Anchor:
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 that 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、Respect the right of the neighbor.
B、Approach the neighbor politely.
C、Teach the neighbor a lesson directly.
D、Get support from other neighbors.
答案
D
解析
录音最后提到,本月的《家庭圈子》建议有时要团结其他邻居,依靠群众的力量,D项“争取其他邻居的支持”与录音原文表述一致,是正确答案。演讲人只肯定了邻居享有在自己家中煮食的权利,而不是要求当事人尊重他人权利,A项错误。B项是主讲人建议的做法,但并非杂志的建议。C项和主讲人的建议刚好相反,主讲人提到不可联合其他邻居对付隔壁的邻居,故C项“直接教训邻居一顿”错误。
