at the law school. So, I wondered if you would mind coming with Sarah and me when we go to talk with Ms. Corners. We’re supposed to meet with her tomorrow night at eight
M: Sure. I’ll be glad to help you straighten things out. Why don’t I stop by about 7:30?
W: Thanks, Sam. You are our lifesaver.
13. What is Paula’s problem?
14. Why is Ms. Corners angry?
15. Why does Paula think Sam can help her?
选项 A、Ms. Comers threatened to get her out of the rented apartment.
B、The dishwasher still didn’t work after being repaired.
C、The repairman charged more than she could afford.
D、Ms. Corners didn’t allow her to have the repair done.
答案 A
解析 女士提到：“现在，因为没有支付足够的房租，房东威胁说要强迫我们搬出去。”即，Paula的问题是A。选项A正好是对原文threatening to force us to leave的同义改写。B、C、D均与原文所说内容不一致。
