When Mr. Finch retired, he bought a small cottage in a seaside village. The cottage was built in the late sixteenth century, but it was in very good condition. Mr. Finch was looking forward to a quiet life, but in the summer holidays he got a shock. Hundreds of tourists came to the seaside village. Mr. Finch’s cottage was the most interesting building in the village and many of the tourists came to see it. From morning till night there were tourists outside the cottage. They kept looking through the windows and many of them even went into Mr. Finch’s garden. This was too much for Mr. Finch. He decided to drive the unwelcome visitors away, so he put up a notice in the window. The notice said, "If you want to satisfy your curiosity, come in and look around. Price 5 pounds." Mr. Finch was sure that the visitors would stop coming, but he was wrong. The number of visitors increased and Mr. Finch spent every day showing them round his cottage. "I came here to retire, not to work as a guide," he complained. In the end, he sold the cottage and bought a small, modern house. It is an uninteresting little place and no one wants to see it. But it is certainly quiet and peaceful.
选项
A、In order to have more peace.
B、In order to earn more money.
C、In order to welcome more visitors.
D、In order to have a bigger garden.
答案
A
解析
[听力原文]
Why did Mr. Finch buy another house?
[听前预测] 四个选项均以In order to开头,由此推测本题考查做某事的目的。
[答案详解] 目的原因题[考频:10]。本题关键句为“In the end, he sold the cottage and bought a small,modern house... it is certainly quiet and peaceful.”可知他卖掉海边小屋又买了一座设计现代化的房子是为了安静。故正确答案为A)。
