M: All right... all right. You’ve made your point. But after all these years in London I would have preferred a bit of fresh air and greenery and... you know... the occasional toddle round the nine-hole golf course they mention. It is nine-hole, isn’t it? Yes... Anyway... It’s goodbye to that... to the "pleasant and neat gardens front and rear, apple tree and ornamental fish Pond, patio and..."
W: Stop talking through your hat. You’ve never been a lover of fresh air... your overcoat’s on as soon as the first gentle touch of the first spring breeze. And as for golf... well... we both know you love a beer at the clubhouse rather than any outdoor sports. Why is it that you’re always insisting that you like the country life, you love getting up early, you adore a good brisk walk, and so on and so on, when in fact...
M: But I do like the country... I would love getting up early... I’d often be out there having a good brisk walk... if only...
W: If only what?
M: If only... well... if only we lived somewhere that would make it all possible and worthwhile. Never mind. Colchester is good enough I suppose. There’ll be fields and trees nearby.
W: Exactly. Now just look at this, the description of this house. I think we ought to go and see it. It’s east of the town center, so you won’t be too boxed in as you say, and shops, schools and everything else are in easy reach. We’d have the best of both worlds, you with your golf and beer... me with my fenceless neighbors.
M: And there’s another consideration. It costs... what...? 2300 less. With that we’ll be saving for quite a nice sailing-boat.
W: Oh no!
M: You know Julia... I’ve always wanted to have a little sailing-boat... out there in the front garden. Then on Saturdays or Sundays or Bank Holidays we can hitch the trailer to the car and go to the nearest bit of river or sea. It’d do the children a world of good. I’d like them to have what I’ve never had... while they’re still young...

选项
A、It has fields and trees nearby.
B、Everything is convenient.
C、It has an ornamental fish pond.
D、It’s east of uptown.
答案
B
解析
谈到位于Colchester的房子时,女士说它在市中心的东部,不会太拥挤,商店、学校等设备一应俱全。可见Colchester的房子一切都很便利,故选B项。D项中的uptown指的是非中心区,而Colchester的房子在市中心。
