Interviewer(M) Mrs. Elizabeth Mutwa(W)
Now, listen to Part One of the interview.
M: Welcome to our show.(1)Today we’re going to discuss some important questions about women and inheritance. For example, what happens to a woman when her husband dies, and who becomes the rightful owner of his property? Is there anything a woman can do to ensure that she receives the property? To help us answer these and other questions, we’ve invited a lawyer, Mrs. Elizabeth Mutwa, to join us. Welcome to the show, Mrs. Mutwa.
W: Thank you. It’s a pleasure to be here.
M: Mrs. Mutwa, let me start by asking you this. What are some of the concerns you have about women and the inheritance laws that affect them?
W: Every day I meet women whose husbands are dying.(2)These women are afraid that they are going to lose everything—their home, their land, their livestock...and they believe there is nothing they can do about it. That is a terrible, desperate feeling.
M: Yes, to feel that you are going to lose everything is terrifying.
W: Of course it is. And I’m sorry to say that often a woman does lose everything—because(3)the property is taken by her husband’s relatives. We call this property grabbing.
M: Is there any way to prevent property grabbing and return property to the woman?
W: Yes.(4)Women have legal rights to land and other properties. But unfortunately, most women don’t know this. So they don’t take any action.
M: You mean women think that the law is against them—so they don’t challenge it?
W: That’s right. But again, I want to make this very clear. The law is not against women. Women have rights to keep property— they just don’t know it!
M: So,(5)it’s important for women to understand what rights they have, and how the law works.
W: Exactly. Once they know the laws, they can take steps to make sure that they keep their home and their land.
This is the end of Part One of the interview. Questions 1 to 5 are based on what you have just heard.
1. What is the interview mainly about?
2. According to the interview, how do women probably feel when their husbands are dying?
3. According to the interview, what is property grabbing?
4. Why do the women do nothing to prevent property grabbing?
5. Which of the following is the way of preventing property grabbing for a woman?
选项
A、The law is against them.
B、They don’t know that they have rights to keep property.
C、The law is for them.
D、They don’t want to damage the relationship with their husbands’ relatives.
答案
B
解析
本题设题点在转折处。根据句(4)可知,在被问及女性如何防止遗产被抢占时,受访者指出,发生抢占遗产事件的主要原因在于女性不懂得用法律手段维护自己本该继承的遗产,故答案为[B]。
