M: So, your friend’s getting married on Saturday. What have you bought for her as a wedding gift? I find it hard to choose the right gift.
W: My friend and her fiance had a really good idea. They have cut out pictures from catalogues and pasted them in a notebook. The things in the pictures are what they want. People sign by the item they will buy.
M:(12)That’s clever! Then everyone knows that they are buying something the couple really need and there’s no chance of two people buying the same gift. What were in the notebook?
W:(13)Most of the things were household appliances. You know, everything from an iron through a vacuum cleaner to a cooker. I think it’s an excellent way for everyone who knows the couple to help them set their home.
M: So, what did you get them?
W: I bought a sewing machine. My friend likes making her own clothes, but her current sewing machine is quite old and has some problems.
M: What’s wrong with it?
W:(14)She says that after several years of use, it’s not working properly. When she uses it, it makes a funny noise.
M: Household appliances don’t seem to last for a long time nowadays.
W:(15)I think it’s because the manufacturers are constantly bringing out new models. They know that we will buy the new models, so the appliances don’t need to be made so durable to last more than five or ten years.
12. What is the man’s attitude towards the couple’s way of making a notebook?
13. What things were in the couple’s notebook?
14. What’s wrong with the couple’s current sewing machine?
15. What does the woman think of nowaday household appliances?

选项 A、The prices are higher than before.
B、The looks are more delicate than before.
C、The qualities are not as good as before.
D、They are not as convenient as before.

答案 C

解析 对话中,女士说她认为由于生产者不断生产出新型的产品,而且生产者知道消费者肯定会买新产品,于是产品就不需要被做得那么耐用了。由此可知女士认为家用电器不耐用是因为产品的质量不如从前了。
