A large, detached(独立的)house not only ensures privacy. It is also a status symbol. The "magnificent home" is set in a big garden. Of course, this kind of house is an unrealistic dream for most people. But even a small detached house, surrounded by a garden, gives the required suggestion of rural life which is dear to the hearts of many British people. Most people would be happy to live in a cottage(村舍), and if this is a thatched(茅草的)cottage, suggestive of a pre-industrial age, so much the better.
Most people try to avoid living in a block of flats(what the Americans call "apartment blocks"). Flats, they feel, provide the least amount of privacy. With a few exceptions, mostly in certain locations in central London, flats are the cheapest kind of home. The people who live in them are those who cannot afford to live anywhere else.
The dislike of living in flats is very strong. In the 1950s millions of poorer people lived in old, cold, uncomfortable nineteenth century houses, often with only an outside toilet and no bathroom. During the next twenty years many of them were given new " high rise" blocks of flats to live in which, with central heating and bathrooms, were much more comfortable and were surrounded by grassy open spaces. But people hated their new homes. They said they felt cut off from the world with all those floors up. They missed the neighborliness. They couldn’ t keep a watchful eye on their children playing down there in those lovely green spaces. The new high-rise blocks quickly got broken. The lifts didn’ t work. The corridors were dark. Windows were damaged and were not repaired. There was graffiti all over the walls.
Which of the following might be the best title of this passage?
选项
A、British Culture
B、Houses, Not Flats
C、British Dream
D、Kinds of Houses
答案
B
解析
文章第一段讲述英国人所喜欢的房子类型;第二、三段讲述了英国人不喜欢住在公寓里以及不喜欢的原因,所以选项B更适合作本文的标题。而选项A“英国文化”,选项C“英国人的梦想”和选项D“房子的种类”均不能概括文章内容。故选B。
