Conversation Two


M: Oh hi, Ann. How have you been? And how's your new apartment working out?


W: Well, [23]that's what I'm calling about. You see, I've decided 1 to look for a new place.


M: Oh, what's the problem with your place now? I thought you liked the apartment.


W: Oh, I do, but it's a little far from campus, and the commute 2 is just killing 3 me. Do you think you could help? I thought you might know more about the housing situation near the university.


M: Alright. So, what kind of place are you looking for?


W: Well, [24]I'd like to share an apartment with one or two roommates within walking distance to school.


M: Okay, what's your budget like? I mean how much do you want to spend on rent?


W: Uh, somewhere under $200 a month, including utilities, if I could. Oh, and I'd prefer to rent a furnished apartment.


M: Hmm. And anything else?


W: Yeah, I need a parking space.


M: Well, I know there's an apartment complex around the corner that seems to have a few vacancies 4. [25]I'll drop by there on my way to class today.


W: Hey, thanks a lot.


M: No problem.


答案解析:


Questions 23 to 25 are based on the conversation you have just heard.


23. What is the main topic of the conversation?


[B]解析:女士开头就说:“那正是我打电话的原因。我决定另外找一套房子。”B选项中的"search for a new apartment"就是此句"look for a new place"的同义替换。口语中place可以指住处。各选项均与住房有关(apartment,rent,room,roommate属于同一个语义场);选项核心词分别是problems,search,cost,how to share。注意听清对话的焦点,用以辨别正确选项。


24. What is the most important quality of the new apartment Ann is looking for?


[A]解析:女士先是抱怨她现在住的地方离校园有点远,每天上下学烦死人,然后说:“我想和一两个人合租一套离学校只有步行距离的房子。”故答案是A。


25. How is the man going to help her?


[D]解析:男士提到,他知道附近一幢公寓综合楼似乎还有空房,他今天会“在去上学的路上顺道看看”。D的visit即对话中drop by的同义表达,因此选D。选项均是将来时态,表示他将来采取什么行动,一般是在对话尾巴处找答案。
