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. Would you mind talking to the tenant in 4B and ask him to keep his music down, especially after 10:00 o’clock at night?
W: Oh... Who? Me?
M: Yes.
W: Why?
M: 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: 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: 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. 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: 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: Forget about the deposit.
This is the end of Conversation One.
Questions 1-5 are based on Conversation One.
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、Ask the tenant to turn off the music.
B、Ask the tenant to turn down the volume.
C、Ask the tenant to sleep after 10 o’clock.
D、Ask the tenant to get out of this apartment.
答案
B
解析
在对话开头,男士告诉女士,每到晚上九点钟,就会听到很大声的摇滚音乐,以致他无法入睡。因此他希望女士可以找住在4B公寓的房客谈一谈,让他把音乐的音量调小,特别是晚上10点以后。由此可见,B项为正确答案。
