Many Americans don’t live in large, two and three story houses because [br]
In the United States, many people once lived in large, two- and three-story homes. Today, many people would like to live in such houses but most people can’t. They don’t have enough money to buy them or even to make the first payment. So, many people rent from month to month. But some Americans really want to live in a house of their own, so they build their own home. They buy a house that is situated in an area where houses are cheaper. Then they decorate it with old style furniture. Sometimes they can make an old house look more beautiful than a new one. Usually, it is not difficult for people to find an old home to buy. Many older people decide that they don’t need a big home after their children leave. So they sell their house and move into a comfortable apartment. But when people move into a house, they sometimes have problems. Home owners have to do their own maintenance. For example, if the roof leaks, one cannot ask the landlord to fix it. On the other hand, people can redesign their homes in any way they want without having to be afraid of being thrown out by the landlord.
选项
A、People will decorate the house with new style furniture after buying it.
B、All people are more willing to buy a house than to build a new one.
C、Many older people will sell their house after their children leave.
D、It’s difficult for people in America to find an old house to buy.
答案
C
解析
短文中提到,许多老年人在儿女离开以后,就决定不要大房子了,所以他们把房子卖掉,住进舒适的公寓里。故C正确。本题也可采用排除法来解答:A中的new应改为old;过于绝对化的选项通常不是答案(B中含有All一词):D与原文意思相反。
