M: Hello?
W: Dad? Is that you?
M: Hannah?
W: Dad. Yes, it’s me.
M: Hannah, have you found a place to live yet?
W: Yes! I think I have at last.
M: Wonderful!
W: I’m relieved, because I’m fed up looking. I didn’t think it was going to take me three weeks.
M: It hasn’t been easy for you. I suppose it’s the beginning of the academic year and you have all the new students looking for places as well. W: Yes, that’s probably the reason, and it also pushes up the rent.
M: Well, tell me, how much is it?
W: It isn’t cheap for this area. It’s 400 pounds a month.
M: That is much more than you had expected.
W: Yes, it is, but I can’t face looking any more. I want a place where I can put my things, instead of living out of a suitcase. I don’t want to stay in this hotel any longer.
M: I guess not. So what’s the new place like?
W: Oh, it’s really, really nice.
M: Oh, good.
W: It’s in a very quiet street. It’s a second-floor flat with one double bedroom, a large living room, kitchen and toilet and bathroom.
M: Sounds very nice.
W: Oh it is. And guess what?
M: Yes?
W: It’s got a small roof terrace looking on to the garden at the back.
M: Great.
W: And it’s big enough to have my plants and a small table and chairs.
M: Brilliant.
M: Now, what’s the address?
W: It’s 22b Whitehart Road.
M: Okay. I don’t think I know the road.
W: It’s a side road. But you do know the area because it’s off Garret Lane.
M: Oh right. Which end?
W: The other end from the stadium.
M: So it won’t be too noisy then.
W: You can still hear it from here when there’s a match on.
M: Mmm. When are we going to see you?
W: Well, I was going to come home on Friday evening after work. And then we could bring my things by van on Saturday afternoon. I want to move all of my stuff out to give you and Mum more space.
M: We’ll need to hire a van then.
W: It’s okay. I’ll pay for it.
M: No. No. Don’t worry. It’ll be a gift from your Mum and me.
W: Oh, all right. Thanks, Dad.
M: And if you’re taking everything we might need to hire a container lorry.
W: Oh, Dad!!
M: I’m only joking.
W: I know.
M: I’ll hire the van for the Saturday then. I can pick it up first thing in the morning.
W: Right.

选项 A、Because she doesn’t want to spend too much money.
B、Because most of the places have already been taken.
C、Because there aren’t many places to choose from in that area.
D、Because all the new students are looking for accommodation.

答案D

解析 ①选项都有Because,可知本题问原因。②对话里,父亲猜测因为现在是开学,所有新生都在找地方住,所以女儿很难找到合适的地方,D与之意思一致,其中选项looking for accommodation是原文looking for places的同义转换。③其他几个选项也有可能导致女士找住宿比较困难,但都不是父亲想到的原因。
