W: Hello.
M: Hi. I’m calling about the ad for the apartment found in today’s newspaper.
W: Okay. What would you like to know?
M: First of all, how big is it?
W: It’s a two-bedroom apartment with a living room, dining room and kitchen, and one bathroom. There’s also a place for a washer and dryer.
M: Okay, and how old is the apartment complex?
W: Well, let’s just say it has a lot of history. To be honest, my great grandfather built it during the 1960s, but it’s a very sturdy and sound structure.
M: Oh, and is the apartment furnished at all?
W: Yeah. The apartment is partially furnished with a refrigerator, a stove, and a dishwasher.
M: Okay. What’s the rent?
W: It’s $650 a month.
W: Wow. That is a little steep for me.
M: But you could always split the cost with a roommate.
M: Perhaps. Well, can I rent month-to-month, or do I have to sign a lease for a longer period of time?
W: We require a 6-month commitment for the apartment, and if you cancel the agreement anytime during that period, you lose your deposit.
M: Oh, and how much is the deposit?
W: It’s $400, and, of course, this money is used to repair damage or general wear and tear on our apartment, like the leaks in the roof.
M: Do I get my deposit back after I move out?
W: Generally speaking, we return the deposit, minus a small fee for, you know, cleaning the apartment for the next tenant, but if you trash the place, then don’t expect to get anything back.
M: Okay. Um... how close is the apartment to the university campus?
W: It’s about eight blocks from campus, but you can catch a number of busses right out in front.
M: Okay, and one last question. Are pets allowed?
W: Well, you can keep small pets like a hamster in a small cage, but we don’t allow larger animals like dogs, cats, or snakes. Things like that.
M: Well, I have a rat that I keep in a cage. Will that be okay?
W: Well, as long as it doesn’t escape, I guess that’s okay.
M: Is it possible for me to drop by and visit the apartment tomorrow morning?
W: Sure, but just remember we rent the apartment on a first-come, first-serve basis, so there’s no guarantee it’ll still be available then.
M: Okay. Thanks. Um... and where exactly is the apartment located?
W: It’s one block west of the waste water treatment plant. Call me again when you arrive.
M: Alright, Thank you. I’ll see you tomorrow. Bye.
W: Bye.
This is the end of Conversation One.
Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.
1. What kind of apartment does the man enquire about?
2. What should the man do if he rents the woman’s apartment?
3. What is the deposit for according to the woman?
4. In what condition will the man lose his deposit?
5. Whom will the woman rent the apartment to?
选项
A、He doesn’t renew the lease with woman.
B、He cancels the agreement after six months.
C、He leaves much trash there after moving out.
D、He destroys the apartment wilfully or maliciously.
答案
D
解析
①对话中,男士问房东搬出去的时候是否可以拿到押金,女士回答说,一般情况下会拿到,但是如果租客蓄意或随意破坏房屋的话,那就不要想着能拿到押金,故D为正确答案。录音中的trash作动词用,是“随意或蓄意破坏”的意思。②A项“不续租”在原文中没有提及过,故不选。女士要求最低为6个月的租期,可见B项“六个月后取消租约”是不会失去押金的,故B不正确。C项“搬出去后留下大量垃圾”是利用原文中的trash做干扰。
