What are two advantages of living at the Mary Blake House? Click on 2 answers.
Listen to a conversation between a student (S) and the director (D) of student housing.
D: Well, hello! It has been awhile! How have you been?
S: Well, it’s hard to believe my freshmen year’s almost over.
D: Yes, time flies! Tell me, how was your experience?
S: I loved it!
D: Great!
S: And now it’s that time again. I’m preparing everything in time for September.
D: Alright then. So, you’re living at one of our program houses, the Eco House, if I remember correctly.
S: That’s right.
D: And you’d like to go back there next year?
S: Actually, no. I wouldn’t.
D: Oh, was there a problem?
S: No, nothing like that. All the residents of the Eco House are great: really committed to sustainable practices like recycling, organic gardening, energy conservation. lt’s just that...now I’d like to broaden my horizons and move on to new things, so I’d like to give the Mary Blake House a try.
D: Well, you do know the Mary Blake House doesn’t have a specific focus, a specific theme.
S: Yeah, I know, but they actually have faculty living in the same building alongside the students, and each week the faculty invite a different guest scholar to have dinner with everyone at the house.
D: That’s right, guest scholars from a variety of different educational backgrounds.
S: I’d have the chance to meet them and understand their insights and experiences. I’ve decided that I want to get a more expansive view of everything.
D: I can appreciate that.
S: So how do I go about applying?
D: Well, the application process is all online now. Online applications are far more convenient and time-saving for students.
S: So everything’s available right on your homepage?
D: Exactly. Now, something to keep in mind if your application is approved: residents of the Mary Blake House can interview to-be student assistants. Student assistants are university staff members who provide residents of the house with various types of support. Compensation includes a free room and house meal plan discount.
S: I’ll definitely consider that opportunity.
D: Just for our records, how’d you first learn about the Mary Blake House?
S: Oh, through my roommate. A classmate of hers lives there and I know they had a famous architect as a guest there last week, and this week a Broadway playwright. Why do you ask?
D: Well, we’ve been trying to generate publicity to get the word out about it since it’s a relatively new program.
S: Well, I’m sure it’ll take off and I’m hoping they’ll invite a famous journalist when I live there.
D: Why a journalist?
S: Well, l’m thinking of changing my major course of study to journalism. Freshmen year has been really eye-opening for me.
D: That’s great. It’s seems like you’d be in a good position to provide feedback about your experience at the Eco House. We conduct a program house review every three years and we’re conducting this review right now. Could I count on you to help us out with that? It’s just a form to fill out, a questionnaire.
S: I don’t see why not.

选项 A、She would join a classmate who currently lives at the Mary Blake House.
B、She would have an opportunity to qualify for staff discounts.
C、It would allow her to actively engage with guest scholars.
D、It would allow her to create a house theme with other students.

答案B,C

解析 细节题。B选项线索词为老师提出:Now,something to keep in mind if your application is approved…C选项线索词是老师提出Mary Blake的缺点:you do know the Mary Blake House doesn’t have…而后学生通过转折逻辑关系引出优点:Yeah,I know,but they actually have…A选项中的关键词classmate在文中的确有提及,但那是在描述学生获取Mary Blake宿舍信息的渠道,而不是选项中所述——同班同学住在Mary Blake宿舍。所以A选项是错误选项。D选项与原文表述相反,Mary Blake宿舍没有特定主题。
