W: Good morning. Can I help you?
M: Yes, [1]I’d like to get some insurance for the contents of my home.
W: Fine. When did you move into the house?
M: A couple of weeks ago, [1]and it’s an apartment actually. I was told by the landlord that it would be a good idea to get some insurance for the furniture and other personal possessions.
W: Fine. Well, let’s get some details. What kind of apartment is it?
M: It’s a two-bedroom apartment.
W: What floor is it on?
M: Why do you need to know that?
W: [2]Because it affects the cost of the insurance. An apartment on the ground floor isn’t as protected as others and there’s more chance of a break-in.
M: Really? I didn’t know that. It’s on the third, no, second floor.
W: Second... and how much is the rent?
M: It’s $615 per month.
W: Good. And where is it located?
M: In Biggins Street, South Hills.
W: I see. And what things did you want to insure?
M: Well, what do you recommend?
W: Well, the most important things are those which you would normally find in a home. Things like the television, fridge and so on.
M: I see. Well, I’ve got a fridge and a stereo system which I’ve just bought from a friend.
W: And how much did you pay for the fridge?
M: Er, $450.
W: 50 or 15?
M: 50, [3]and the stereo system costs $1,150.
W: OK. Well, is there anything else you want to insure?
M: Yes, I’ve got a couple of watches and my CDs and books.
W: How much do you think they’re worth?
M: The watches are worth $1,000...
W: For both of them?
M: No, each one and, all together, the CDs and books cost me about $400.
W: OK, so the value of everything you want to insure is $4,000.
M: How much will the insurance cost?
W: Let me see, $4,000 divided by... plus 10%... right, so this kind of insurance, er, that’s Private Contents insurance, it comes to $184.00 for a twelve-month period.
M: $184. Well, that sounds pretty good. OK, I’ll take that policy.
M: Can I arrange the policy over the phone?
W: Sure, just let me get the details down. So that’s Mr...
M: Gavin Murray, that’s M-U-R-R-A-Y.
W: And the address is?
M: It’s 16C Biggins Street, South Hills.
W: Right, are you Australian?
M: No... [4]I was born in London, although my mother is from Tasmania.
W: Now, are you working at the moment?
M: No, [5]I’m a full-time student at Sydney University.
W: Right, good.
1. What does the man want to insure?

选项
A、Because she is curious to know where the man lives.
B、Because it has something to do with the cost of the insurance.
C、Because she wants to know if the man is telling the truth.
D、Because she wants to give some suggestions to the man.
答案
B
解析
①从各选项开头的Because可知本题问原因,听音时要留意表示原因的信息。②女士问男士的公寓在几楼,男士反问她为什么要知道那个。女士回答说因为楼层会对保费有影响,B项中的核心词the cost of the insurance与原文一致,为正确答案。③A“她很好奇男士住哪”、C“他想知道男士是否撒谎”和D“她想给男士一些建议”在原文中都没有相关信息。
