I fell in love with England because it was quaint — all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls’ houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London. I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it’s an ugly town now.
Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners — people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing. I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You’re forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.
As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p.m. I used to use it, but now I’m afraid.
The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that’s typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.
Questions 30 to 32 are based on the passage you have just heard.
30. Why doesn’t the speaker like London?
31. Where do people usually meet their friends in England?
32. Why did the speaker take her neighbour to France for Christmas?
选项
A、She is not used to the life there now.
B、She has lived there for seventeen years.
C、She prefers to live in an old-fashioned house.
D、She has to be polite to everyone she meets there.
答案
A
解析
短文中提到because I think it’s an ugly town now,随后说话者列举了不喜欢伦敦的理由:人们的礼貌荡然无存,休闲地方不再美好,夜晚不再安全等,由此可知,她现在已不习惯伦敦的生活,故答案为[A]。
