Well, for years, people have been trying to compete with their neighbors, how about actually trying to get along with them? Joining us with some simple tips on how to deal with those likeable and not so likeable neighbors is Betty Wong; she is the Executive Editor of Family Circle magazine. Good morning, Betty. Betty Wong:
Good morning, everyone. First, you might ask why it is important to have a good relationship with your neighbors. Well, you know, your home is your shelter. And how you get along with your neighbors really plays a large part in your health wellbeing and happiness. And so it’s important at least to establish a good, cordial, or at least polite relationship with your neighbors.
When you move into a neighborhood, you should establish relationships. If the neighbors don’t reach out to you, don’t assume that they are being rude or unfriendly. After a few days, go ahead and introduce yourself, because I think once you make friends with them, it makes that much easier to prevent problems later on, or maybe ask them for a favor like if you are on a vacation and you need them to water your plants and pick up your mail. It’s much easier when you know them personally.
Yeah, neighbors can be really really helpful, but of course they can also be annoying. For example, loud music is one of those top complaints, and I think you know for most reasons… people probably aren’t even aware that they are causing problems for their neighbors. And I think if you bring it up to those your neighbors’ attention they will be more than happy to fix it. But don’t just call the police. You could say something like, you know, I’m really a light sleeper or I suffer from headaches. Can you help me out by turning down the music during those evening hours or the early morning, or come up with a compromise that works for both of you, a resolution that works for both of you.
There is another really sensitive situation: Unpleasant smells. But your neighbors are just as entitled to cook whatever she likes in the comfort of her own home. You should try to approach them, you know, politely, reasonably, and if that doesn’t work, you could also just talk to management because maybe there is something wrong with your building’s ventilation system. Besides, this month’s Family Circle mentions the power in numbers, which means sometimes it does help to get support from your fellow neighbors, but you have to be sensitive that you are not ganging up on your next door neighbor. For more on this topic and others, you can refer to my magazine.
16. What is the topic of the talk today?
17. What is much easier to do after making friends with the neighbors?
18. What method can be used to solve the loud music problem?
19. What does Family Circle suggest to do concerning unpleasant smells from a neighbor?
选项
A、Go for a vocation with them.
B、Be free from problems.
C、Ask them for a favor.
D、Help out your neighbors.
答案
C
解析
Betty Wong指出,与邻居成为朋友能避免日后出现问题,还能请他们帮忙做一些事情(ask them for a favor),C项与录音表述一致。录音中说的是当你外出度假,可以请邻居帮忙浇花或代收邮件,而不是A项 “和他们一起出游”。B项说法过于绝对,Betty Wong说的是与邻居交友可以避免日后的问题,而不是一劳永逸,B项错误。D项“帮助你的邻居”没有在讲座中提到,故排除。
